Discovery Channel Reality Show

yes everything was paid for...

Petie, what was the Grand prize?

------------------
Riding the Bull anywhere but the back is merely going for a walk.

I really dont want to say...

it would ruin the show for you...

but its a good prize (IMO)

petie, the show was ruined for me when they told me I was one of the finalists that wasn't selected

RagingBullet - I know how you must be feeling and I do mean I "know" how you are feeling. When I was younger, much younger, I raised horses, in one show, out of about 20 entries, my horse and I made it to the final 8, there was only five places, we didn't make it, I was crushed, it hurt more than I could imagine. But, it didn't ruin the horse shows for me, I kept showing, for the next 20 years and sometimes I won and sometimes I still lost. So, don't let this ruin the show for you, I really believe that you'll be there next year. Or before that, they still might call you about another show they would like you for. As my daughter crystal said, regarding the one team, they made a mistake choosing them, they should have chosen those Bull Guys from coasterbuzz, at least they sound like nice, fun people.

bye the way, how old are you?

RagingBullet, don't take the age question wrong, it just sounds to me by your posts, that you're about the same age as my daughter, so i'm just curious.

we're both 18
------------------
If you haven't rode Raging Bull in the back row you haven't lived. The feeling on that first drop cannot be explained in words!

I thought you were close in age to Crystal and Petie, she's l7 and Petie turned 17 this past week.

Petie, was it weird being in the park by yourselves and having cameras following you around?

------------------
TOP 5
1. Alpengeist, 2. Magnum XL-200, 3. Superman: Ride of Steel (SFNE), 4. Nitro, 5. Volcano: The Blast Coaster
Close Calls 1. Apollo's Chariot, 2. Grizzly (PKD), 3. Medusa (SFGAdv)

you never really felt alone...there was about 100 people on crew and the cameras were actually kind of fun b/c the camera operators were so much fun...though there were a few times where I forgot about the cameras and we left a few swears out...look for those to be bleeped!

Wow its been awhile for this forum...

Amazing since the last post...the show has been put together...

today I had a phone interview with a local paper.
also in homeroom today our principle made an announcement saying that everyone should watch the show!

I cant believe its on MONDAY (9pm and midnight) on the Discovery Channel!

The host of the show has seen the show and emailed me saying it is really funny and great...

MONDAY

That must have been great fun to be on a reality show. We have some famous people here at CBuzz... and it's probably going to be really amazing to see yourself on national TV. It's too bad you were eliminated first! But isn't a free day at SFMM enough? :) Can't wait to see the show.

Petie, is there any way that you can put the extra footage online so we can see what we missed?

Where in Ohio are you from Petie?

That mustve been a great experience.

I really dont know what team you're talking about that you guys disliked....the two old guys (orange?) that would be my guess but I dunno...maybe the two girls (green?) Oh well.
