An Unusual ride you Just Loved?!

I love roller coasters, fla rides, and water rides.  But is there a ride at a park or fair you just love?

 

  I love fun houses at fairs. They give me a nice lon experience.  I like those.

Choo-choo trains! I love 'em! Especially reall steam trains like CP and DL. I really enjoy Calico Mine Ride at Knott's.
-----------------
Yeeee Haaawwww!

Of course, Pirates of the Carribean is great, if for anything, the awesome fake nighttime sky. I always wanted to eat in the restaurant in there

At fairs, I love the Zipper (As long as I dont get the car that was recently puked in).

My other car is a Giovanola!

If you see me running, try and keep up!

I have to say that the Haunted House at Magic Kingdom is a ride that I adore. the whole atmosphere in the ride is amazingly funny and creepy all at the same time. It is such a classic ride!! 
The Bumper Cars @ Little A-Merrick-A I swear they give you at least 10mins on the Bumper Cars Its sweet!
This really isn't a ride, more of a show/attraction, but I just absolutely love Poseidon's Fury at IOA.  Love it.  Everything about it is awesome, the effects, the theme, everything.  I also have like for Skyscrapers like the one at Dorney, even though I've never been on one before.  Just looking at them makes me drool.  They look awesome.  :)

There was an old midway attraction (years ago) that was called "Toboggan" that was a vertical mine-shaft/tube climb ride. It brought you up to the top (about 40ft up) and once you reached the apex, the track turned and spiraled around the tube to the bottom where the car went over a series of dips, and corners.  The car that you rode in was for 2 people and was enclosed like the Skydiver (ferris wheel type ride), and in fact, might be the same vehicle, except on wheels...  I don't know when it stopped making the rounds at the fairs, but I last remember it in the mid 80s.  Anyone else remember this one of a kind ride?  This was at the Puyallup Fair in Puyallup, WA.

*After reading another thread on here, I realized that it was a Chance Toboggan.  Regardless, I always loved it, and it ended so violently!*

Paramount Carowinds: Forgotten but not Gone

I like Tampico Tumbler at KBF. I'm also partial to Star Trek: The Experience. The transport part at the beginning is the very best!

Hahaha, I've had some GREAT experiences with the River Rocker at SFGAm, it's a swinging ship doohicky. My guy friends like to share with the rest of us that their area feels weird on that. Anyways, it's REALLY fun, considering how tame it is.
Something called Tornado.Im not sure what its called elsewhere. Its a spinning ride where chairs dangle and you can manually spin the chair car you're on.
I love the High Miller at the LA County Fair. I rode that ride 6 times when I went this year. I got more airtime out of that coaster in one ride than I get at a whole day of riding at SFMM.
The Zipper is my favorite!

I love the Modial Top Scan! That thing pulls the most amazing manuvers! One second you're twirling vertically 60 feet in the air and the next you're being flung straight down towards the ground, great stuff.
Rotoshakes (I think thats what they are, you know, the Giant Axe at the Mall of America) I find fun, unless a little girl is screaming in your ear.

My all time favorite though is Sky Scraper. Been on one once, that was enough to convince me. Who would be able to guess a 80 foot radius, 55 mph chair is relaxing?

Hey, SFGAm management, can I buy a couple cages of Sky Whirl?
