How long will you wait to ride a coaster?

I'll wait as long as it takes to get to the front.
Army's motto is hurry up and wait, so Im used to doing nothing for hours on end.

I mostly go in the Spring & Fall and never wait more than 15 minutes. If I did go in the Summer, the longest I'd wait would be 45 mins to an hour. There's too much other stuff to do than wait and wait for a ride that's over in a few seconds!
I waited four hours to ride Sonny the second day open to the public and was only the 50th or so person in line.William
It depends on the situation. If I'm traveling cross country to ride X, I'm going to be in line for X however long it takes.
Opening weekend of MAMBA...3hours!

I waited 2hrs.40 mins for "Face/Off". God knows why, the ride only lasted about 45 seconds, and it had been open over a year!

#Life is a rollercoaster you just gotta ride it#
On opening season for Steel Force I waited 20 minutes. On opening day for Lightning Racer
I waited 30 minutes, for the back. On opening season for Great Bear I waited 15 minutes. The longest I have waited for any coaster was 45 minutes for Apollo's Chariot. I really can not stand waiting at all! After I see a long line I just leave and come back later. Ususally I devise methods to be wherever the crowds aren't, escpecially at HP. I avoid lines the entire day.

'Nuff Said
I have waited for 1 hour for the front seat of Alpengeist and 45 minutes for the front seat of Apollo's Chariot. It was well worth it. We have season's passes to Busch Gardens Williamsburg, so we usually go when it is not as crowded.
The longest I've ever waited for any coaster is an hour and a half. I've been lucky based on some people's comments above. The least they could do if the wait is over 3 hours is to put some porta-potties in line. I think it's inhuman to wait longer than that without bathroom facilities and some parks are very strict about you leaving the line and coming back.
For Wild Thing I'm willing to wait 1hr 15 min, I'll wait a solid 45 min for the BOSS and B:TR but for anything else I get pretty antsy. Unless, of course it was my idea to go on the ride with a bunch of friends. Then I have to pretend like waiting is a blast.
