rotag Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 first of all if i forget someones name or mispell it; i am sorry. i am never good with names. anyway i started my day off by getting up @ 2:30a.m. and getting a shower and rolling out of my house. by the time i get to the front parking gates it is a little past 5a.m. much to my suprise found about 15 cars in front of me. once the parking opens i travel quickly to nab my space. SCORE. i end up walking all the way up to the detectors and wouldn't you know it. i left my wallet in the car. boy did i feel stupid. as i was walking back to the front i got to talkin with a bidder. cant remember his number but i think he said his bid was $246.39. i get back in line and here a security personel shout two lanes down there. i go down there and find out 5 min. later it was for the bidder's. strike two. once the security opened the check points it was a frenzy all over. while i was walking trying to get my feet to wake up and un-numb. i secured a spot at the face painting station. then when they opened up for gold and platinum pass holders it was on again. standing out infront of the diamond back sign. i saw a kid look at the sign and look at me. doing a double take he say's "i see a resemblence!" i began to laugh. at that point the line was struggling to fill in its gaps so there was very little wait time. i got on and realized hey the wedge is more conforming to my gut. which was pure comfort to me. as the train made its way to the top of the hill in no-time flat. i shortly found out i would no longer be sat. i will admit the air-time scared me at first. i wasn't expecting the photo. so by the time i saw it. it was a little late for me to strike a pose. so i was mouth agape and smiling at the same time which created a horrific look. every time i put my hands up i would tuck my feet under the seat for added security. then when i saw my photo i met tom 76527. he was really freindly. then i went and rode The Beast which was a smooth ride. thank you new lumber supports. then went and sat on a bench ant talked to a guy who said his son was a member. then went to the tower for photo's. and met another member who wanted to remain nameless and said he wasn't terpy but his name began with a p. then i went and put my souviners in a locker and on my way to Action Zone met giga and her buddy. sorry like i said i am not good with names. but they both looked great. went to ride Invertigo and halfway thru the wait. the ride broke. so i went to check out Delirium and dt and the lines were too long for me. so i got me a bite at the panda express, i got a panda bowl{chow mein, orange chicken}, and strolled thru coney mall. didnt bother waiting for Vortex and blsc. so i rode the train. it got past boomerang bay ind it started sliping so it had to back up and try again.then got on db again and sayLINE JUMPERS. how i hate them so, but the got busted and thru like a temper tantrum, they were adults so thank you karma. got another shirt and put it up in locker. got a drink band and went to ride scathm. i scored a like wow but still wished it was pt. rode db a third time and got my third and final shirt before they ran out. put it up in the locker and rode flightdeck. then went back and rode db as a single twice. i met capt. nemo while he was working. then waited in line for my sixth and final time. went up on tower to get night photo's. i began to feel . so i went back down and shilaxed under the corner support. when i felt all good again i went to the candy shop. bought some taffy and rock candy. went to get my goodies out of the locker and turned the key in. got out to the car and my clock said 9:23p.m. and on my way back home i accidentally ran over road kill and stopped at the rest area past batesville to take a nap. i woke back up went to vending machine and got the shakes from my sun/wind burn and said screw this ill get taco bell in greensburg.

TopThrill Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Nice and detailed TR Rotag1299. So there was people there waiting before 5am lol. Around 1pm the line had shorten around the I-Street showplace, I was going to wait for it but my legs and knees were to sore. So we left just past 1pm, wish I had went up the Tower to take pictures of the parking lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
