Happy Hour!!!

OK, just to lighten the mood, how many of you have ridden a coaster inebriated? What coaster was it? What was it like? Most important, will you ever do it again!?

ATTENTION!!...This is the Alter Ego of Goliath Rocks; If he said something stupid, we're sorry, it's the "G"s talking...

*Note* You must be 21 to respond to this thread.

At PKI I had 2 beers with my lunch, not enough to really feel anything, though.

At SFMM this past summer me and some friends from work pounded a few brews in the parking lot before entering. Again, not enough to affect me much. The wait for Goliath (our first ride of the day) was 50 minutes, so I had to go pee more than anything else by the time we were on the ride!

Why would it be closed?

Well, I have to say that skycoasters AREN'T the thing to do after a couple cold ones.

While i never rode a coaster under the influence (mainly for fear of puking). When I was a teenager i went on B:TR at SFGAm after eating some of my friends special brownies, needless to say it made the ride more interesting.

Get wrapped in the coils of Viper at SFGAm.

At CP this past summer. me and my friends took a dinner break at the TGI Fridays out by the water and had quite a few drinks with dinner. Shots, beers, tequilla, mixed drinks. We were all quite drunk when we returned to the park. we immediately rode power tower, both sides and then 3 consecutive trips on raptor. It was a blast. I would recommend it to anyone, as long as they are 21.

All time Top 5: (1) Milleniun Force (2) Alpengeist (3) Hulk (4) Ice Dragon (5) Raptor

A few years back after having too many beers in the parking lot (of SFGAM) I rode Shockwave.
All I can say is that after two rides and fourteen arrow inversions I spent a half hour puke-ing in the bathroom. I'm not sure if it was the beer or the inversions but I don't ride Shockwave very often anymore.

I tied one on at BGW then rode Alpengeist. The S-turn right before the mid-course, which always gives my "that feeling" on Alpie and Raptor, made me feel uneasy.

I tied one on at The Point in Red Garter then Lusty Lil's, then rode Mean Streak. Bad idea. Didn't feel good about that at all.

Generally speaking, if there's anything more than a buzz for me, and I mean the kind that wears off in a short amount of time, I think it would cause some problems for me. I'm in no hurry to find out, because barfing up a lung is not a good time.

Now after the last ride of the night... that's a different story!

When we went to Coney Island in NYC we went to see Sideshow by the Seashore (the last remaing permanently located Freak Show) we sat at the bar talking to the owner for a few hours then left for the Zipper. Nothing like a Zipper half tanked. Then we stumbled our way to the Wonder Wheel, swinging cars of course. Durring the day we didn't hit the kiddie coasters so we hit them (I guess we had to be tanked to pay the $2.50- $3.00 to ride them. By this time our buzz was wearing off as we made our two night rides on the Cyclone.

Not Too Shabby For A Summer

My one friend was feeling pretty happy the first time we drug him on the Power Tower (today he claims that if he would have been sober, he would have never ridden anyways). It was quite an entertaining experience since he kept shouting various obscenities in a very funny voice every time the car was shot up and down. As for me, no, I've never been inebriated on a ride.

Ah the good 'ol times of summer. Coasters and beer, what can go wrong? lol - Though, I was never drunk on a coaster, I had countless hangovers for testrides on Snake River Falls lastyear. That, and climbing the lift to chute was quite helpful.
