Team Thriller Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 ^ Haha. That made me laugh so hard I nearly went pee pee My experience isn't so weird. But it made me laugh. I was on the subway in Brussels when these little kids (maybe 4 years in age) where crying because they where scared. The parents said that the 'train' wasn't really moving. So when we got to the station, the kids where amazed and thought it was magic. I wish I was like that when I was 4. --James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Benvenuto Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 So this girl replies with this direct quote "I have no clue what Cedar Point is..." Sometimes I wonder how it's possible the GP can be so ignorant. Yeah how dare some stupid person not know a regional amusement park in Ohio, god what a dumb bitch. Nice. I've also gotten, "how the hell am going to get in this seat?" on TTD, I open the t-bar for them, and I think "That's how! Idiot" I've gotten that same question on MF, Raptor and Magnum and I just pull up the restraint for them. The GP can be idiots sometimes, and at the worst times too.

Behemoth230 Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 I showed this girl a picture of Behemoth's first drop, and she reacted by saying "That's a scary *** drop! Is that legal?" Well if it's illegal then it wouldn't be built in the first place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the sound Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 ^^ I would presume she would be joking, many people say "Is that legal" when they see or do something really good. ^ Yes, i agree! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HEADCHEEZ Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 Once, A person at my school was talking about Goliath at Magic Mountain, he said the train has gasoline and the train runs down the track like a car. So I told him that it was gravity powered and that kind of stuff... He told my I was gay and walked off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SFjunkie2010 Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 It would seem to me that the GP does not like to be proven wrong. My friends nonetheless are some of my worst enemies when it comes to waiting in line. It seems they like to think that Superman Ride of Steel is 400 feet tall and that 8 people have died on it and all other sorts of outlandish claims. I told my friend that in fact it was not 4oo feet tall and any of the other ridiculous claims he had made were false and he told me I was wrong. Once in the station i showed him the sign with the specifics on it and he just frowned still not admitting that he was wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

exit english Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 If you're turning friends into enemies based on the fact that they don't know roller coaster stats, one might be taking his hobby a little too seriously, methinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redhead Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 Haha, all these stories are making me laugh. When I went to Knott's a few weeks ago my friend and I went on the log ride and sat in the front of the log. Two teenage boys sat behind us. While we were riding one of them suddenly yelled out "Crap! I didn't know we were going to get wet on this!". Then he asked my friend if she could move slightly to the left so his "Homemade Cigarettes" wouldn't get wet. We couldn't stop laughing about it the whole ride.

thunder001 Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 That the Cyclone Roller Coaster at Dreamworld was "The best in Australia and one of the top 5 in the world". Sad thing is that this was from a park staff member, and more than a year after Superman Escape had opened no more than 5km down the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voyage_luvr Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 When I was at Belmont Park, This woman asked the ride operator, "Can you stop the ride halfway through the drop so I can take a picture? hahaha WOW! I think that has made my day so far. This isn't really something the GP have said, but what I have seen. A couple years ago while I was at Holiday World there were some Amish people there. And they went on the log ride with the women in the dresses or whatever it is called that they wear. It was pretty funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
christianscoasters Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 Yesterday in my drama class. It was our first day in that class, so we were doing this "get-to-know-everyone" thing. One of the questions on the questionnaire was, "Who has been to an amusement park more than five times?" And some girl was like, "Oh my God! The roller coaster at Joyland! That was the first roller coaster ever built!" Even though it was built in 1949 This is a little off subject, but today in drama, we were discussing those questionnaire's, and we started talking about roller coasters for like 15 minutes! It was so cool! And what surprises me, is that what people said was actually true Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayjay719 Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 We were at Six Flags New England and Superman was stuck on the lift and my friend said "can't you just make the train go backwards?" LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry Exit English maybe I should have worded that post better. I don't actually become enemies with them but it generates much arguments which actually makes the line go by faster.

zeke11793 Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 I was at BGT last weekend and I was walking to the back of the park to ride Kumba. On the way there I heard this random chick say "Hey let's go ride Shakira!" I wanted to just bust out laughing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunfire Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 ^That sounds so dirty. Sheikra has to be horrible to say for dyslexic people (like me). When I first saw the name, I thought it was Shakira too! One time in Biology class, there was a girl talking about DCA. She said, "OMG, have you been on the Maliboomer? That shoots you up 10000 feet in the air!" Uh, yeah. The highest thrill ride in the world is Big Shot on the thousand foot tall Stratosphere tower. The ride itself is 160 feet tall. Another time, a friend asked me, "Have you been on California Screamin? You know, the one that launches you to 200 miles per hour?" I wanted to laugh so bad, but I controlled myself. I'm really annoyed by people claiming that, "Top Gun at Great America is going to be torn down because it's sinking in the lake." Someone said that on Youtube. Then another GP replied with, "They're taking it down? Aww, I loved that ride." I wanted to reply with, "IDIOTS!" I don't know why the general public seem to believe such bullcrap claims.

Airtime&Gravity Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 ^Someone on Youtube claimed Clementon was bought by Six Flags. Surpassingly he didn't get made fun of... I have nothing wrong with people making honest mistakes, but there is a difference between an honest mistake and stupidity. "Viper is like 100 years old"-I'm thinking "Really?(said sarcastically) Viper has been here since 1907...69 years before SFGAM opened?" Sure Viper looks really old, but amusement rides have not been in Gurnee since 1907. Girl in line for Raging Bull-"B:TR is the world's tallest coaster."

xascher Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 Ok, this happened in Choir yesterday, and I just about crapped myself with laughter, Student 1: I hate Wicked (Lagoon), It sucked so bad that their gonna take it down. Student 2: When? Me: Yeah, Lagoon is going to listen to the complaints of a hormonal, jail bait teenager, and pay money, to tear down something, that they payed money for, and is making money for them... Student 2: So when are they going to take it down? Student 1: You're gay, Me: Yeah... what of it? They both walked away, but anyway student #1 and I have a very close relationship of him acting like an idiot, me proving him wrong, and him calling me gay... it's rather hilarious .

TheRapidsNerd Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 I was in line for Roman Rapids at BGE in May of last year and there were two very drunk girls carrying beer bottles behind me. One asked the other "Do you think I need to put down my beer somewhere?" Can't be sure, but I think the CMs made them toss the bottles, and let them on the ride anyway. I couldn't help but laugh.

FitchCoaster Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 My friend is totally convinced that Six Flags once got sued because one of the cars on Superman at SFMM overshot and flew off the tracks. I told her that has never happened, and probably won't ever happen. She was still trying to convince me that it happened, trying to tell me that it's the reason why cars now never reach the top of the tower. I was getting pretty frustrated, and she was still really convinced that she was right, so I just agreed with her and old her I was probably wrong. Sometimes I just play dumb just to satisfy people in situations like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kraken613 Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 I heared a person at Dollywood say that Mystery Mine cant have a verticle drop because it would then come off the tracks.

Blink Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 My friend and I were standing in line for Deja Vu and we overheard these to girls infront of us saying that the reason Deja Vu at SFMM isn't open a lot is because on the lift backwards, the train kept going up and the back car fall off of the track. Me and my friend were just cracking up so hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
