New SFGAm Rides

Ok.

#1. Everybody has their own little wish list.

#2. It's usually not the same as the parks wish list.

#3. I have heard the term "flat-landers" used a lot. Maybe you haven't because people who live in Illinios don't call eachother that.

#4. I am crabby.

#5. listing things is fun.

The best Chicago sports team is still the BULLS. Jason Williams should be coming our way, if we get the #1 pick!!! Unless Krause drafts that 7-5 center from China, the oriental Shawn Bradley. It's another disaster waiting to happen.

I think you Wisconsinites (or whatever you call yourselves) should stick to beer, brats and whatever that little pastry is so popular at the state fair. You all are REAL good at that.

Wisconsinites is the right word. Those little pastry thingies are cream puffs, and I myself find them boring. I had one at Oktoberfest last year, and it seemed like eating puffy powdered sugar on a light bun of some sort. Beer and brats, not a better combination in the world. However, you forgot the most important thing. Cheese. If you want the best cheese curds in the world, goto Simon's Cheese Factory in Little Chute, WI. It's about 20 miles south-west of Green Bay. They squeek so loud you'll wake up the neighbors if you eat them at night.

Now to settle the pizza debate. The best pizza in Wisconsin is near Eagle River, in a small town called Three Lakes, at The Harbor Campground. The best pizza in the world is in Chicago, at any of the multiple Barnabe's (sp? It's been a while since I was there, so I can't remember the exact spelling) They have the best sauce, standard quality cheese (it's not from WI, thats for sure ;)), great meat toppings, and the world's best crust.

When did American Eagle get more airtime than Viper?

Gack! Barnaby's?!? Good pizza?!? [faint]

Their pizza is the worst (ok, maybe not the worst - I save that distinction for Little Seizures - oops Ceasar's - or Dime-a-ho's - oops Domino's)

-----------------
Posting, "Me too" like some brain dead AOLer. I ought to to the world a favor, and cap you like old yeller...

Their is a reason why most of the Barnabys shut their doors. Until you brought it up, I pretty much forgot about that place. "Best pizza?" I dont think so.

-----------------
""To be the man, WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!, You got to beat the man""!!!

They used to have a Barnaby's in Milwaukee and that place seriously sucked.

Another thing I want to respond to that someone brought up earlier was the Space Shuttle simulator. That thing is just such outdated technology with all the flashy simulators elsewhere that they should just bite the bullet and knock the thing down. Either that or get one of those standard simulators you see all over Florida and stick it in there(ala Star Wars, Adventures of Akbar, ect...)

Actually, the best sports team in Chicago is *probably* either the Mount Carmel High School Football or Wrestling teams. They've been winning consistantly since the mid-eighties :)

And I'll be honest, I've never had a real New York Pizza *from* New York (Jersey, yes). Are they really that different? And for the record, I dont *hate* the Yankees. While I wont go as far as to say I like them, they are like the Milwaukee Brewers. I am ambivalent towards them. Now, OTOH, the Mets can burn in hell and die slow....

And BTW, what exactly is a "cheese curd"? It doesnt sound very appealing...

--who'd like to see SSA gutted and turned into a Men in Black type shoot-'em-up dark ride.

A cheese curd is a type of cheese chunk thingy that is highly pasteurized I believe. They are absolutely disgusting and I am probably one of the few from this state that think that way.

I like your idea for the SSA too Jeremy. Just gut the whole thing and make it a shoot out attraction of some type.

Mmmmmm cheese curds, yum (hey I was born in Milwaukee, what can I say?). :)

How about Kringles? Now THAT'S good eatin'!

Joe, who isn't very fond of the state, Wisconsin. I have nothing against the people there, but I just don't particularly like the state, that's all!

Hey, Shaggy, it's "Sea *$#@&$ WORLD!" LMAO.

On-topic:
I'd love to see some more modern flats at SFGAm, maybe like a Zamperla Hawk. Then again, a B&M Flyer wouldn't hurt:)

Off-topic:
You want to talk about gastro-intestinal grenades? Try DEEP-FRIED cheese curds. Yummy!!! All the fat and cholestrol a good gut needs.

BTW, I may live in WisCOWsin, but I'm a transplanted Detroiter. Love the food here, but the rest of things could use improving.

As for best sports team, see my new sig.

Later,
