Skramp Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 So, I searched a whole lot (so as not to emulate my hero!! (see title)) and couldn't come up with anything. So here goes: I was thinking it would be cool if we could gauge age by rides we have ridden that others may not have heard of or only seen in pictures. I work in customer service and am always talking to people and it's funny to see the blank stares you get from people when you mention some of this stuff. Does it make anyone else feel old? You could list by park or just rides. Kings Island King Cobra Flight Commander Screamin Demon Dolphin Show The Bat (didn't ride, but watched it) Cedar Point Ferris Wheel in old location Double Log Flume where Raptor is Disaster Transport before it was enclosed Dolphin Show I've also been to Fantast Farm and Boblo Island. What does everyone else have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angry_Gumball Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 SFDK: Star Fish Old V2 Zonga Jambo SFMM: Psyclone Unmodified Thrillshot (with saddle seats and vest restraints) KBF: Windjammer Kingdom of Dinosaurs Spin Out? (was that the name? The indoor scrambler ride themed to under sea) Parachute ride Disney Land: Old Space Mtn with Dick Dale soundtrack, best ever soundtrack IMO... Universal Studios: Back to the Future E.T. (Only rode once, broke down 5 times during our ride, got real annoying...) Great America: Smurf Village (Wasn't really a ride, a themed area hiding the Blue Streak coaster and mushroom houses to run through... where Nick Central sits now) Splat City (Same location, had the huge play structure infront of the Green Slime Mine Car coaster, now Runaway Reptar) Greased Lightning/Tidal Wave Days of Thunder! I miss that ride..lol Triple Play Dolphin & animal show (occupied by the nickelodeon show now) Almost Orlean's Orbit. (Thank You Cedar Fair for saving this ride!) Santa Cruz Boardwalk: Great Auto Race Wipeout (old ride by Giant Dipper) Chaos (took Wipeout's place) Spin Out (Tea Cup ride in pit area) I think that's about all I can think of. Some other random flats that I rode as a kid that I can't even remember Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jumboshrmp Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Python at Busch Gardens Africa. That's it. I actually miss it. I only rode it once, the operations were horrible, but I would have rode it a few more times if it didn't take so long to wait for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Coaster Girl Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 knoebels : Rode the jetstar the year it came to the park. Rode the swinging car ferris wheel (now gone) when it was near the high speed thrill coaster. Rode the small train from kiddieland when it went through the whole park. Rode the real horses when they still had pony rides. Remembers the rollerskating rink. Rode the panther cars when they were in there original spot ( now in there 3rd spot do to flooding over the years ). williamsgrove : Rode the cyclone when i was a small kid. Remembers when they used to have pretty big musicians perform there (my mom would go see them alot). hersheypark: Remembers when it only had 3 coasters (comet, sooperdooperlooper, and trailblazer). Haven't been there, but > busch gardens: Remembers seeing the advertisements on tv for the new loch ness monster rollercoaster and thinking wow that looks scary . Remembers when the big bad wolf was in the news because it was too rough and injuring people. Remembers when it was still called the old country.

cfc Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 You know, I'm just not seeing the point to this--escpecially since a similar thread about "defunct" rides already exists (as pointed out in the second post in this thread). Locked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coasterbear30 Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 Only three for me that I can think of: Viper (SFOG) Deja Vu (SFOG) Hypersonic XLC (KD) Which I just rode last October. I made it in just the nick of time. And if Carowinds gets rid of Flying Super Saturator then that will be another one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
