Cj1990 Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 Not much of a guilty pleasure I don't think... but I could sit and stay on forbidden journey all day long lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I Like Theme Parks. Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 ^^That's a perfect example since it's mostly little kids so it's kind of awkward, but it's a great ride. The Woodstock Express coasters are also major guilty pleasures for me because the second drop in the back row has hilariously random insane airtime out of nowhere!

gerstlaueringvar Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 S&S towers, no matter how forceless some of those are, I would always ride one when I see one. Â And old school dark rides in general. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simaticable Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 I could ride Mind Bender all day long and be pretty happy. Well, that or Georgia Cyclone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
storms555 Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 There are a number of rides that would probably fit this bill, but the one that immediately comes to mind is Adventure Express at Kings Island. I enjoy that coaster WAY more than I probably should (especially at night!) meh...i never got to appeal of that ride when i went on it,it was so disappointing. Yet it seems a lot of people like that ride. Some enough they got bent out of shape about it. I left a comment on youtube about how that ride is boring and someone was like you arnt a true coaster fan if you say that!!! It was funny honestly. Also im surprised someone with a pic of a giga coaster would like it so much:P lol Just like i dont get the appeal of Wizzer at Great America either....

wmay Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 I don't know if I have a specific guilty pleasure ride but since I often go to parks alone I end up feeling more stupid sitting alone on like Mr. Toad's Wild Ride than I would if I had someone else there with me.

RAWKIN_coaster38 Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 At my old home park, SFDK.... Kong. No one likes it, but I always gave it a courtesy ride as long as the line wasn't too long. Â New home park, KI. The coasters are all so good, I like them all (besides Vortex). I don't know I can say I have a guilty pleasure ride, except maybe the flyers in Planet Snoopy. I love flyers, but I did feel a little guilty riding them as a lone adult with a bunch of kids around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SFOG1991 Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 ^Since you name dropped Vortex, I'll take this chance to say Vortex is my guilty pleasure ride. Â So many people hate Vortex, but I absolutely LOVE it and it may be my favorite coaster in the park. It's certainly in the top tier of KI rides for me.

Jaykethekid Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 For me, it would have to be Silver Bullet at Frontier City. Most of my friends love to just re ride Wildcat, but that ride is not the best for me. I usually just sneak off to Silver Bullet and marathon it. It's just so much fun to ride!

It's certainly in the top tier of KI rides for me. Anaconda at Kings Dominion is hated by tons of people on the internet, but I thought it was great! The drop is really fun, and the inversions are all very impressive. And it's obviously pretty jerky and has some rattling, but there's only one awkward transition where it actually hurts. Arrow coasters in general are incredibly unappreciated, especially by other young enthusiasts. Loch Ness Monster is super underrated and is really great, and Magnum XL 200 is a masterpiece. Carolina Cyclone is also a nice little ride and their mine trains are enjoyable, especially Runaway Mine Train at Great Adventure.  Speaking of Runaway Mine Train, that's also a guilty pleasure that I often ride. There are usually mostly little kids riding it, but I like it for the scenic ride and the ejector hill! SFGAd has an obsession with small family coasters that have one insane airtime moment.

Â So, what is your guilty pleasure ride, so I can say "meh" to it, too? Â I called it a guilty pleasure ride, not a Top 50 coaster! Plus, my positive feelings about it are almost entirely based on night rides. It isn't anywhere near as good in the daytime. Plus, that ending...

Henry M Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Nobody I know seems to love Oblivion quite as much as me. Early ride time was heaven for me, but maybe not for my friend who had had enough after a few rides on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WOFanatic Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Windseekers. As much as they don't really provide much thrill, they are one of my favorite flat rides.

I happen to be a fan of all those coasters you mentioned, although I think Vortex is better than Anaconda. Anaconda is still a great Arrow though.  Magnum is definitely a masterpiece! It was the first hypercoaster ever and is probably my #1 hyper. I wish they had built more. If every Morgan hyper could be an Arrow instead, I would be ecstatic.

ytterbiumanalyst Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 Magnum is definitely a masterpiece! It was the first hypercoaster ever and is probably my #1 hyper. I wish they had built more. If every Morgan hyper could be an Arrow instead, I would be ecstatic. Oh yes. Mamba at Worlds of Fun was the coaster that made me an enthusiast, and it's really great, but once I got to experience Magnum, my opinion of Mamba changed radically. Everything I loved about Mamba was just destroyed by Magnum. It's just the best hypercoaster, and it's my #2 steel coaster behind Millennium Force. I actually like Magnum better than Maverick, and that's not a popular opinion among enthusiasts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VF15 Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 Patriot at Worlds of Fun. It's short and semi-forceless but still a pretty fun ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
