Roller coasters and rabbits...

Just to expand on the bunny thing...what made us begin referring to small, consecutive hills on coasters as bunny hops?

I originally thought that maybe someone had taken the hopping motion of a bunny and thought that it was similiar to a small couple of coaster hills. But then again, some bunnies I have seen hop, can really go. They would always out "hop" my dog when he would chase them. Luckily he has never caught one.

Waiting for the CP announcement to be made so that about 1000+ posts will be made complaining about it.

Superrabbit: the escape.

You could go with Nemesis. Except rabbits aren't really evil or anything.

Does anybody have a snake named Viper? :)

It's now college football season. The only thing that makes coasters take a back seat. This also means Rollergator is the enemy again... for 4 months.

RllrCstrDude187, who says rabbits aren't evil? I still get nightmares from big purple bunnys all the time.

You are obviously forgetting The rabbit of Caerbannog--"That's the most foul, cruel, and bad-tempered rodent you ever set eyes on!"...Arrrgh! Run Away! Run Away!

Iron rabbit Rabitts revenge Sonny(son of beast); But a good name would be leaper for leap the dips maybe.

This is a message from don corleone it says lucabratzi sleeps with the fishes.

You could name it gemini.

Forget all that. Just name it Bugs Bunny. That way you can say your rabbit represents 168 coasters currently in operation. :)

Ric Flair was hitting on the female host, he told her - "Space Mountain may be the oldest ride in the park, but it has the longest line." WOOOOO!

We simply named our Rabbit "Bunny". If you want the name to be coaster oriented, Bugs or Jackrabbit are two great names.

On a different subject, can anyone tell the offseason is nearing? ;)
