I am sitting at work right now and listening to this conversation...

Woman - My family and I are going on vacation next week to Williamsburg
Man - Are you guys going to Busch Gardens too?
Woman - Yes, we are.
Man - Ya know how they have Kings Dominion in VA?
Woman - Yes
Man - Well they have Kings Dominion in Cali just it has a different name.
Woman - That is confusing, they should have just called them Kings Dominion East and Kings Dominion West.

I laughed out loud but they did not hear me.
I may not know everything about coasters... what I do know is they are my life...

Buy cool t-shirts here!!!

Reminds me exactly of my neighbor:
Neighbor: Did you ride that one roller coaster at Great America?
Me: Which one?
N: You know, that big orange one that drops you through a tunnel...it's at Great America near LA.
Me: Oh, you mean Six Flags Magic Mountain?
N: ...Yea, that place!

He also referred SFDK to also being Great America, thus CA having 3 different "Great America" parks he's made reference to.

When talking with friends the other night about all the cool coasters I get to ride on LeviaTHON and New Hotness, we were talking about SFGAdv at the time
Me: Kingda Ka, El Toro, Superman Ultimate Flight....
Brendan: Just don't say the 'M' one
Me: *racking my brain trying to figure out what coaster starts with M* There is no coaster at Great Adventure that starts with M, see *loads RCDB*
Brendan: Yes their is. Millennium Force.
Me *SLAP* That's at Cedar Point you idiot, your not even in the right state


Needless to say we were picking on him all night for that remark.

On a video of Dinosaur at WDW:
Jonathanperez10 wrote:they had this at the California disneyland. but they removed it for the Pirates of the Carribean ride. i loved this ride. i went on it when i was like 5 and i cried my @ss off. im 13 now.

I've seen some messed up chronology, but nowhere near this bad. How could a ride that opened in 1998 have been replaced by a ride that opened in 1967 (Which happened to be 8 years ago according to this kid)?

While working today I had someone come up to me, and we struck up a conversation about where we originated, when the guest found out I"ve been a Native Floridian my whole life she touched my elbow and goes "oh my god I finally touched one." Then giggled and walked away after paying.

I proceeded to laugh because I just went to the on site doctor today at work who told me I had bronchitis, so I've been coughing into my elbow to keep from spreading germs (as well as taking many other precautions of course) ... so much for that aspect.

During our weekly speeches, our topic was what we did over spring break.

Girl in class: I went to Great America (CGA) and rode Vortex.
Me: *thinks* okay, keep talking
...
Girl in class: And it went like 120 MILES PER HOUR!
Me: *tries not to strangle her*

I understand that GP don't know the facts about roller coasters, and may say some things wrong, but 120 mph is a huge exaggeration, and it really annoyed me.

Challenge me at Donkey Kong...I dare ya!

Not the worst muck up, but I think it deserves a mention. Yahoo did an article called "America's 5 Scariest Roller Coasters." The list goes:

1. Kingda Ka
2. El Toro
3. I305
4. Stratosphere Tower's Big Shot <-- ???
5. Superman: Krypton Coaster

But I think some of the comments are more worthy.
Kay: There's barely any rides from SIX FLAGS! This is Bull bleep!
Lindsey: the first two listed were from six flags great adventure....
Kay: They are still Six Flags...


Again, ???
