Roller Coasters

Roller Coasters

Oh, come on! I know damn well there's more than a few of you buying these right now. :)

And here I thought you were an undercover coaster enthusiast in disguise.

You disappoint me sir. :)

That is a funny, but awful pun.

That's actually quite funny. I like it. Not going to buy it, but I like it.

I don't get it...

ba dum che.

(throws tomatoes)

BOOOOOOOOOOO

Did they get those out of Carrot Top's box o' props?

I'll bet Paula has a set. ;)

Oh crap ... is THAT what I ordered? I thought it seemed awfully cheap...

When I identify myself as a coaster enthusiast in conversation, I have had more than one person think I was talking about that kind of coaster, which is almost as silly as what the hobby really is.

Way back in the days of Prodigy BBS (1996ish) I started a thread asking if anyone else was a Peanuts fan -- i.e. Charlie Brown, Snoopy, etc. The first person to reply wrote some big long message about all the Planters Mr. Peanut memorabilia he collected.

I actually do need some drink coasters, but not at $2.50 per + shipping for a piece of cork with a word screened on it. Now, if they had tiny ball bearings on the bottom, thus being a literal roller-coaster, that might be cool. If I ever had friends visit, we'd all have a good laugh until their drink went sliding off onto the floor.

I saw some cool looking coasters, with pictures, on my last trip to Knott's. But the ones in this thread would make a good gag gift for an enthuiast. They are too expensive though. At Knott's the whole set was $3.99.

I have a couple of these. :)

This reminds me of some merchandise Kings Island sold back in 2000 when Son of Beast opened. If you remember way back then, Sonny opened after Memorial Day that year, but the merchandise was out for sale on opening day (and is still probably there). It was simply a ceramic/porcelain beverage coaster with the ride logo on it packaged in a box that bore the words "The first coaster that really works". That one got many chuckles by the PKI regulars.

Lift coasters from different bars... $0.00

Black sharpie... $1.99

Write "Roller" on reverse side of coaster w/ black sharpie.

Total = << $10.00

Forgot where I was posting for a second. :)

Be carefull--the ones from Intamin never work right the first time.

Jeff, i belive those would be Buzz coasters, not roller coaster.
