Though, some teenagers purposely drop their food items and what shocks me is that they drop it just a few feet away from the trash can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They must do it on purpose, I saw someone at my local theme park drop a half eaten hotdog and can of coke into a flowerbed right next to a trashcan.

larrygator Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 I recently found out that one of my friends has to write a paper about how kids ages 8 to 16 should not be allowed to ride coasters. I'm kinda worried for the department of education now... They should have made him write a paper about how kids 8-16 should not be allowed to write about coasters.

E1ticket5 Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Heard on some random site... SIX FLAGS Six Flags Great America Complaint by Kevin Richards Your prices are so high, infact I can get the same items at Wal-mart and Kmart for one third the price. Your prices are so high that you are pratically inviting people to steal things. Today I was caught stealing personalized keychains from one of the stores inside your themepark, and I got into trouble when I got home and both my dad and I were kicked out of the park without a refund. Lower your prices. Drinks cost like five times as much as they do at Kmart and Wal-mart and so does your food and it is not exactely good quality food. Seriusly lower your prices. We already have to pay to get in the *** park. With your prices you are encouraging people to steal. 2ae8f4b Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
galindoverhere Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 ^^ Wow... shame on that person, doesn't he/she know how high theme park prices are these days?!?! And furthermore that it was a Six Flags park?! Sheesh our generation these days! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RAWKIN_coaster38 Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Conversation yesterday: Friend: Goliath at Magic Mountain is the tallest coaster in the world! I just saw this documentary about it. Me: Uhh... the tallest coaster in the world is in New Jersey. Friend: Really? Well this documentary was a few years old so maybe Goliath was the tallest back then. Me: The Superman coaster at Magic Mountain is a lot taller than Goliath, and older. Friend: Oh...well Goliath is so much fun and it goes completely vertical! Me: Are you sure you're not talking about Superman? Friend: No, Goliath! The one that goes in the tunnel! Other Friend: Space Mountain at Disneyland was closed for 3 years because a really tall guy got decapitated by a support on the ride. Me:?? Friend: Well... I'm not sure if it actually decapitated him, but it hit him in the head and it broke off part of his head and he died. (I looked this up on the off chance that it could be true, turns out it's an urban legend: http://orlandoworld.wordpress.com/2008/03/07/top-10-disney-world-urban-legends/ However, my friend said this was recent and the ride was closed for 3 years, not sure where she got that or the thing that it was a tall guy who got brained.)

To be fair, it may have been a documentary on the tallest complete-curcuit coaster in the world, but it would have had to been made sometime within the three months it actually held that record.

RAWKIN_coaster38 Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 The Goliath conversation has got me lost... It lost me too when I was having it. I've never heard that story before for some reason, but if it's on the internet it must be true. If someone said it, it must be true! A guy totally got brained on the ride!! OMG!!!!!! To be fair, it may have been a documentary on the tallest complete-curcuit coaster in the world, but it would have had to been made sometime within the three months it actually held that record. Probably, I was confused about when she saw this thing and how old it was when she saw it. I was just glad that she wasn't one of those people that insisted she was correct. I guess she can stay my friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grinch1313 Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Today, a fellow co-worker at Publix told me that he can't wait to go out to Las Vegas in 10 days to ride his favorite coaster which is at New York, New York. He then asked me what I thought of the ride. How do you tell someone their favorite ride is complete trash? I really need to stop talking about coasters with people at work.

Angry_Gumball Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 I just recalled this as I posted earlier in the SFDK thread, discussing Zonga and roughness/problems. Back when Zonga opened, my neighbors got to the park before we got a chance to check out the ride. When they came back, I was excited to ask them how the new Zonga coaster was. Well, the father immediately stepped in and said "That ride banged your head around! If I wanted to get my head banged around and beat up, I'd get in a fight with someone!" Well, that says a whole lot of how he'd handle the fight, lol. Others also complained of roughness and 'not worth it.' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
