Any other Northeast Ohioans? I think we pretty much have the majority of these boards but not too sure. I'd love to visit Sfwoa and meet up with some people. Barely any of my friends ride.
Hey raptorfan00. Were you at Sfwoa on Friday the 16th, where it stormed most of the day. Because I met some kid on Xflight from Kennywood. He seemed to like that ride very much too, lol. By the looks of your top 5 you could be the kid, but it's very unlikely. I really don't think he was a buzzer anyway, just wondering though. I only got to talk to him geting on, going up the lift, and then at the brake run, so I forgot to ask if he was an enthusiast/buzzer. Oh well.
