Coasterfanatic245 Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Now I've noticed a lot of parks seem to get these disgusting things. I know Cedar Point will get one once in a while in the Raptor line but they are pretty good at cleaning it off. SF over Georgia has one in line for the log flume. SF GADV has a whole wall of one in one of their ques. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lissa1986 Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 They have one at Six Flags St Louis on the Boss line. Its more like a roof than a wall. There is also one by The screaming eagle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Across_the_Universe Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 There's a gum tree (A live, breathing tree!) in the line for the Wild Mouse at Idlewild. Anybody see it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hikaru-chan Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Who knows what's going through peoples minds these days. Lets put our gum on a tree or on the ground instead of the trash can that's been provided. Though it doesn't look like the gum harms the trees, it does harm our shoes when we step in it though. At SFoG we also have the gum sign in batman, I think, and a couple of gum trees in Mindbender and Thunder river( last time I rode). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ms13 Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 There was a gum tree in line for the powered coaster an Canada's wonderland. It was right below the loading platform, and right under/around the tree, was a walkway! I was surprised people were still using it, considering everybody was spitting onto it!

gk Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Monstre at La Ronde has gum all over the place going most of the way up the lift hill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPmaverick Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Millennium Force used to have one but they closed that part of the queue line off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sam06pr Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 well this is not necessarily a gum wall but when I got on SheiKra last time I noticed there was a lot of gum on the track right where the holding break is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hansrubens Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Pegasus at De Efeteling has a gumtree. EWW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thrillgeek Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Millennium Force used to have one but they closed that part of the queue line off. Why would they close part of the queue line? Couldn't they just scrape the gum off and re-open the line? I'm so glad the Medusa gum wall at SFDK is gone from a few years ago. Ever since the name change the park has been 95% spotless! Well.....at least for gum walls that is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildcatroc Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Cyclone's entrance ramp was one giant gum wall many years back at Riverside! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KGA29 Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Great America used to have a bunch of gum on Grizzly's brake run, but they have cleaned it off a little. Same with the gum tree in line for Rip Roarin Rapids. There's still some pieces, but not nearly as many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't close an entire queue section. It doesn't affect anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kraken613 Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 On the mine train's holding brake at Carowinds is full of gum on the wall right next to it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyTrane Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Renegade has had a large gum wall/vandalism wall within a month of the ride opening. Since then VF has painted all the wood a dark color so the writing would not be able to be read. Go figure it was from all the school field trips during that time. Dumb kids, why do they have to be so disrespectful? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scooterdoug Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 I remember the infamous gum wall at Magic Mountain. It was on Gold Rusher, on a support post about half way up the first lift hill, just to the left. People would reach out and stick their gum on it as their train slowly went by the post. Not sure if it's still there though, as I haven't ridden that ride in many years. -Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rct3man777 Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Last I saw, spider at lagoon had a wall that was completley COVERED in gum!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hemmy Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Knotts has a small one in the log flume queue But things like this just piss me off, along with the idiots who just throw their trash on the ground instead of in the trashcan next to them. Why people are so retarded is beyond me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bspellx5 Posted August 9, 2008 Share Posted August 9, 2008 The tunnel that leads into Ghost Town at Great Escape has like 3 windows in the ceiling, and they are all about a foot about the ceiling itself. There is gum all along the insides of that, like to the point where you couldn't fit any more on and it's been that way for like ever..I think part of the experience of that cave is seeing the gum on those windows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragonskeep Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 There was one on the Carolina Cyclone about 20 years ago. Even when I was a kid, I thought it was the stupidest thing ever. I was raised by human beings though. The fact that parks encourage it by leaving them there is pretty mind numbing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy_e219 Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 The Devil's Den at Conneaut Lake Park, gum is on the wall all up the lift hill and at the top of the hill before the drop. Also at Kennywood in the que for the Log Jammer, there is gum not on a wall but in an evergreen tree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airtime&Gravity Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 The supports on Superman: Ultimate Flight at Great America are covered in gum, although nowhere near other "gum walls". The queue of either Screamin Eagle or Boss at Six Flags St. Louis was also pretty bad if I remember correctly. I think American Eagle's queue used to be really bad, but it is clean now.
