stupid questions you've heard from a guest
"The Beast has really gone to the pits since the last time we were here. No wonder they changed the name." -A guy to his wife exiting Mean Streak @CP
"It's really owned by Kenny Rogers. Like Dollywood"-Kennywood
"They added all the water around Cedar Point to make it more beautiful. They take some away when they're ready to add something new."
"Sea World isn't inside Geauga Lake"
-You're in luck this year
"How do you get to that stand-up coaster?"-A kid who went through the Adventure Express line 3 times trying to find King Cobra
"So if the Son of Beast is the son, what the hell is the Beastie?"
An over 80 y/o woman back in line for tickets at SFO-
"I'm sorry, I accidently bought four tickets when I should've bought three. My husband passed away last Tuesday and it feels like he's still with us." Ticket guy-"Well stay away from our Superman cause I don't want to have to refund another ticket for ya."(she laughed)

2 10 year old "know it all" kids said all of the following. "Villian`s taller than Millennium Force" "CP moved Magnum to Japan" "ST is made by Bolllliggahr & Mallibardar" "DL has the most inversions" "Does BKF go upside down, i don`t think so" "Let`s go to Boomtown" this was heard at CP in line for MF. "The reason were not moving is because the car got stuck at the top" the car never got stuck at the top, it was on the brakes right behind him.
pfft they're 10! Leave them be!!
Dumbest Question I heard: Why are there no OTSRs on the Canadian Minebuster??

Well usually I don't here too many questions but I here plenty of funny statements. I love it when someone's talking about a coaster and they get the names and/or the stats wrong. I overheard one guy at SFA make up his own names for every coaster in the park. He'd only get one part of the name right if it had two or more words in the title. People like that you just got to leave alone and laugh at.
Intamin Fan: That guy is the perfect example of why Six Flags, Disney, and Paramount purchase clones (or near clones) and name them the same thing... because the average patron does not even know what ride they are standing in line for. Why waste the money in making everything different if people will just get the names and stats wrong anyway?
My Favorite: What does this ride do? -Lady in the outside queue for S:TE
Honorable Mention: This ride goes like 90mph, sometimes 100! -Kid in line for GhostRider.

"X" marks the spot in 2001!

Going to turn my ticket in to get into Universal Studios, People walk through the one next to me with DISNEY tickets. THey had a big picture of Goofy and Mickey on them and said DISNEY 3-DAY HOPPER.
The people then wondered why they weren't let in.
THAT was very, VERY stupid. :D

Millenium Force is the fastest roller coaster in the world.
No park is better than Cedar Point, because it has the most roller coasters (this is said AFTER SFMM announces X and Deja Vu and Goliath Jr)
Wooden coasters suck because they don't go as high as steel coasters
The Mean Streak is the best wooden coaster ever because it is at Cedar Point
Blue Streak sucks because it is shorter than Raptor
The Big Dipper (SFO) sucks because it is old
The Millenium Force is made from pieces of the old Magnum
Does this go upside down (entrance to Double Loop)
Does this go upside down (entrance to Huss Enterprise)
The Jack Rabbit sucks because it doesn't race.
Block brakes are used so the car doesn't go to fast and fall off the track
They are going to make another Raptor and make it race
Mantis is becoming a floorless coaster
(Add coaster name here) got stuck upside down for two hours and lots of people died
Batman at SFO is being moved across the lake to build a wooden roller coaster to race with Raging Wolf Bobs.
Just a sample from queue line conversation eaves dropping.

One day while at SFStL I heard some kid say that The Boss is the tallest, fastest, and longest wooden coaster on the planet.

In about 1980 I rode Screamin Demon, the old Arrow launched shuttle loop at PKI. The line was about 30 minutes long during which we watched watched many train loads of people go back and forth through the loop. Finally, our turn to ride came. We sent through the loop forwards, stopped on the far side, and I heard the guy in front of me holler to his companion, "What do you mean we're going to go through the loop again backwards?!!!!"
This isnt a queston but is was one of the stupid conversations that me and my friend had.

What's funny about those?
CP advertised MF as the fastest rollercoaster in the world, a non coaster enthusiast wouldn't know about SD2k.
CP also advertised that they had the most coasters most people in Ohio don't even know SFMM exists let alone that tey are getting 3 coasters next year.

Get wrapped in the coils of Viper at SFGAm.
Actually, a lot of people at my school and that I've known have heard of Magic Mountain. Out of Ohio, I think it's the third most known under the Disney parks and Dollywood. A lot of them never even knew there was a Six Flags in Ohio or even in Kentucky. Obviously whoever made the comment had never been to any other parks or was just trying to impress someone.

Hey, hey, hey, we I saw Screamin Demon back in 1985 I really did think that you could get off on the other side, and that people that wanted to ride backwards could get in on that side....then again I was NINE

On a weekend visit to DCA in line for California Screamin', a man told his group of friends (behind me & my party) that CS was the first Disney coaster with a loop.
Another time @ Knott's, I overheard a small boy tell his father and sister that Supreme Scream bounces back up after the drop because if it didn't, it would crash into the ground from going too fast. I chortled. *** This post was edited by kRaXLeRidAh on 3/11/2001. ***

when giant drop opened at sfgam i remember all these guys were walking in the direction of the sky trek tower thinking it was the giant drop and saying how there was no line
When working on Roller Coaster crwe this summer at Lagoo Amsument park the ticket taker turned to me and the supervisor on the ride with a problem: If you ever been to Lagoon, on Roller Coaster the ticket taker also checks lap bars on slower days. Well to do that they lock the turnstile. A common hazard, especialy for men. Well this drunk guy came RUNNING up the ramp and the ticket taker yelled many times "STOP! The Turnstile is locked!" He didn't and actually BROKE the steel peice off then after I went up to him and explained why he could not ride we turned five minuets later to find him climbing up a fence to the elevated Coaster station. Talk about a drunkin fool!
