amyzoo Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 What happened on the S&S tower in Alambama? Â I think it was one of the guide wheels that broke and flew off while we were on it. It shook just a little when we were coming back down, and I heard a kid say "it broke!" and he ran and picked up the broken wheel. Then the ride operator took the wheel from the kid and went into the office. About an hour later we saw it running again. I didn't go back to ride it again...

SharkTums Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 BTW, your TR made KT CRY!!!! Â She came over when she caught a glimpse of herself and saw that fish game and cat she won...then started crying when she realized she doesn't have it anymore.

rollin_n_coastin Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 Joey, great stuff! Wow, that Waffle House was something fantastic, maybe not more than Prowler but close. I think we displaced all the regulars that night.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BkkMan13 Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 I remember my first ride on Prowler, in the front seat ! The first drop suprised the crap outta me, since it looked a LOT less steep from the ground. It was one of the greatest moments of my life... The greatest moment actually...

coastercrzyjames Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 Joey, thanks for the amazing Photo TR! I love looking back at these and reminiscing about all the fun times we had on the trip. That day was an absolute blast, and Prowler ERT was incredible that night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

printersdevil78 Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 Glad you got to sample a PBT (breaded pork tenderloin) sandwich. They're a staple in the Midwest, from what I'm told. Â That Waffle House takeover looks amazing! I'm a covered-and-chunked kinda guy myself. Add a side of bacon and a pecan waffle, and that right there is my standard order.

jray21 Posted April 28, 2011 Author Share Posted April 28, 2011 After an interesting past few weeks, it's time for another update! Today was a full day at Worlds of Fun, and then Lambert's!! We had some awesome ERT, and were found worthy enough to walk in the presence of Prowler! After another awesome day we headed out to the world famous Lambert's, home of the throwed rolls!!! It was so amazing, and the servings were enormous! Bryan, being a vegetarian, thought he'd be safe by getting a salad, but after he saw how many vegetables were killed to make his salad I wouldn't be surprised if he goes normal! Seriously though, that salad was the largest single serving of food stuffs I have ever seen. Anyway, on to the pictures! After an incredibly late night, and a Wafflehouse hangover, I was absolutely ehausted. Nothing that a Rooster Booster and a Donkey Kick can't fix! Now I'm wired for another long day of gaining another two pounds! These nasty creatures were out in full force. They were a lot louder then I've ever heard them before. I think I'll pass on trying that seat out. Ice Bat and Robb have some intimate time. We had ERT on Patriot! They heard TPR was there, so they put on a show! Cloudpoofing sounds like what Dan did the entire trip! Hello, may name is Joey and I'm a credit whore. I am so ashamed. TPDave is proud of his world famous credit whoring. KidTums really is the cutest kid! We all hang our heads in shame because of what we just did. Martin does his best Wacky Worm impression Crap, how did we miss this show!? "A Rosary a day keeps the demons away." Obviously not, since Dan and Dave are sitting right behind her Hey, lets try the sit in a naked kangaroos crotch ride! Train rides are the best things to do in the middle of the day when all the ride lines are long. What a terrible ride. Wow, just like the real one! I don't know why these shirts aren't selling I was so tempted to kick one of the piles. The best picture of the trip! They will throw eggs at you and laugh if you use the chicken exit. Robb is trying to catch one of those delicious cicada bugs! They definitely are related! Michael and Katherine are not having nearly as much fun as Robb and KidTums Take another picture and I'll show you how far up your A$$ that camera will fit. Lunch was all you could eat hot dogs and brisket! It was pretty good! And then I saw this shirt Through these pearly gates we get to meet Prowler! Divv was doing his GQ pose for all the ladys.......and gays. Run Divv Run! I wonder why this sign is here. This has got to be the stupidest thing I've ever seen. Miles has to check and make sure his heart is still beating because Prowler is that amazing. Amy touches the almighty Prowler. Nick gets to 'know' Prowler...in Bible terms. Having just experienced electricity for the first time last week, maybe Prowler was a little too much for him. It can even make you do the O face. Dan is thinking naughty thoughts No teeth, a Fatty, and a 'what the hell kind of shirt is that' all on one train! I think that little boy/girl (?) just had a stroke. Please don't crap my pants. Please don't crap my pants. Please don't crap my pants. Don't you wish everyone used Dial? After visiting and being one with Prowler, our lives are now complete. Dan and Bryan have an intense staring contest while Elissa thinks, how old are you two? I peed my pants and when into convulsions after taking this picture. Bryan is that good. Amy decided to use the meth addict strategy. Who needs seat belts when wedged blubber can hold you in even better! Artsy shot of the fat man and his camera For Girls......or John. C'mon Oliver, that's not the proper way to take a TPR picture. That's more like it! Gears and Grease for you real coaster nerds. Hello Travis and Jenn! I see TPR'ers! Even with a big guy in the front seat, the two people in the back were so huge that the boat stayed leaning way back the entire ride! My pilgrimage is now complete! Camera nerds! I wonder how many people have been murdered at this nice little rest stop? For all you ravers, they have E at this exit. Even better, they have Lambert's! Two thumbs up means don't use the bathroom for at least 30 minutes. But before dinner, we visit the cheese store! I hope these were made in China with real cats! Well Kristen, you said you wanted a Kitty, and this is a real kitty. Kill the cats! Yep, this definitely is the mid-west! This random mannequin head scared the crap out of me as I walked by the car. Bryan and Texas made the best purchase of the trip Tons of throwed rolls, molasses, and huge sodas! More throwed rolls, oh, sorry Dan, molasses, oh, sorry again Dan, and huge sodas! Little fried Okra! I was hoping they would be delicious, but they are still Okra, and still disgusting! This picture does not do the portion sizes justice. This is not a plate, it a frying pan! It was huge, and they would come by every few minutes and dump a ton of sides on your plate as well. Amy got the Chicken and Dumplings, and ate quite a bit of it. We caught Dan sneaking a roll with molasses like a meth addict. Even the chocolate pudding was amazing. Bill Cosby would have been proud. Phase One: The food is amazing and there is so much to eat! Phase Two: I can't stop eating these awesome potatoes, but I am pretty full. Phase Three: I am so full I am going to throw up, but I'm so close to finishing that I have to keep going. Thank you Lambert's for an incredible dinner. We arrive in very odd Branson for the night. No 'W'acancy due to the Roller Coaster Tour Company People Group Gathering Convention Meeting They had a bunch of tourist traps that I bet they spent a ton more money on decorating the outside than they did on the actual attraction. John Wayne, Elvis, a Tranny Marilyn Monroe, and a clown thats been punched in the face? Unfortunately for many TPR members, this was NOT a gay bar/show Nothing says Missouri like the Titanic! And nothing says the Titanic like wooden creepy ghost horses! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
