flightoffear1996 Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 Make sure you keep your hands inside the car on the Tornado. I got kicked out of the park for putting my hands up on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZosoBeast Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 Make sure you keep your hands inside the car on the Tornado. I got kicked out of the park for putting my hands up on it. Are you serious? I do know a certain group of people that usually end up getting kicked out for doing some serious snaps on the scooters, but never for hands up on the Tornado. Hmmmm.....

BavarianBeatle Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 My kids' baseball league rents out Stricker's Grove at the end of every season for their awards night. Always a wonderful time! I have never seen anyone kicked out for raising their hands on the Tornado, or do any "serious snapping" on the scooters. The only time I saw anyone get kicked out (and deservedly, I must say) was when they changed seats on the train while it was moving by climbing on the outside of the train.

teenageninja Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 ^ Oxymoron above, no such thing as a "cool enthusiast" ZING. I would like to go, but I don't have the money right now, so I'm working instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted August 9, 2008 Author Share Posted August 9, 2008 Hmmm. As one who gave away nearly all his coaster attire some time ago, I suppose this is yet one more sign I am no longer a coaster enthusiast, much less a cool one.

Terpy, older than most of his wardrobe, but not all of it How funny. The only shirt that I have (and Avatar will probably appreciate) is for Disney's California.... Grizzly River Expedition. It's actually a nice enough shirt that I can wear to work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueangel04 Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 I was just wondering if they are going to do there customer appreciation day in october again? We went to the family fun day last year and they gave us a flyer with the information on it for a day in october that they were going to be open again. Does anyone have any information about this? I would really appreciate it. Thank You! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
