ironic things about parks
What are some of the ironic and/or wierd things you know about parks.
One wierd thing about drop zone at pki is the light poles they have that surround it. Last time I went and it was an extremely sunny day. I took some pictures of dropzone close to the lightpost and the pictures came out wierd. the pole looks taller and bigger than the ride itself. You can hardly tell the difference. If I would give the picture to some non/coaster enthusiest they would tell me it is two tower thins.
Indiana beach is almost on stilts sort of. If you have seen any pictures of the park when the lake is drained you would know what I mean. Half of the park is on "stilt"
Kenny rogers before when He started making plans to build an amusement park wanted to name his park Kennywood. He later found out that the name was already taken by A large park.

Gosh people can't you take a joke. Just laugh and get on with life.

When I was 5 I was almost kidnapped at one of the safest parks...Busch Gardens Williamsburg.
I was behind my family and this guy came up to me and was like did you ride the bumber cars, I said no. So he was like if you come with me we can ride them together w/o waiting! Luckily my Mom grabbed my hand away from his and was like "We can do the bumber cars ourselfs"
He might not of wanted me, mabey he just wanted a friend to ride with. I was only 5 so it didn't bother me. Oh well. Yes this is a true story.

Cedar Point allows everyone to RUN to Millennium
Force in the morning, even though running is against park policy! D'oh!

If they enforced the policy then half the park would get thrown out in the first 5 min! Shorter lines :)

SFMW closing V2 and Roar because they *said* both rides were "experiencing technical difficulties", when it was clear to everyone watching, that the park was laying down new asphalt to the area, in the middle of a very crowded day!
That SFMM has Vortex at PKI on there park map and Chang, and possibly MANTIS on there park map!

Yes that is true, I belive the stand-up coaster IS Chang and the pringles ad IS Vortex but what is the kiddie coaster? BTW, all those add's are in all the Six Flags maps. Even the dog on the back. The only add different is the water add. SFMM's is Arrowhead and I forget what SFGADV's and SFA's is. I have the maps at my house. I'm at my dad's right now. I CAN SEE DCA FROM HERE!

Umm...I don't know if this is ironic as much as a coincidence, but at Carowinds, the ride was temporarily stopped because someone threw up on the Hurler.. Kinda cool name relation there...

Most people refer to Gemini as the best wooden coaster at Cedar Point. That's the best one I've heard. And that Magnum is sinking or is still the tallest coaster in the World or that Cedar Point took it down. All three heard in a single day at PKI. This season. Not really ironic, but odd to hear.
Oh yeah, Gemini is the best wooden coaster at Cedar Point, IMO, too. *** This post was edited by Koaster King on 6/16/2001. ***

Ok, you have dissed people long enough, so its your turn to get it on the receiving end. I do know what Ironic means...thank you very much...and something did happen to me that was ironic. Something unsafe happened to me at one of the "safest parks" sorta ironic dontcha think? Plus your Signature is in all caps. That is like yelling in the forum. That's rude. Why can't you just be nice to everyone here!?
*Comes back to happy self*
