I don't post here very often, but I had to add:
As a ride op, I see that man maybe every other day. He is in the park all the time, like you said, and he gives the ride ops who help him lollipops! He seems to be fine after Vortex (where I work) but if I saw him get knocked around like you did, cassie, that would probably scare me too.. and the other gentleman does not ride with him, which is also a little worrisome...
