Signs you might be a die-hard coaster junkie

115. You can say "Where's the line for the front row>" "That was some sick airtime!" and "I think I'm gonna have a puke!" in Japanese, German, Russian, Italian, French, Zulu, Spanish, Hindu, and Arabic. Bonus if you can say it in two or more dead languages too.

116. You think Milenium Force, Raptor, and Mangum are tame, and only "rookies" think about riding Iron Dragon.

117. 200 ft coasters seem small to you.

118. You can find your way around a park blindfolded.

120. Your criteria for a long term relationship isnt if you both will have children but whether or not she prefers to always wait in the line for the front row with you.


^ How very funny!

121. If the your new girlfriend can survive 5 laps on one coaster, in a row, without hurling, on your first date, a second ate is coming. Conversly, if she yaks on Iron Dragon before the top of the first lift hill, call it a night.

Number's 88 and 100 also apply to me. Although I did visit MM in July this year. It was the first time I have gone there in July since 1988.

122. A large number of the signs we have already listed apply to you.

123. You are able to estimate how many coasters you can ride on a visit, before you get to the park, and have it turn out really close.


My mother (1946-2009) once asked me why I go to Magic Mountain so much. I said I feel the most alive when I'm on a roller coaster.
2010 total visits: SFMM-9, KBF-2
2010 total ride laps: 437

124. You've tried to bribe a ride op to give you "just one more ride," at the end of the day.

125. Not only do you count the number of coasters that you have ridden, you count the number of miles of different coaster track you have been on.

BTW over 100 miles in 2009 :)


Before you can be older and wiser you first have to be young and stupid.

113. You talked your GF into joining a Coaster Club and after one event She was Gone!

Funniest thing I've read here in a long time...

Except that many coaster enthusiasts, for some unknown reason, wouldn't have a "girl"friend, exactly.

Least funny comment I have ever read at CoasterBuzz, ever. We should just skip that one.

Dave, I would have expected at least 2 decimal places from you.

126. Your car's 70,000 mile warranty is used up in less than 2 years.

127. You've had a park mechanic do an oil change (on your car) for you.

128. You had "Love Rollercoaster," by the Ohio Players played at your wedding on a loop.

RGB, the length of several kiddie coasters is not listed so a true accurate number is not possible.

Damn it! Stop the RickRolls.

Other than the RickRoll, cool music video. I never imagined that that version of the song (the non-Rde-Hot-Chili-Peppers version) could be done live so well. Musically, the '70's were full of amazing talent.

Wait, you had that play during your wedding? ...On a loop even? lol


No. I didn't. I'm just say if you love coasters THAT much...

Heck, I don't even have a signifgant other of any type.

Beside, the Ohio Players version was the ORIGIONAL!

129. A real die-hard coaster junkie would have a customized odometer made for the occasion.

Although since we're talking about kiddie coasters, wouldn't it technically be a pedometer?

Sorry RGB, I guess I am to new to this coaster junkie biz. I will try to do better next season.

130 - You get excited to go to a wedding (even though you hate weddings) because you know there is an amusement park down the street that you haven't been to.

Yeah, I am guilty on that as well.


Skol Vikings
Let's shoot us some deer Joe Joe!!!!

131. You have recurring dreams of your hometown in which your unconscious mind inserts new amusement parks that, somehow, you've never discovered before.

Yep.

132. You agree to move your sister (friend, relative, ect.) and drive halfway across the country and back, ONLY because you'll have the chance to stop at a park or two on the way home.

Yep. I did that this summer. I drove my sister and her stuff out to Indianpolis, not only because I love and care for her, but because I'd have chance to stop at Knoble's Grove on the way home. It meant leaving Indy at 3:00 AM, but I managed to get to KG and get a few laps on Twister, the Pheonix, and a ride on the Dodgems.
