imagenius128 Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 Yeah! Amazing idea. Won't always be able to come to stuff cause of school, but i can try! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted November 22, 2011 Author Share Posted November 22, 2011 Ill be moving back there in January, So should I join now, or later? Great Idea! Especially since ill be all by myself in Orlando... You can add your name now, that's fine.  Really, it's just going to be an easy way for me to reach out to some of our Florida locals and get an idea of how many people we have within a few hours drive.

televisedconfession Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 Is there going to be a forum with this group, or are you just using it as ways to send out invitations via mail? Just curious so I know where to watch out for this awesome info! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted November 22, 2011 Author Share Posted November 22, 2011 ^ For right now, just emails and perhaps updating this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anonymouscactus Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 Long-time lurker as well. This is awesome, I am looking forward to meeting you folks. I am new to the area, so it would be great to meet some fellow enthusiasts whether it be in or out of the parks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larrygator Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 ^^ I figured this is something new we'll try...I'm always up for trying new things! We never really had something like this for when we lived in So Cal, although West Coast Bash sort of became the annual event for that area. I think it would be really fun to just tell everyone "Hey, tomorrow night we'll be at Dave & Busters....anyone want to meet up?", etc, etc....  Knowing your love of NASCAR, when can we expect a pilgramage to Daytona Beach Speedway?

Hilltopper39 Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 Knowing your love of NASCAR, when can we expect a pilgramage to Daytona Beach Speedway? Â February is right around the corner.... Even if your not a fan of Nascar it's worth it to attend a live race once just to see it, especially at Daytona. I went to the Nationwide race on Saturday last year for the first time and had blast!

NickC Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 Yet another long time lurker here as well... I made that stupid "Coaster Safety" animation that was on the site several years ago, if anyone even remembers that, haha. But yeah, I think this is a great idea too. I would totally be down for spontaneous meet ups and stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coasterkid21 Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 Man, now I wish I live at my grandma's house! Can we participate if we are in the area for a short time every year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrakenKing Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 I live ten minutes outside of Orlando city limits, in Winter Park... hence "Snootyville". I applied, now I wait. Â I was wondering what other members lived in the area, also, I had no idea until recently that you all moved to Orlando, Jay (ElToroExtreme) told me, ha! Welcome!

Inukaza Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 Land O Lakes teen here., (one of the many areas that gets confused with tampa) Â Will be totally keeping updated on this. I would love to use this as a opportunity to expand from lurker status. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBparks57 Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 Man, missed it by that much! I currently live in Orlando, but I shall be moving in March. Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doublestufforeo Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 I live in Clermont which is 30 minutes away from Orlando, and I work at IoA so I'm pretty sure I can make it, I get into the SeaWorld and Gardens for free as well as Universal. Â If you ever want discounts on anything in the parks, (i.e. tickets, passes, etc. let me know) Â I get 50% off Universal merch right now until Jan 2nd. as long as its not Harry Potter stuff. Yay!

BelizeIt Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 Way to go Robb & Elissa! Â I have been part of the forums since they started, and I know that you were eager to leave CA (where I live) for some time, for the great state of Florida. Â I'm glad that you were able do this. Â Since I won't have to option to leave CA anytime soon, I want to wish you both the best in your new local. Â Theme Park Review will prosper wherever its located. The future looks bright!

PeterIt Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 I am so excited about this group, I have never been able to go to a meet up but now I can because you are all in FL! Can anybody say Lion Country Safari? It is basically the equivalent of ghetto Animal Kingdom. I am looking forward to some awesome TPR Bashes! Hopefully you will have meet ups in the Palm Beach area we are a "tourist destination", which basically means no one wants to come down here unless they have to.

pianojohn Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 Yay! I'm in! And now hopefully I can meet more TPR folks when they are out and about the parks. (And if you're lucky, you may catch me playing piano at Disney! I think a Hoop Dee Doo meet up would be awesome!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully you will have meet ups in the Palm Beach area we are a "tourist destination", which basically means no one wants to come down here unless they have to. Â Your right about Lion Country Safari lol, its fun but only about once every 5 years or so. Would be great if they added some bigger rides/coasters. Having lived in the Palm Beach area for just about 20 years (still work in PBC but moved to FT Lauderdale 2 years ago) its a great place to live but wouldn't really go out of my way to vacation or make it a destination in itself IMO.
