kcsteve Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 I'll start: Back in October at Worlds of Fun I was getting off Boomerang and a guy behind me said, "That is the BEST ride ever!" I looked at him like he was retarded and he gave me a real funny look. Heh. Sounds like something I would do, but it wasn't me. Though, I will definitely have to do it this year.

carolinacaniac Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 ^Makes you wonder what they're teaching kids in school these days... Half the time it doesn't matter what we teach them, as it goes in one ear and out the other. But that is another story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samisthabomb Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 People always ask me if I win prizes once I get a certain number of coaster credits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angry_Gumball Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 I'm not sure if I posted this before or not. If I did, please forgive me! When we were at Haunt I think it was last year, we were heading in line for the haunted log flume "Camp GonnaGetcha." The guy behind us was asking/wondering "Hey, I wonder if they will lower the water level as it's a bit colder out here." Our response: "Uh....*puzzled* I wouldn't think so." I didn't want to make the person feel like a total idiot, I figured I would be nice and kindly tell him. He later got to talking about how the ride's looping music and slow-moving logs on the turntable are like an evil version of It's a Small World.

MayTheGForceBeWithYou Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 ^Last year's Timber Mountain overlay was Sleepy Hollow Mountain. Camp GonnaGetcha was late 80s/early 90s, I think (maybe earlier). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angry_Gumball Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 ^Should have specified CGA's Haunt. We had Camp GonnaGetcha last year, which was replaced with Black Widow's Cavern this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boywholaughed Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 July 3rd, 2010. SFMM. Revolution. Me and my friend were up to ride soon as the next train came back. While the people in front of us were loading, there was this kid who was WAAAAAAYYYY under the height limit! The employee measured him and said "Whatever let him ride " everyone cheered and I was laughing. Then I heard this guy next to me say "Watch that train come back and noone in the seat". Apparently a lot of people heard him say that cuz when the OTHER train came back, that specific seat was empty! Everyone was like "Wait...wasn't that where the kid was sitting?" I quickly told the employee "Hey wheres that kid? " she then laughed quietly and SCREAMED when she saw the empty seat! Everyone was so scared it was awesome!

1pizza14 Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 In line for Behemoth at CW. "See the stunt park track coaster over there? It goes upside down 3 times in the tunnel and has a 100 mph launch!" and she wasn't saying that sarcastically. Another time I was at DHS and someone on the studio tram tour behind us said "It must be really dangerous for the guy that lights the fire each time" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MayTheGForceBeWithYou Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 ^Whatever you do, don't let your friend ride in the front car of Lakeside's Cyclone. The belt restraint will go completely taut...which means there's about 6 inches between your butt and the seat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gmaster562 Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 I while ago, at disneyland, I was walking through the exit when I heard teenagers discussing the ride... "That was insane! I got air at some parts!" "My favorite part was the loop! When we were upside down it was insane!" "How do they fit that long big roller coaster in such a small building? It must be huge underground!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angry_Gumball Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Taken from CGA's Facebook: Please make Vortex's (B&M Standup) seatbelts bigger! Not sure if they're referring to the redundancy seatbelt thing, or the shoulder restraints...I doubt the GP notices the difference between the two so who knows. I can be real mean and say this: Loose a bit of weight, will be easier than the park spending money on having restraints redesigned for larger guests.

SoCalCoasters Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Heard a gem when I went to Legoland the other day: Kid: Mommy what's that thing over there! -Points Towards Technic Coaster- (aka Mack Wild Mouse) Mother: There is no way we are going on that, how do they steer the cars around those turns without falling? We could get hurt. Me: This is a roller coaster, they have wheels attatched to the track (note that you can clearly see the ride's true wheels) so you don't fall out. Kid: Mommy let's go on it! Mother: Do you think I'm an idiot? I can see those giant wheels, they are not under the track! http://www.rcdb.com/1144.htm?p=7525 Really? I don't think those are real wheels, but that's just a hunch... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gmaster562 Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 ^Didn't you hear the news? They altered them so there aren't wheels on the track, so you can drive it! DUH! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gdoggy1678 Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Haha i operate the Technic coaster ( Picture above) and people all the time ask me how does it stay on the track with those wheels, I just reply back saying "Each car has 24 wheels, it's not going to fall off".

mightbeawannabe Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 ^Don't you mean 28? I can clearly see those four large wheels are vital to keeping the vehicle on the track. Psh. Clearly these educated people they have operating the ride can't even count past 25. /GP-sarcasm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acq10uaz Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 What's wrong with, "lol now its floorless" though? Shortly after ShieKra opened didn't B&M come back in and rework the station so the trains could be floorless? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
