TR: Boomers in Livermore

[Angry_Gumball]

Yestderday, I went with a group of friends (well actually it was for a birthday) to Boomers in Livermore. Sorry, no photos =( I had the camera ready but decided not to bring it as I would probably get wet and stuff. We got there around 3:00. We did the unlimited ride pass so that meant re-rides. Now I just wish they had a coaster but anyway, here's how the day went:

First ride- We went on the bumper boats becaus it was getting hot. I just squirted my brother and his friends while spinning donuts on the water. After getting wet I headed off to the go kart track.

Next 6 rides or so: I just kept reriding the go karts and getting first place. Finally, I took a break and got some pizza. I then went onto the bumper boats with all of our group and they all ganged up on me. I was cornered and my boat was stuck. I came off dripping wet, head to toe. Honestly, I didn't think I'd get that wet on them as the squirt is not like a super soaker. So, more rides on the go karts. Now here's where some problems came in. I accidentally spun some random kid out and did about 3 laps before he had any help which wouldn't have came if I didn't stop by the station and inform the attendants. More rides on the go karts and finally took a break. I went into the arcade for some DDR but the token machine wasn't working. Back to the go karts for the last ride. Here's where some idiots came in. Main rule stressed is NO BUMPING. I can see accidental bumps but not like what has happened. To begin with, in the station some kid behind the driver behind me kept ramming into us while waiting. As the race begins, this ghetto wangster-like dude and his father (old enough to be my grand father) were ramming me into the walls when I tried to pass them up. I finally got tired of it and started ramming back and nearly spun out Mr. Ghetto Boy. (This teenage kid had some of the most ridiculous looking teeth: It looked like aluminum foil on his teeth or that he had tons of cavitys and they put caps on 'em.) I also rear ended his father a few times due to annoyance. Last lap of the race comes and my car is shut off. The attendent tells me to pull to the side as I sat out the last lap. Nothing was done with Mr. Ghetto Boy and his dad. I spotted them sitting together in the arcade as I told one of my friend about how immature the father was and how people like to pull chicken sh** moves. Finally headed home still wet from the bumper boats around midnight.

 

Pluses of the day: Go karts, unlimited rides

Minuses of the day: Poor capacity and loading issues with bumper boats, reckless go kart drivers and lazy attendents.
