flagrockerthegreat Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 You might be a coaster nerd if... you look at the landscape and think "Yeah I could put a lifthill there, a drop there, a turn there, etc..." until you have a complete layout. I used to do it all the time when I was younger. I do that every time i'm in Indiana just driving by some hilly land, if only there was a theme park there they could use the terrain of the land for awesome roller coasters, enspecially there's 320 acres of land surrounded when it gets passed down to me.

PixelRush Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 You survey your backyard to see what compact models you can fit in the space, or if you see construction somewhere, you imagine what a park would look like if it was in that spot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coaster19 Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 You quiz yourself every time you see a photo of a rollercoaster, by guessing 1) name of rollercoaster 2) name of park 3) name of company that built said rollercoaster Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
storms555 Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 A trip to an amusement park is a much better antidepressant then actual antidepressant medicine! I guess in a way its another take on the "laughter is the best medicine". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaceBoarder Posted November 27, 2016 Share Posted November 27, 2016 You see the Simpson's episode "Itchy & Scratchy Land" in a new light thanks to this hobby... Still not sure if this is a good or bad thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrSum1_55 Posted November 27, 2016 Share Posted November 27, 2016 You root for Ohio State when they play Michigan just because of Cedar Point. You have ever legitimately wondered where sex ranks compared to your top coasters. (Good sex is my #2, behind Skyrush). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VF15 Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 ...when flying on a plane, you always get a window seat so you can try to see amusement parks from the sky. (I'm definitely guilty, I was able to see Valleyfair from my seat while descending into Minneapolis last May.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
