Thanks also to the people who worked hard to put it all together. It was nice meeting some of you for the first time, including almost the entire podcasting crew!
Thanks again! *** Edited 10/22/2006 4:36:46 PM UTC by Jeff Young***

I had a great time as well. There's nothing like getting on Top Thrill Dragster, riding the ride, getting off the ride, going up the exit and getting back into the exact same seat on the exact same train on the very next cycle. I didn't even have to adjust my seatbelt because it was already done!
...That is awesome, glad you had a good time, wish we could've made it. Never had that experience with TTD. Maybe next year.
Start the day with a rollback on Dragster, and end the day on Phantom's Revenge. That's the life.

Thanks Jeff for putting this together.
I didn't see you guys anywhere, though!
The TTD ERT was worth the $42 bucks alone. After that first hour I could of left and been happy!
I think it was funny that they were BEGGING to get people to re-ride near the end of the ERT. There were only like 10 people the last 20 minutes or so.
It was my DREAM ERT come true. What a great day! The fried chicken wasn't too shabby either. :) The costume tour thing was fun. Thanks to Jeff and CP for putting the event together!
Oh, and Maverick is looking VERY VERY sweet! WOW.

Ooh, well done!
The pasta and chicken looked pretty good, but I had to pass on them. No big deal, though, I'm used to that.

Coasterdad, I remember seeing the same guy which kind of made me laugh a little.
However, I think there was plenty to go around and I think everyone was pretty happy and stuffed. Then again our crowd was relatively small compared to some events I have been to. I have been to events where they said "Eat what you can, there might not be enough to go around for seconds!" or "Please only get two pieces of chicken and/or one burger and one hot dog!" ;)
The chicken and potato salad were VERY good. I didn't try the pasta.

I look forward to seeing the video of the makeup shop. Mostly because I could barely hear a word the guy said. I could hear Bryan though.

I know there's a Blues Brothers joke in there SOMEWHERE... ;)
Had such a great time and I'm glad I was on that first train out with the rollback. Good to see you again, Tina, and I enjoyed hanging out with Gregleg. I still say Kara and Matt beat you and 'Playa on the Balloon Race!
It was a wonderful time. Only complaint was the poor service at Coasters. Even the crowds (and it was packed!) weren't a bother as I spent the entire day with great people.
Great pictures over on Pointbuzz thanks to Walt.
I'd rather die living than live like I'm dead
I hope Playa posts the video of us on Balloon Race, as well as the video of Kara giving me a piggyback ride (yes, this was a...different...kind of event :) )
