Acting Stupid - CoasterBuzz

Have you and your friends ever acted really dumb at a park? I have several times. One comes to mind....

It was like a month ago at CP and me and my friends where getting on the Mean Streak. The op there was really nervous for some odd reason because he was tripping over the floor boards and fidgeting. So , we got on the ride and my friend put his seatbelt. Since they don't really lock good, it came undone on the lift. He started freaking and screaming. He eventually somehow passed out (don't ask me, he was just really scared). The ride ops just thught he was joking so they kept the ride going. After the ride was done, he wokeup and asked what happened. He said he thought he just survived an earthquake in a dream. We walked off the ride and waited for our friends to come off the next train. When the train rolled into the station, the op lost his balance and eventually fell on the arrived train. He just so happened to land on one of my friends and he "fake" cuss the ride op out. Then he apoligized and so did the op. Then he walked over a trash can in the op station and threw up. It was really weird. I know this deosn't sound funny but it was hilarious at the time.

your story is...weird. as for acting weird, if anyone hears a bunch of people yelling "extreme cow" @ SFGA then you've just met Bob, the Coaster Jedi, and his friends. we were in line for B:TR when one of my friends saw a guy carying a huge stuffed cow and he had a wrestling shirt on. it was a Hardy Boyz shirt and the Hardys are also known as Team Extreme because they do a lot of crazy stuff. so he laughed and said extreme cow. from then on we started yelling that at the top of the lifts. pretty funny to see other people just looking at us like we're crazy.

On Goldrusher @ SFMM, I make it a point to scream at the top of my lungs when we depart the station. If you are unfamiliar with Goldrusher, it is a family mine car style ride. Out of the station it takes a small 2-3 ft drop as it heads down a long 50ft flat section before heading up the lift hill. If there was ever a place NOT to scream, this is it. So I SCREAM! Stupid, but I amuse myself when I do it. Off topic, at Baseball games when everybody yells "Charge!", I wait til they're done, then yell it all by myself. It embarrasses the people who are with me, and the looks on other people's faces are priceless.

My Brother and I everytime before a launch on Montezuma, would scream 'WOOGIE' as loud as we could. It is an old family joke. My sister never wants to go on rides because she doens't like the Woogie feeling in her stomach...

on Gold Rusher i was putting my head back (so i couldnt see) and out to the side and screaming which is not a very good idea cause there are poles and supports and stuff i almost hit one

One of my friends is really funny. When I went to Elitch Gardens with him, he would scream diaheria on the Mind Eraser's lift hill. It is so f****** hilarious!! And he would do that on the other coasters at Elitch Gardens.

Before the Western Round-Up was removed from the park, we would try to talk to chicks (if there were any on the ride) and he would also scream really loud and scream diaheria. It's hilarious! :)

lol very funny. I have a couple of moments that come to mind. One was as my friend was coming off the BAT exit at PCW, (it's a wooden bridge that becomes super slippery when wet, and guess what it was raining) and we were running like morons to try and make it to the Shockwave line before they closed it...well I stopped, but he slipped...jumped in the air.....landing flat on his @ss.

Hmmmm.... i guess we all have different senses of humor. I can think of some stupid things people have done that have kind of ticked me off.... in particular when i was on the mine ride at CP a couple years ago, these two guys, prolly about 15, would scream their heads off while going up every chain lift, yelling "oh my god this is so scary" and "we're all gonna die"..... that really just annoyed the hell out of me. Maybe i have become jaded at my old age of 19.

I'm 14 and I think its really annoying too. I was beside this guy, about 15-17, on Vortex, the stand-up at Carowinds and all he did was shout like an idiot about how much "they" hurt. I couldn't enjoy the ride.

This really isn't the right place to discuss what's funny and what isn't. However, I WOULD like to point out that there are plenty of people who behave badly and give "enthusiasts" a bad name. Something to think about...
