kidcoaster 2 Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 Walk on the right side of the paths. Keep up with a moving queue line. Figure out your group seating before you pick your seats. Don't make a table at a busy restaurant a "hang out". Make sure everyone enters the queue at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vonni Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 If someone accidentally bumps into you on the Midways or in the queue, dont be a jerk about it. Accidents happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
netdvn Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 Simple stuff  -Be courteous to others around you. -Carry only essentials. No need for lockers if you don't carry much with you. Cargo pants are your friend. -If you puke, tell somebody before you run off -Dont cause a scene - Wear comfy shoes - Drink lots of water. Especially on hot days - Use common sense. Follow directions, follow signs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cullvion Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 If a family or a group of friends want to have a ride together but you are in the way so it'd be seperate rides, LET THEM THROUGH. It's only a few trains you'll miss and it'll make they're day much more fun and less time-consuming waiting for the rest of the people to get off.

gerstlaueringvar Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 Ask the staffs at drink booth for free ice water when you don't have refill cups or the park's refill policy costs too much. Yup, that's what I did at my NO.1 park Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simon8899 Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 ^Here in Germany they would tell you to drink from the water faucet at the toilet. Needless to say all water here is drinking water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simon8899 Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 I guess not if you do not buy a drink. Â Here still many poeple - including me - prefer their drinks chilled but without ice cubes. I for one do not like it if my Coke or other drink gets watered by them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Groteslurf Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 I guess it's one of the cultural differences between Europe and the US. I personally will always say 'no ice' when I order a softdrink. Most of my friends do the same. And when you would forget to say that, you will get 2 or 3 cubes in your drink, not a glass full of frozen water with a bit of coke to fill it up . I tried it a few times in the US because everybody on the TPR trip did it, but I prefer to have my softdrink with no ice. I can imagine that it must be strange for americans not getting any ice when they order an drink in Europe though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackandylan123 Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 If you buy the wrong fastrack for a ride…DO NOT HOLD UP THE BATCHING WHILE YOU ARGUE THAT YOU HAVE A FASTRACK THAT INCLUDES THE RIDE THAT YOU ARE TRYING TO GET ON GODDAMMIT!!!!

Canobie Coaster Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Don't use the test seat as a park bench. Leave it open for those who need to use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simon8899 Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 ^Honestly I have never seen those test seats being used for its intended purpose here in Europe. On the other hand I would guess that 99,9+% of poeple who choose to ride here fit into the seats without problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canobie Coaster Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 I've seen people at the Six Flags parks just chilling in the test seats like it is any other park bench. I would have to imagine it being especially awkward for people who need to use the test seat to tell someone to get up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon Sabo Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Some I have seen: Guests 'name dropping' someone they know at the park in order to get a special access. Not following safety rules by ride attendant or safety spiel. Guest think they are owed the world or something when they were slightly inconvieneinced by a ride shutdown or delay (some parks provide some sort of pass). 1 guest holding a spot in line while the rest of the group "went to bathroom" or got something to eat and the group tries to intimidate others in line for speaking out about the line cutting.

VF15 Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 -Don't try to sneak small children who are too short onto the rides. It doesn't work, and it slows down the lines for everyone. -Don't force young children on bigger rides if they don't want to ride. No one wants to hear a young child screaming "I DON'T WANNA RIDE!" at the top of their lungs. -Cutting in front of others in line to rejoin your party is considered line jumping. Don't do it. -Try not to be a jerk to other people. You're there to have fun, so the less negativity between people, the better. -If you're truly annoyed with someone or something, handle the situation maturely and don't throw a fit in front of everyone.

fraroc Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 I have one.  The last two rides of the day should be the biggest water ride the park has followed up by a spinning ride to spin-dry you  This unwritten rule is the BEST on hot days! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yankeeman311 Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 I call this the Majority Rule. Â If you're in a big group that's split up in line, go where the majority is. If 2 are ahead and 4 are behind, the front 2 people should go back to meet up with the rest. If 4 are in front and 2 are behind, then it's ok for the 2 to try to meet up ahead in the line with the group. Â It gets annoying to have 6 people cut you because 2 of them were ahead. But if only 2 have to go past you to get with their group, it doesn't feel like as big of a deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajfelice Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 ^An even easier rule: Do not cause a scene or get depressed when your group of 8 people doesn't all ride in the same train together. After all, it's not like a ride is significantly different when the people in the rows in front of you or behind you are not people in your group. And the two minutes you wait for the rest of your group at the end of the exit ramp isn't going to cause psychological harm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
