If you've ridden this coaster...

Ten points for me, thank God for parish picnics and several little brothers. And it isn't that bad of a kiddie coaster as well. It's much better than the old steel coaster the grove used to have.

What if they named a coaster "Not A Coaster?"

If it gives a thrill I could careless what they call it. As far as Cornball Express goes it fits the park and the ride is a great woodie!

This gets my vote for the worst name, or best name, depending on your perspective:

(I get 10 points too - why does a coaster have to be named after something fearsome?).

I have to agree about the superhero names. I detest those kinds of names so much that I end up with a bad opinion of the coaster without even seeing it.

I really hate superheros and related nonsense - always have.

What about "Standing and loop coaster?"

While it is a sweet idea for a ride and it is slightly more informative than "roller coaster" it just have much ring to it.

Or "Crazy flying coaster?"
I have a feeling something is lost in the translation.

Has anyone forgot all the Superman coasters! I liked it when SFMM started it their Superman ride then it just became an overkill. I think the name Teddy Bear fits the coaster. Cornball Exspress sounds diffrent. It works. Honestly I think Son Of Beast is a little out their with some of the odd names too.
This brings up a question I'm missing from my coaster trivia: where did the term "Bobs" come from? I've always assumed it was short for "bobsled".

Any one know?

Guys don't forget The Flying Coaster. Another bad name is The Blue Coaster. Morey's Piers has bad names. RC-48 and Rollies Coaster. Rollo Coaster in Idlewild.
ok, well how about:

"Temple of the night hawk," "Teeny-Weeny," and "Fantasy Mouse"

Hey! Lets all go ride "Teeny Weeny!

(Oh and, if you took that picture of the Teddy Bear, you get umm.. 20 extra points...)

Here's a good one, Bubbles The Coaster at Storybook Land. http://www.rcdb.com/installationdetail2412.htm

The worst coaster name ever has to be X.

"Dog fart" has to be the winner. The theming puts it over the top. Are you sure someone isn't pulling our leg?

Cornball Express is just a perfect name for that coaster. I can't even imagine it under any other name.

I've taken to calling it Cornball Delight, which is I believe is the only more perfect option. "Cornball Delight, try it, you'll like!"
