The Most Outrageous Thing You Heard Someone Say or Saw Someone Do In Line For A Coaster

At the log Flume at CP last year I saw a bunch of FootBall Jocks 5 of them crammed into a boat yelling and screaming and having a good ol time. Very funny look. 5 big football players stuffed into a boat.

Thanks,

Epcot, Spring Break, "Fairy Tales of the World" show. 25+ college kids decide during the show's finale that they were going to mimic the on stage preformers and do the mamba.

Way back in the early 80's when Opryland was still open, I had a number of friends who would frequent the park and sneak in a few "left handed cigarettes". They would light 'em up while riding the buckets/skyway from one side of the park to the other. Everytime I rode I was looking at the buckets that passed to see if anyone was enjoying their "cigarette" (and in the process I did see MANY folks making out!). Too bad there's not more of these type rides out there now.
This is not in line for a coaster, but this was the most outrageous thing I have ever seen in a theme park. Last weekend, my little cousin and I were riding Zydeco Zinger, the waveswinger, at SFNO. It is after the part when the ride bobs(sorry, I have no idea how to explain it) The ride was still spinning, however, and about 6 feet off the ground, when I look to my left and this little boy takes off his restraint and jumps off, and runs to get his shoes. It was the strangest thing I had ever seen, and then the ride-op saw the little boy, so he somewhat stops the ride and a lady jumps off to, while the swings are still about 4 feet from the ground. I am just thankful that the little boy did not do this while the ride was in full motion, or else SFNO probably would be faced with another law-suit.

"Punks are non-conforming conformists." "Preps rock my Docs." "Tell them about how I'm defying gravity. God! I can't get that song out of my head."
I think this was back in the summer of 2001, when some lady was talking about a coaster in Japan, reffering to steel dragon that broke the sound barrier.
When I was waiting to ride Batman @ Six Flags México, an adult person with 3 kids were assigned to ride at the front and second pairs of seats.

2 of the kids plead the man to let them ride at the fron seat. The man react asking them: "Do you know how to Drive a Roller Coaster Train?.......No?....... Then you can´t ride at front seat!

The kids acepted the argument and they simply conformed with the second row.

Maybe I don´t deserve to ride at front seat.... I haven´t passed my roller coaster train driving course...... Hahahaha.

Quite a few years ago, while walking past the Rotor at CP (told you it was a long time ago!) There was a family.... Lets just say that looked like they were guests on Jerry Springer's show. The toothless woman was telling her grandkids(??) to go with their dady (mullet and all) and get in line, that this was "some sorta slide thing", and "you'ins better hurry up!"

I was going to a show, and didnt have a lot of time, but I would give anything to see the look on there flaces when the floor was six feel below them!

few years ago in line for Raptor i saw a man urinate while in line. It was just wrong. At SFWOA (grr Geauga Lake-and i work there now LOL) while on the double loop several people were convinced that they were going to die because their restraints had not locked yet. Then he came by and stomped the pedal...ok so bad story
People will urinate in Queue Lines cuz they don't want to get out of lines. Parks should have some sort of Portable Restroom built into the lines, or a seperate path that goes to Restrooms that you can do your business in then comeback to where you originally were in line.

Kyle Says: Diamondback was a lot of fun! Made his first time at Kings Island worth it all!

I don't know if this is outrageous, but I thought it was quite odd. In line for Drop Zone at Canada's Wonderland, there where two girls who had shaved off their eyebrows and then drew them on with makeup pens (in general they had on too much makeup, but the eyebrows looked really odd). While in line, one of the girls was erasing and redrawing the other's eyebrow. A lot of people in line were staring and laughing.
At Geauga Lake (at the time of the incident, it was SFOhio), a female in line said that she heard a rumor that SF was going to buy SWO. I thought she was just making up an outlandish rumor (I mean, how unfeasible..LOL). I guess she was right.....and SF was wrong..LOL.

At Great Escape, in line for Canyon Blaster, one guest told someone who was not with his party that a few days prior, he was on a coaster in Montreal that was 400ft tall and went 120mph. I didn't realize Sandusky was a suburb of Montreal.

No further explanation needed. I'm hopelessly lost.

Ha - I have said this many times to scare little kids, when I'm riding in the second seat and they're in the front seat.

"Now you know, if we crash and die, it's all your fault!"


[url="http://www.livejournal.com/users/denl42"]My blog[/url] You said, "I'm gonna run you down." I heard, "I'm an orangutan."
Hahahaha........ That´s a good trick to have a good front seat ride.

saw a lady at Cedar Point getting on the Corkscrew right before I did, she would not give up her purse, despite her daughter's pleas to ride and at several requests of the ride operators. she finally said f*** it, and told her daughter to get out, they were leaving....sad

This was actually on ride and not in line but I was riding Loch Nes Minster several years ago and saw a guy stand up thru the harness. He not only stood up but was turned around and holding onto his friend behind him. This continued from yhe first drop thru the loop and he just got back into his seat seconds before being splattered across the cave opening. He then got up again after the cave and stood thru the last loop getting back in his seat before reaching the station.

Of course half the park saw the guy and reported him as well as the rest of us on the train pointing him out. He still denied it and was let off with a warning and, according to the ride op. I spoke with later, instructed not to ride anymore coasters that day. Well this genious tried to board Nessie again 2 hours later and was ejected from the park finally.

While working on Thunder Road at Carowinds we had this guy that kept coming back week after week and standing up right as one of my co-workers would say not to stand. Each week he was ejected, His pass was confiscated but mailed back to him. Finally he stood and when my co-worker hit the E-stop this guy climbed out and ran down the lift. My co-worker was a crazy countryboy and charged right back up the lift towards him looking to fight but was cut off by a manager also running to get the guy.

On Power Tower this old guy with a toupe went on the ride with hair but came off bald! I felt kinda bad for him because every one was laughing at him but it was still hillarious. He was feeling his head and looking around for his hair. :)
A couple years ago, while waiting for Raging Bull, a little kid in front of me told his mom that the final helix was originally a loop, but it fell over. She just chuckled and so did I.

Hmmm...this one time, in the Millenium Force line, someone had apparently requested a Britany Spears song. And you could tell no one was really enjoying it. Halfway through the song, the DJ cuts it and said, "I've played the mandatory half of the song, now who wants me to continue with it?" A couple cheers go up, mostly teenage girls, and then he asks, "Who wants me to play something better?" And the rest of the full queue screams out. And so we had some good music. It was amusing to watch.

Once while on a trip to Disneyland with a group from Canada, we were in line for Space Mountain. One of the kids in the group asked me (since I was the only American from the group) if the smog over Disneyland was going to "hurt their lungs".... I couldn't think of anything better to say except "No, no, Space moutain is an INDOOR ride..."

I was in line for Power Tower at CP and there was an obnoxious group of high school kids in front of me. The boys in the group were loud and were doing their best to show off for the girls. It was one of those magical moments when everyone in line shut up, and there was a brief moment of quiet... just long enough for everyone in line to hear one of the boys ask (to no one in particular) "I don't know why you girls take so long in the bathroom, why don't you just stand up and pee it'd be a lot quicker." This comment generated gasps of disbelief and snickers from some of us. One of the girls began explaining to him the physics involved in female urination, and it became blatantly obvious to all of his male friends that this big time player and "ladies man" had never actually seen the female anatomy "down there". Nor had he bothered to pay attention in health class.
He was laughed out of line by his friends.
Ticket to CP: $35
Gas from Michigan: $20
Seeing a young asshole humiliate himself in front of his friends: Priceless
