THE BIG MIKE ROAD SHOW - 10 YEAR ANNIVERSARY PICS ON PG 769

[JustCoasters]

So Big Mike

What about the coasters you were unable to ride?

And how can you be first?

I have fewer left to ride then you,

and I also have ridden several coasters you were not allowed to ride.

Would you like a complete list?

Peace

JC

[Big Mike]

Hey John!

 

Remember when you asked me this before, I count mountain and powered coasters and you don't.

 

* I just double checked and you are quite a distance behind according to the coasters I count, which are all of them. Actually you are not even in 2nd as Mikey has passed you.

 

If it makes you feel better, send me your list.

 

 

Peace, Big Mike

John

 

Why don't you post your list somewhere and let the folks be the judge rather than just talking smack. You got the data let everybody see it.

[JustCoasters]

Talking Smack... you are so full of it.

First there is only one alpine coaster in this country I haven't ridden, there are at least 4 that you haven't.

And actually 'Mikey' is passing you up for the most part.

And I will post the list in a short time, but you will have to develop a taste for crow!

Last but not least your last credit in Corona park is a relocate from Jeepers in Southfield.

You need to do your homework or are Relocates valid as New Coasters.

Peace

JC

[Big Mike]

John, who are you talking to??

 

I am not talking smack whatsoever if you mean me.

 

1st, I love Mikey and talk to him on a constant basis and I am sure he will pass me, but that's ok, if anyone does, he would be the best choice. Mikey even wrote me two days ago wondering if we could both manage to ride our last USA coaster together.

 

That's cool, I wish you would act the same way too??? You take this stuff wayyyyyy too personal lol.

 

Of course I know Corona is a relocation, I know everything about every USA coaster. I went there today because it is a "park" I have not been to and declared that on the post you obviously are stalking. I did not lower my coasters needed in the USA.

 

I will see you next week and maybe we can chat about your worries.

 

 

Peace, Big Mike

You got that right Bob!!!

 

It takes a few hours to actually do an update and when only 200 people see it, I can't justify spending that much time on it anymore sadly!

[orangecats2]

What is the status of the 2012 ducky contest?

Thanks.

[Big Mike]

I am going to put up an update every once in a while which will contain a contest round in every update. Once everything is done, I will send out a mass mailing of t-shirt prizes and the grand prize!

[orangecats2]

So the lottery number even or odd is not going on?

 

Sorry for all the ???'s I'm just confused and still hoping to win a time share stay.

[Big Mike]

Yes, round one has been played, on my next update we will play round 2 and eliminate half more and so on and so on until only 1?remains!

[sspaz1000]

Just so you know Big Mike, I appreciate the updates on FB and here on TPR. FB let's me see where you are at in the moment, and TPR lets me see the big picture. Cause I know I always miss some FB posts.

 

Keep up the good work in both places

[Rollercoaster Rider]

Same Here.

[nrs2420]

I don't post much but I do have The Big Mike Roadshow opened in a tab at all times. I don't have FB or any of the other things so this is the only way I get updates from you.

[depotrat]

Mike,

 

Rather thn doing full time consuming PTRs maybe you could just post your trip plans and how you are doing on your USA coaster quest on here for us non FB folks.

[Coaster Palooza]

Bringing back the love to the Big Mike Road Show!

 

Hey Big man, I hope you can find the time to update this thread with a few picks and maybe a quick story!

[Big Mike]

Big Mike is testing this new app for Theme Park Review that Robb sent an email about!

 

This would work great for Big Mike since he takes most pictures from his IPhone nowadays and would make it much easier to update this thread on the go with up to the minute updates!

 

This was yesterday at Phoenix Phall Phunfest at Knoebels, where I finally got to ride Flying Turns!!!!!

 

Flying Turns was fun and Big Mike's advice is to do some homework early and set up your seat partners beforehand!!!!!

 

Each car can hold up to 400 pounds and they actually have a scale you have to stand on and get weighed!

 

The more the train weighs, the faster and higher up the wall the cars go!!!

 

Have each car maxed out as close to 400 pounds for a total of 1,200!!!!!!!

 

I had a kid behind me and a skinny dad and his little girl in front of me. We gave away about 700 pounds and the ride was limited.

 

Also, Big Mike brought Mom as well as Lucky Dog with him for their first Knoebels experience!!

 

Lucky Dog chickened out of riding the 4 rides he was allowed to, but it was still nice to have him there!!!

 

Hope this update works and hope you enjoy!

 

 

Peace, Big Mike

Looks like you had a great time Big mike! Great seeing you yesterday!

[Coaster Palooza]

Great post Mike! I'm glad that Robb's new app works for you. Hopefully the Big Mike Road Show will have many more updates.

[traincrossin]

Man, I really have to make my way up to Knoebels sometime. Now that Flying Turns is finally open I should go next year when I get the chance! Nicole, you want to show me around sometime?

[orangecats2]

I really want to get to Knoebels next year too. Maybe Derek Ruth will show me around???

[sspaz1000]

Of course Patrick! knoebels is my happy place.

[Brandy524]

Looks like fun!
