TheRealTinkerbell Posted July 5, 2007 Posted July 5, 2007 I also got the signature shot of the trip, all 4 of them bending over in a line at the same time to pick up some tubes! if we get 100 responses, the Hot and Sexy photo shoot will go up!  Umm...in that case, I would like to see more pictures of Big Mike please! Plus, the 13 year old fanboys of the hoffman girl could use a puberty booster....
EmBy Posted July 5, 2007 Posted July 5, 2007 I wanna see more of big mike, I wanna see more of big mike! Â Does that count as 2?
larrygator Posted July 5, 2007 Posted July 5, 2007 I was with Big Mike at the waterpark, and we do want to see more pictures of Big Mike. Just not Big Mike at the waterpark.
AJMouse Posted July 5, 2007 Posted July 5, 2007 Just to help everyone out: More of Big Mike please! hehe. Â Theme Park Review Forum Index -> Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Bouncy Bouncy! << mhahaha Bouncy Bouncy! Â Â Am I a "Full Fledged Bouncy Bouncy Enthusiast!" now?
cfc Posted July 5, 2007 Posted July 5, 2007 Hmmm...well it depends- why is he called Big Mike? Â Here's one reason. There might be others. Before being forced to abandon the Happy Gater at Coney Beach.
CoasterFanatic Posted July 5, 2007 Posted July 5, 2007 Dammit, I was the first member of the Retarded Yellow Hat Club, but my damn hat is still in Norway!!! Â That's what you think ....
BarryH Posted July 5, 2007 Posted July 5, 2007 Port Aventura was a Universal park many moons ago, so that's why it is awesome! Great photos! Furious Baco looks quite fun! Â I vote for Big Mike's photos. Bring it on, baby!
garbear27 Posted July 5, 2007 Posted July 5, 2007 Write on here that you want to see more of Big Mike and if we get 100 responses, the Hot and Sexy photo shoot will go up! Â I want to see more Big Mike!! Â Glad y'all are having a good time!
ParkTrips Posted July 5, 2007 Posted July 5, 2007 I am going to laugh when there is a TR of nothing but photos of Big Mike.
chaos_theory1 Posted July 5, 2007 Posted July 5, 2007 wow i hadnt realised PA was no longer universal, why did they let it go ? Â cant wait for more updates!!
Virdu_ Posted July 5, 2007 Posted July 5, 2007 Port Aventura was a Universal park many moons ago, so that's why it is awesome!  PortAventura was originally projected by Anheuser Busch in asociation with the Catalan Government, they both planned and built the park, and in 1998 Universal bought some actions(¿?) of the park, so the managment of the park was: laCaixa(Catalan Bank) 40%, Universal Studios 37%, Anheuser Busch 20%. In 2004 Universal decided to sell their park actions, so the managment of the park was: La Caixa 80%, Anheuser Busch 16%, Other 5%, but the parck gives a 1'5% of the benefit to Universal so they can have their characters and their technology in rides & shows like Templo del Fuego, FiestAventura or Sea Oddissey.  So, maybe PortAventura is the luckiest park in Europe, it was managed by two of the most important park managers of the world. I has to be a cool park and it is!  Can't wait for the TRs in Tibidabo and Festilandia, tomorrow I'll see you at Terra MÃtica

A while ago, I've been searching on the net for the exact role Universal has in PA, but couldn't find it anywhere.
nemesis-storm Posted July 5, 2007 Posted July 5, 2007 I thought the Tussauds had a big involvement with the park when it opened ?. Â I know John Wardley did a lot of work for the park.
chaos_theory1 Posted July 5, 2007 Posted July 5, 2007 john wardley helped design stampida and Dragon khan didnt he?

Guy T. Koepp Posted July 5, 2007 Posted July 5, 2007 Laughing all the way through this TR. I looks like you all are having a great time. Keep up the good work and have fun. Â Personaly, I don't believe Big Mike has any photos of any of the Girls of TPR. I think this is just a ploy for him to get leverage to have more pictures of him included in the TRs. Â I call shenanigans!
cfc Posted July 6, 2007 Posted July 6, 2007 ^Yeah, just like he claimed to be a media day for Griffon, yet I never laid eyes on the dude. Hell, I bet he isn't even in Spain! He's paid one of the mods to photoshop him into some of the pics. Â I call Guy's shenanigans and raise one stack of poppycock!
Guy T. Koepp Posted July 6, 2007 Posted July 6, 2007 ^I see your poppycock, and raise you a hogwash! Â C'mon Big Mike! Show us your hand! If'n your not bluffin'.
