There used to be a pen by Gaint Drop used for horses(don't know if it's still there) but I can see why they would say that so I don't really blame them.

Well, to tell you the truth, we are also considered part of the GP, we are not any more special than they are to any park, the only difference is that we know a lot more than they do.

Officially we are, but it's an argueable topic. If you're a member of ACE or any other special group that has private events at parks then you are "more special" than the rest of the GP.

1) "Someone fell out" (when V2 has an E-Stop)
2) "LOOK!!! Déjà Vu is stuck"
3) "Did you hear about the girl who died on Déjà Vu?"
4) "Superman: Ultimate Flight is stupid
5) "Whizzer should have been takin' down" (in my opinion, true)
It's green. It's blue. It's all over you! Enjoy your ride on Déjà Vu

I have a few favorites....

in no particular order...

Is that the waterpark? (points at reflection pond)
Is that the fastlane for the bathroom?
I heard that one gets stuck upside down (demon or Vu)
Is that one scary?

There are many more, those are my personal favorites though, especially the second one.

All you coaster fanatics are just so cool, the general public are so funny, it's like talking to a baby. Why do you think you are so much better than everyone else, just because there life isn't rollercoasters?

Wow... I really dont have much to say to that.



I, in my spare time am a coaster enthusiast. Its no different from someone who watches sportscenter every night (which i do to) Its no different from someone who likes to shop alot. Its a hobby. So yes, I think im cool, and I think I am "so much better" at stuff when it comes to rollercoasters!


And what do you do that gives you a right to say this?

Yeah, I understand it's a hobby, i love going also, I also play baseball, but I just don't see why you have to have topics about the "general public" like they are morons.

Have you ever looked around you at a Park, or at any other large public gathering? There is a good amount of stupid people out there whether it is GP or not. Making fun of them is just a way of passing time in an entertaining way. This particular thread just happens to focus on the stupid people in the GP.

If making fun of the less intelligent wasn't so entertaining, do you think Leno would keep doing the Jaywalking bit on his show?
It's the most fun in the park when your laughing in the dark.

when someone in Line for Bull says "this one is almost as high as Eagle" to his kids acting like he knows his stuff, it is impossible not to laugh.
1. Voyage
2. X
3. Millenium Force
4. Top Thrill Dragster
5. Raging Bull

'05 Bull: 113
'06 Bull: lost count but not a lot

5.) Someone asking me if I've ever been on "this" ride... as they make a loop motion with their finger.
4.) I get stuck upside down on [insert ride name] every time I come here!
3.) Look!!! A brand new ride!!! (points to the yellow BTR)
2.) Anyone saying "This ride looks wussy" before taking their first ride on Ragin Cajun.
1.) "How much longer until we get to the station for that big orange ride?" ...as the person has already been in line for Viper for over 40 minutes. :P
Finally Coaster Season!!

Sadly I kinda thought like that when I was younger and standing inline for Viper (although I knew I was inline for Viper, I just wondered where the line for RB was kinda silly thinking about it now...:lol: )
