Lessee -

Ohio (obviously) - Kentucky - Indiana - Pennsylvania - Virginia - Tennessee - Illinois - California - Nevada.

Nine for me. But a more important goal for me is to at least visit every state (and I'm not talking about airport connections). I've got 26 so far.

I have ridden in 7 states:

OH(my home state), NY, PA, MD, VA, FL, CA.

I have been also been to North Carolina, Louisiana, Michigan, and Illinois but didn't get the chance to go to any parks while I was there. Oh well, looks like it gives me another reason to go back!

This makes me wonder a bit -- how many states have y'all been to in which you've not ridden a coaster?
I've been to 24 states, so I haven't ridden coasters in 9 of them. And according to this map, I have both visited and lived in Tennessee at the same time. ;)

Edit: I just noticed on the same map that Arkansas is not part of the continental United States. Yet it is, as well. Go figure.

I have rode in: OH, IN, IL, KY. I have been to PA (Hershey) and FL (Disney) and didnt ride any coasters. At that time I was too scared to ride. The only coaster related thing that I rode was Tower of Terror when I went back to Disney (only MGM) in 1998 before RnR opened.

Confusion, denial, terror, ecstacy....

I've been through a lot of states that I didn't ride in (even though I got to see a couple of coasters/parks) on my job related cross country trip this year. :(

NY, IN, Iowa (no idea what the abbrev. is), Nebraska, CO, not to mention the one's I have ridden in (OH, PA, MO, IL).

I've also been to Washington, Arizona, Utah, VT, NH, Mississippi, Alabama, ME, NC, I think I've been to Wyoming, RI, Hawaii, Alaska and never ridden in any of them.
