CedarPointer Posted October 10, 2009 Posted October 10, 2009 I was not aware that Firehawk had a vertical drop! (of course, I also have a WoF shirt that bills Mamba as the tallest coaster in the midwest, and a CP shirt that features a Vekoma Boomerang!) Quote
IslandAddict Posted October 10, 2009 Posted October 10, 2009 Don't some people say that drops were "vertical drops?" I think I remember this from RCT 1 and 2. Like in the booklets. Not sure, though... Quote
KI FANATIC 37 Posted October 10, 2009 Posted October 10, 2009 Yeah because its says DB has 10 vertical drop and I know DB doesn't have any strait down drops. So I just think they mean drops. Quote
TombRaiderFTW Posted October 10, 2009 Posted October 10, 2009 And if any drop is a vertical drop, I can't help but wonder if there's such a thing as a horizontal drop... Or is that just called a turn? Quote
Dvo Posted October 10, 2009 Posted October 10, 2009 When I saw the topic title, I instantly thought of some shorts I saw at CP this year. They were really short shorts for girls, and they had writing on the backside. I saw three different pairs, but I can only remember two of them saying the following: 1. "Wild Ride" 2. "Get in Line" The third one was equally as provocative. Personally I thought it was hilarious. But that's probably because I don't have a daughter, haha. I would be ROYALLY ticked off if I had a daughter wearing shorts that said "get in line." Quote
CedarPointer Posted October 10, 2009 Author Posted October 10, 2009 I think the third one is "TOP THRILL". Quote
KingCobra Posted October 10, 2009 Posted October 10, 2009 There are also ones in the Maverick gift shop that say 'Saddle up' Quote
The Interpreter Posted October 10, 2009 Posted October 10, 2009 There was a time when patrons would not have been admitted wearing attire that is now sold by the parks themselves in their gift shops... Quote
CedarPointer Posted October 10, 2009 Author Posted October 10, 2009 I find it amazing how the same company that sells merchandise like that also hosts Christian music concerts. Quote
Dvo Posted October 11, 2009 Posted October 11, 2009 There are also ones in the Maverick gift shop that say 'Saddle up' That's the one I couldn't remember! Haha unbelievable. Quote
TheSonofBeast Posted October 11, 2009 Posted October 11, 2009 yeah, in fact they have a maverick outfit with those shorts in the queline that you see through glass while waiting in line... Quote
violakat03 Posted October 12, 2009 Posted October 12, 2009 I think one of the shirts I have (and love) is rather on the obscene side, but I busted out laughing when I saw it in the gift shop and had to have it. On the back it says "I'd rather ride a woodie." As for other interesting shirts, one that I first spotted at KI and have since seen at several other Cedar Fair and Six Flags parks says "Natural High" and shows a silhouette of Magnum. It just really bugs me to have a shirt with a coaster from a different park on it. There's also one that has random coaster terms on it like barrel roll, vertical loop, etc and has 'stratacoaster' as one of the terms. That bugs me too as there is only one stratacoaster in Cedar Fair parks and therefore it should not be on shirts at all their parks. I saw that shirt at KI, Michigan's Adventure and Kings Dominion. *steps off soapbox* Posted from my BlackBerry mobile device. Quote
Jasper Posted October 12, 2009 Posted October 12, 2009 One of the best shirts I have seen are the ones that say Bad (Donkey) Ride on them. I have always wanted to get one of those but just never took the time to get one. I do remember seeing those shorts you speak of at Cedar Point this year, highly provocative if you ask me. Quote
