The Jet Stream @ Six Flags over Mid-America (now SFStL) 1984. I believe this coaster was removed for the Ninja. Actually, there is a picture of me on some little kiddie coaster at the Illinois State Fair circa 1979-80, but since I dont remember that (I would have been 4 or 5) i dont count it. Funny thing is the look of pure terror on my face =].
Mine was the "Screechin' Eagle" at LaSourdsville Lake (now Americana/LaSourdsville) back in 1970. After that it would be quickly followed by the Walt Disney World Resort coasters as they were added, then Florida's Circus World. But my coaster obsession went into full gear last Summer.
Yikes! 200 in 2000 is my goal!

The Corkscrew at Cedar Point. I was scared out of my mind but the second time I rode it I loved it and have been hooked ever since.
American Eagle, red side, 1984. First couple of years I had a love/fear relationship with coasters, then I lost the fear...but not the love.
Gold Rusher at Magic Mountain. Was my favorite until I discovered Revolution.
