Angry_Gumball Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 A couple times on the CGA's flyers as I'm getting an insane snap-heavy ride...riders in the tube behind me during the first ride, a little girl says to her dad: "Wow, that guy in front of us was going weird! What was happening?" The dad responds via telling me that I had my tub going really good. That evening on the same ride, this one random dude was in line and after a crazy and very noisy ride, the guy tells me that I should ride it again and show him how to do it Other moments, as much as this has been stated numerous times but I've seen a sudden increase over the past couple visits: Large groups of people standing right at the ride entrance all to measure their kid as our fairly large group is wanting to get in line. They can very well see that we are heading to that line but decide to block the path anyway...even worse when strollers are in the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angry_Gumball Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 A nice little misconception happened yesterday...waiting to get into the park yesterday, I was rocking my TPR shirt. The kid looks at me, then looks at his dad and tells him: "Theme Park Review....You know he's got one heck of a job, ride coasters and get paid for doing it!" In the mean time, I'm trying my hardest not to laugh, and turn away and try to talk to my cousin and fellow TPR member to keep my mind distracted. I was then asked which rides were the good ones and I pointed out some of the hot stuff there, and then told him what TPR was...by then the gates opened and we go off our own ways.

Pinfari13 Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 Too many times I hear about how Six Flags "ripped off" Cedar Point by "copying" Top Thrill Dragster (or Top Fuel Dragster). I tried to explain to someone once about how both rides are made by Intamin, and all they said was that "Intamin isn't very creative." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fraroc Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 Some kid in my class who goes to SFGADV almost all the time during the summer, for fright fest and anything inbetween told me the reason why Kingda Ka breaks down all the time is because it's cursed. And he proceeds to tell me that in 2002, the coaster that El Toro replaced that's not there anymore (Viper in case you didn't guess) flew off the tracks, crashed and killed everybody on board so the ghosts of the riders cursed Kingda Ka so that it breaks down all the time XD Someone's been watching too much Poltergeist and Final Destination 3.

XYZ Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 This isn't a weird thing a GP said, but a stupid thing that a brainless theme park employee said, but it will work in this thread. So, I went to Legoland yesterday as usual when this one games employee asked this person, "Did you ride the X-Factor ride yet?" and the women said, you mean "Project X". Brainless employee outsmarted by a typical GP... (For those who don't know, Project X is one of Technic Coaster's many names) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ytterbiumanalyst Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Regarding Silver Dollar City's A Christmas Carol show: "Compared to the Dickerson show, which it was based on, I don't think it was very good. This one added musical stuff." Yeah. And a surprising lack of Scrooge McDuck, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cfc Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 (edited) ^Perhaps they were performing "An Xmas Chorale by Carl Dickerson," rather than Charles Dickens's "A Christmas Carol." Edited December 3, 2012 by cfc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know, I think you're right. That would explain the photo in the show schedule of the Ghost of Christmas The Years It Falls On A Tuesday.

disney4me2001 Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 These are a couple of gems I captured from the USO Transformers announcement, but I forgot to post them until now: Um...what? I can't recall a single time when Universal "moved" an attraction to Disney, or vice-versa. I facepalmed at this one, although to be fair USO does still maintain the rights to the current Marvel attractions, not to mention that a DC Island/Gotham City was proposed when IOA was in development. But still... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thrillseeker4552 Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 This isn't something the GP have said, but it is something an employee has said. I was at KBF in line for Ghost Rider and this employee tried to convince me and my mom that Ghost Rider was the first wood coaster ever built and it was relocated to KBF in 2000. You had no idea how badly I wanted to correct this guy (I didn't say anything of course). 1. It is no where near the first wood coaster. 2. 1998, not 2000. I do give props to a Top Thrill Dragster employee who said it was the second tallest and third fastest coaster though! Good job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Double0Kevin Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 While waiting to board Manta at SWO, This group in front of me pointed to the other station and said it was for a different track. Later when we got off one of the girls says "Yeah, the other track dunks you underwater and gets you wet." Her friend responds "Oh, lets not do that one." I just shook my head.

alilstronger Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 I was in line for The Claw at Hersheypark this past Sunday and two grown men behind me were saying how its neat that it goes upside down.
