The Greatest Wait

I'll second Zingo! ;o)

Nasai: See, I prefer to have a couple of the nice gals behind me accidentally colliding with me now and then.

Once upon a time in a certain waterpark I won't name, I kept getting nudged by one of four bikini-clad younguns who'd always be looking the other way during my post-bump glancebacks. So I just ignored them. The bumps got more frequent, the giggling got louder and more frequent until finally one of them reached up and gave me a stinging slap to the right cheek.

And I couldn't have been in line for TTD why?

Wait: which cheek?

<AustinPowers>cheeky b*st*rd!</AustinPowers>

Playa, now THAT is funny. Where were you when I was in line for TR:TR when those pain in the ass kids tried to cut? ;)

Didn't you have the big, bad Peabody to protect you Rob? ;)

I remember when you told us that story at SFGAm, and then later in the day, you were standing up to some punks in American Eagle's line. :)

You are my hero. :)

Snipers for dealing with line-jumpers. ;)

Queue paths that don't have you walking back and forth just seeing the same eye-candy over and over again.

Yes 'playa which right cheek was it?

Flight of Fear was a good wait, because the theming was quite cool. I actually went at a time when there wasn't a queue, so I stood in the hangar and watched the video once...

Star Trek: The Experience would have also had a cool queue, had I not been with a person that had absolutely NO interest in Star Trek. Long walls of Enterprise history were cool to me, sucky to her.

Raptor was fun once, because I was part of about 20-30 people that were "feeling the funk" while they were playing CarWash and other 70's music.

Favorite Queue: The one where the girlfriend is feeling frisky.

TVs are really nice to have in a line, unless the sound is being pumped through the PA at about 160 decibles, like Hulk.

I know you were exaggerating, but at 160db, everyone in line would be deaf after a matter of minutes.

I'm confused here....looking at the "same eye candy" over, and over, (and over?) again....this is a BAD thing?

Perhaps you have a different definition of the term than I do, LOL...:)

Scott, thanks. Honestly, I don't know what came over me that particular trip. Perhaps it was the feeling of empowerment when standing amongst other enthusiasts? Perhaps I am just a anti-line jumping bastard? Both? Hmmm.... ;)

Actually, I still do the same thing. I firmly believe a line is for waiting, and analyzing other riders behinds. Anything else is meant for the food service lines, where I personally don't care what happens. Let somebody else pay those prices first!

Test Track at Epcot has pretty kool queue, actually most of the Disney World rides due, just Test Track really stands out to me.

I think we need more queue's that actually have theming and have accompanying music. The DJ's at Cedar Point are nice when they are actually there, but I like it when coasters have their own theme song, like Millennium Force. Something that is instantly recognizable with that coaster. That adds a lot for me.

'gator, I like the paths to vary in length on the double backs so you can see more/different eye-candy.
