Actually from the HuffPost article it looks like the park originally told her she could use the health room and not a bathroom. She has the right to "plop down on a rock" and feed the kiddo. Looks like the parks misstep was using the word discretion. I think she was right to be upset. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So I found an easy fix to the Tower Garden smoking section. Located in the TG area is a wide open space not used currently. It's a tree covered circle basically located between the Carousel and the building used for Delta Delta Die. They then could open the entire TG to general guess and maybe turn on the waterfall Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Just got to the park to get a few rides in quickly.... Parking lot is packed but it's just now starting to sprinkle, maybe people will disperse because of it Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So which sauce is the sauce in question? Which bottle/color? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Oh yeah, my little guy and I get there between 10-11 usually. By no later than 1 or 2 he is toasted. He needs to sleep hard core for about an hour or so. There is no where in the park, that I know of currently, where I can take him where it is cool, semi quiet, and shaded that he can just sleep it off. So we leave around that time for the day.

Agreed, I walked right by that and thought, "wow what a bunch of rude smokers... holy cow thats the smoking area..." If I were to move smoking areas, here is what I would do. In Coney Mall, I would use Flight Commanders former queue area, put some benches or tables over there. Just off the beaten path, but still in a nice area. On the way to Snoopy, what about near the exit of the train ride between WWC and the train. Tower Gardens smoking section be transformed into a smokers area and still keep the fountain part open to everyone. Its like they have this entire area that is unused because as you said, not many smokers decide to smoke and stroll through a relaxing park. Most get a smoke in and then go on with their day...

Tanya that's a fair point, my question has always been why take away a nice spot that can be enjoyed by all (circle in the middle of Coney/ Tower Gardens) and not build a nice out of the way spot? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Maybe it was really just an over reactive employee. But if that's the case, shame on KK for either 1) not preparing these young men and women for this type of thing or 2) use it as a teaching opportunity and not fire the employee. 2 steps forward two steps back....

My top 10 is highly influenced by the people I rode the rides with. Which I think is the point of amusement parks is to help spark memories. Before getting into the list I have to agree that seeing the Eiffel Tower as you drive up 71 and pull into the lot, only to have t disappear in the parking lot, ride the team, and walk through the gates to have the Tower welcome you, is just a glorious glorious memory. 1) Beast: first real adult ride. I remember growing up on that ride and I knew the moment I was no longer was just a little kid was when my mom or dad didn't keep an arm draped over me to keep me from flying out. Not sure why but Beast has memories associated with my mom and her riding it with me. 2) White Water Canyon: standing in an hour long line with my aunt and grandma as try told me about the gum trees. You know where thy pick chewing gum to go in the packets! But this ride is the only ride I have a memory of riding with my aunt and grandma. 3) King Kobra: walking into the queue line beneath the station and it was lined with the tall wood fences added a mystery to the ride. 4) Racer: fun air time, enjoyable every time 5) Kenton Keelboats and Race for Your Life Charlie Brown. Growing up we would hit these back to back. I associate this ride with my dad. He would be in charge of making sure my sister an I didn't fly out of the boat. 6) Phantom Theater: air conditioning, an enjoyable story, and made me feel younger it was a great mix 7) Days of Thunder Action Theater: from the theme of the queue with race cars to the actual ride it was fun. Hone table mention goes to the James Bond replacement 8) Top Gun/Bat: the theming of the ride was so cool to the young me. This was also the only ride I have ever chickened out at. At the last minute I freaked out (after waiting in a full line when it first opened) and was left to sit in the child jail . I also remember camping and hearing the lift hill motor go off in the middle of a severe electrical storm. 9) Antique Cars: rode this when I was little and have the memories of my cousin letting me drive. I really do miss those cars 10) the Jetson Orbiters: if my memory recalls you could push on a bar and it would raise/lower the car (or at least that's what they told us).... Tied at this spot would be the Flintstone bumper cars Banshee/Diamondback/FOF/SOB/BLSC are all nice coasters or unique coasters in their own way, but it's something about memories that change the way you look at things. Now ask me this question when my son asks me to take him on big rides and these listings are sure to change Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

and I hoped you would have linked to this sexism and cigarettes... together

sooooo a former Disney executive takes over the park chain and in a few years time we are beginning to see Disney like extras being added to the parks...

from my experience Dermabond works a bit better...

No one is calling anyone a liar. Doesnt matter if you are telling the truth from as you see it, the guard would have his version of the truth. Then there is what actually happened. Thats why in a car accident, the police take both stories. Not because one person could be a liar, its to figure out what happened. And next time, maybe not laugh so loud.

Oh I see what your saying. Im not sure I agree with it was added as sensationalized, or at least no more than when you see a story about a teacher doing the same thing. I actually think the fact that he worked at DW is the bigger story. People are arrested for this, but you never expect one of them to be employed at a place where they would be around youngins.

I was actually very happy with the current ride selection available for the wee little ones. Very surprising and how great they are. But another ride in there would be good as well Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ummm no. He worked around children. He had child porn... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have no problem with a designated smoker section being nice. I have a problem with the park taking a nice resting spot for people of all ages and turning it into a smoking section. Heck they have an entire queue building not being used. Couldn't they find a way to turn that into a smoking section (Flight Commander)

Double post because I have issues with Tapatalk ... The smoker area in Coney is also "in the way"... another nice tree lined area in the middle of the walk way designated for smokers. Two problems with this. 1. The smoke still blows directly into the mid way, 2 the other areas to sit and rest in Coney are either in direct sunlight/no trees or the ones that have trees have KI workers set up in front of them.

Yea Tower Gardens saddened me the other day. I vaguely remember the waterfall from when I was little. My little guy needed a break from the heat so I wanted to stroll through there but there were 5 to 7 smokers in there and no water running. But the brick and the trees made it seem like such a nice area to beat the heat. Instead we sat under the Skyline pavalion... not nearly as nice

Well our poster did say he was laughing excessively loudly..... maybe someone complained to the security guard? Also challenging a security guard or officer with lines like "I pay your salary" is not only childish but rude. When your retort is that because you didn't like a rule it shows how mature and responsible you are or in this case are not.

I was being sarcastic. (We really need a sarcasm font on here). JDF stated he would like it better if for $10 more they offered unlimited drinks.
