Hi All,

 

Going to IOA in December. I'm a bigger Midwestern boy 5'7 and about 230Lbs. Do you think i'm going to have may problems getting into some of the coasters? DD or Hulk.

 

Thanks in Advance

It really depends on how you 'carry your weight'...both Dragons and Hulk all have the B&M 'Big Boy Seats' so you should be okay.

Cool, A frineld told me if i fit on Batman i should be fine on DD.

 

Thanks

Yeah he's right, Batman does not have the larger seats so if you can fit on that you can most likely fit on any seat on the B&M's.

Dj, don't worry dude. I am a pretty heavy guy and I NEVER had an issue with any of the major rides at IOA. I even got onto Flying Unicorn with no problem. Being that I weigh more than you do, you should be okay. Hope this helped!

Our Batman has big boy seats.

^Doesn't every ride in Texas have (and need!) them!?!?

Im a pretty big guy myself. 6'3" 240lbs and I fit fine on all the rides in the park and at USO. Youll be fine!

In Texas, they have gun racks in the ride stations, too! You have to put your Colt .45s somewhere while you ride!

Thats right Elissa, we're all lardasses here in the Lone Star State In all seriousness, I was at SFoT 2 weekends ago for Fright Fest, never have I seen so many fatasses in those motorized carts. But, the scariest thing I saw that night wasnt in any of the haunted mazes, it was a nearly 300 lbs woman trying to get on Mr. Freeze,rolls and all.

Thanks for all the help everyone.

 

I hope to have a great time my 1st time to IOA.

Ok, I'm pretty good when it comes to identifying sarcasm in text, but... this time... I really can't tell if you're joking or not.

 

Also, I'm relatively small (roughly 5'5, 160), but those "big boy" seats are my friend, too; if anyone here is small, give them a try, you'll get better air.
