deathbydinn Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Did you get on Snakes on a Train? If so how was it running? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jojo19799 Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 I still feel bad for trying to scare that little girl. I wasn't even being scary. Maybe next time I'll take a picture with a clown. This is what happens when I become possessed by the devil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GriffyTiffy Posted October 19, 2009 Author Share Posted October 19, 2009 ^Yes, you were being scary. Very scary. Did you get on Snakes on a Train? If so how was it running? We skipped Viper because it had about an hour wait. But was running great two weeks ago, so it shouldn't have changed much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jojo19799 Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 HAWT. No....SEXY!!! BTW, my new theme song is Sexy B*tch by David Guetta featuring Akon. It's totally appropriate. We can't forget about the map incident. I should probably post that picture soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Airtime&Gravity Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 ^ Nice trip report. I haven't gotten to Fright Fest yet this year, but how does it compare to previous seasons? I don't think there are any new mazes or areas, but is the overall festival better, worse, or about the same? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jojo19799 Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 ^I loved that video. I couldn't find Matt, but I'll have to watch it again. Did someone slip and fall when they first showed Chicago? Anyway, I've been going to FF since it started. Personally I think this year is about the same as last year. The mazes and areas are the same, just maybe a different location. I know it past years they had Area 51 in Hometown Square or where Shuttle is. When FF first started, every area was themed, and had some characters walking around. I remember the train always had something going on too. At least they kept Love at First Fright. It really is a fun show to watch, and if you haven't seen it, go see it!

Jerrykoala2112 Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Did they have the Character Candy Trail of magical wonders last year?! Love at First Fright is amazing!! You got to see it everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GriffyTiffy Posted October 19, 2009 Author Share Posted October 19, 2009 The Map Incident While we were wandering the park, I just so happened to have an SFSTL map. I began to stare at it, confused. A park employee approached the group and asked if I needed any help finding anything, to which I replied to her asking were "The Boss" was. She then looked at the map and found it, and explained that it was in the south end of the park. Then she got a little confused and asked if I had an old map. She had to take out a SFGAM map to compare the too! I had to explain that it was from another park and I didn't know that it wasn't from here. Next time I'll say, "Wait, we aren't' in St. Louis? How could I have messed that up? Well, I have about five hours of driving ahead of me..." A quick video that Jeremie took of the ordeal: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Starr Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 I remember the train always had something going on too. If they ever brought the themed train back, I would go to FF every weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcjaco Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 I couldn't find Matt, but I'll have to watch it again. I have much better moves than that Matt. I'll show everyone on the 1st. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jojo19799 Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 I have much better moves than that Matt. I'll show everyone on the 1st. Someone remind me to record this. Something tells me it's going to be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
traincrossin Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 ^^^^Now that is just hilarious!!! There is so much at Fright Fest that i've never done. I havn't gone to any of the haunted houses, havn't seen Love at First Fright, and havn't been on Terror Twister. What is wrong with me? Now I really can't wait to see you guys again!

Jojo19799 Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 Did they have the Character Candy Trail of magical wonders last year?! I remember they did it in past years, but they didn't give out PB Twix!!! I could have asked for a Twix, but the guy giving it out gave one to a little girl in a stroller. I couldn't take candy from her. Yet, I could try to scare a little girl walking around. I havn't gone to any of the haunted houses, havn't seen Love at First Fright, and havn't been on Terror Twister. What is wrong with me? Were you living under a rock? Don't worry, I lived under one myself. I'm not a fan of haunted houses, but I did enjoy TT2 and LAFF. If they ever brought the themed train back, I would go to FF every weekend. The train was the highlight of the trip. It would always have a bit of a wait to it due to only having one train running and one station closed down. I lost interest in it when they decided to go with the Pigman story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
