Cell phones on rides

[Tanna]

I don't carry my phone, but that man I married does.

 

I'm interested in this Coaster Gear. I have thrown possession issues, even if it's someone else's.

I found Coaster Gear at Cp in more than one gift shop, I believe KI also has it in theirs. Mine is a shallow fanny pack I presume made for Ceder Fair the wife's is more of a pouch with strap. My first one lasted 10 yrs and 5 different parks until the zipper broke and I had to replace it.

I just use cargo shorts, I can fit my pass, phone, money, and half the state of Texas in them without having to worry about stuff falling out. The only thing I have had fly out on me was a park map but that was because I put it in my hoodie pocket. I don't believe I have been to a park in the last 2 seasons without a pair.

Can't go to a single amusement park without cargo shorts! It should be a law. Cargo shorts are the best way to go if you want to keep your stuff safe and secure.

And what, pray tell, is wrong with cargo pants?

Just don't try to show up at BGW's Boo Fest as a male wearing a kilt:

My wife buys these for me specifically for the parks.  When at Cedar Point this year, I got a nice pair of cargo pants that are my park pants in the fall.  They are a nice khaki color, so I will often wear them to work and then right on to the park.

In April or October, nothing whatsoever. Though I personally would not attempt to wear cargo pants to a park in, say, July.

I've been known to wear a three piece suit to a park in August...and I last wore shorts when I was in junior high school.

Can't bash you for that one. I've been known to do so myself, as one Thrill_Biscuit can attest to.

I hear it mostly on WindSeeker, I hate it when people have their phones out and they have to come over the pa and interrupt the music that makes WindSeeker what it is. My dad has a holster for his phone and he pulls his shirt down over it when we get in line, it has never caused a problem. Also, you can just get a locker by Banshee for 1$ an hour

  It has never caused a problem, doesn't mean it never will. The lockers, a zippered or deep pocket, are really the safest choices both for the device, and other passengers or persons on the ground. And by deep pocket, I mean one that will allow the phone to sit on your thigh, beneath the bend at your hips in a sitting position. Not a real issue on WindSeeker, but something like Banshee, it could be. 

  Not trying to preach, just an observation. Anything made by man, has a potential to fail.

Things made by women, on the other hand....
