MarketingExpress Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 I believe the 1 millionth rider on SOB was shown on the evening news and got a gift basket of some sort. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mtl2013 Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 So, for those who may not know, not likely, The 1,000,000th rider got a sign and a couple of pictures. Also, tons of applause but thats not really an object hahaaha. Also, i found it interesting that going up the first hill, DB has a sensor to tell where there are empty seats. So the count was exactly at 1,000,000. Not counting the empties! just a little fun fact! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beast1979 Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Diamondback's 1,000,000th. I believe the individual record currently goes to Darlene Bell with over 500 rides. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colonel_SoB_fan Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 I read from a family relative that Jim got a t-shirt and hat as well as the sign and bragging rights Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtl2013 Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Oh cool. I thought it was just the sign........and bragging rights haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coaster Kid Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 I almost have Darla beat ahhh if only swim team finals wernt this week or I would be there everyday this week but all I have is Friday and Saturday well and maybe Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diamondback FOF Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Actually, her name is Darlene. And no, you wouldn't beat her this week. She is well over 500 rides, probably around 550-ish. You've got a couple hundred to go, which wouldn't happen in just a couple days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coaster Kid Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 I only need like 170 or around there till my 500th ride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diamondback FOF Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Well, your sig. says you have 362, thus needing only 138 more to get to 500. But, you said: "I almost have Darla beat ". I was making a point that she is well over 500, and you would need almost 200 more to have more than her, and it wouldn't be happening in just a couple days.

Coaster Kid Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Yes this week I might only get 30 to 35 rides with all 3 days combined. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtl2013 Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 well no matter how much time you spend thre this week, you have no possible way of even getting close to beating darlene. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeLorean Rider Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Yes this week I might only get 30 to 35 rides with all 3 days combined. Do you try to experience anything else while you're at the park? 10 rides per day on Diamondback eats up a pretty good chunk of the day.
