Terry's Midwest Trip TR


Recommended Posts

Well here goes my first TR, which is documenting my Midwest trip. This TR is coaster-lite, but I'm sure you'll get plenty of people snapping more than enough pictures of the coasters! Before I start though let's get a few ground rules out of the way:

 

1) No complaining! Take what I give ya!

 

2) No requests to see more people or certain people! Take what I give ya.

 

3) No asking about when the next update will be... you know the rest.

 

Let's start off with Kentucky Kingdom for starters. Since I'm working off the internet connection on my phone, I'm going to split it up in a few parts.

 

Like I said in the official Midwest thread, Six Flags really pulled out the red carpet for us and there was quite a collection of coasters for us to ride during ERT. Of course I saw other things to distract me...

But this is. On that note, it's off to Beech Bend...

This is not Sharktums approved...

Huh?

Look out GQ! Where's our modeling contract?

Yeah, this is being counted as a credit! Had to do something while waiting for Deluge to open!

Missed credits... couldn't run into unauthorized areas no matter how much I was egged on!

S-t-r-e-t-c-h!!!

Another favorite was the starburst signs! David demonstrates his flexibility, no comment on what the rest are doing!

The rest of the "Rough Riders" had to get their credit in too. Jenn, don't feed the bears!

Hmmm... looks like he liked it.

Terry you are so funny! I am sitting here wracking my brain trying to think of statues you can, um, enjoy when you get here to KI on Sunday.

 

In Nick Universe, there is a statue of Patrick (from SpongeBob). I am pretty sure he's a perfect vict... I mean credit! I can't think of any others right now.... But I am sure if they are there, you and the Rough Riders will find them!

Yeah yeah, I said Beech Bend was next, but since there weren't many credits to be found I'll give ya a few more Kentucky Kingdom pics to get out!

 

Edit: The hotel wifi is raunchy! I just lost my uploaded photos when the connection aborted. Back to uploading pics with my phone! Guess I'll do it later today! Here's two... I'll add more later!

Well I'm back from finishing up Cedar Point where:

 

1) I finished all the coaster credits

 

2) Found a gold mine of statue credits!

 

3) Got felt up by some underaged fast-a$$ed girl. "Oooh you're so buff!" she said while squeezing on my biceps. Oh my!

 

4) Shot a little video of me on Cedar Downs (the horse race ride)

 

Anyway, let's see if I can finish up kentucky Kingdom and Beech Bend:

FakePalmTree.thumb.jpg.34db70a7b3bc8740ce7db413fe5ba00d.jpg

Finally the last credit--yeah we're gonna make the fake palm tree in the water park a credit. You know they don't have these in Kentucky! Next it's on to Indiana Beach!

Ladies this is what happens when you use that cheap horse hair and glue for your weave and try to ride an out of control coaster. I bet she had to leave early because she was probably bald!

ReversePose.jpg.0296d76cbc642fd7b0f32793b8693f53.jpg

A reverse pose for you. Sheesh! I need to work on the flexibility. I lost it when I benched 300lbs!

ScottPoses.jpg.2e38df10f1b667c3726a7981a292c448.jpg

Scott shows Gary how to pose for a pic while in line for Kentucky Rumbler.

DeathChariot.jpg.95bbcfb6ee0563f040ebac4f2db5b6c3.jpg

Surprisingly enough, this wasn't the death chariot I though it would be. Chang actually judo chopped me in my head!

SceneOfMyFirstPOV.jpg.baaa841723930fae6d8369b15730e681.jpg

This is the scene of my first POV. I'll need to convert it to a Windows media file since I only have my Powerbook with me... Robb, can we post mp4s? ;) Anyway, I'll post this crazy POV soon!

GhoulCredit.jpg.953123b3f0deb78607d8ff458b529dab.jpg

First credit of the park! The supervisor told Gary "Well don't kiss it!"

DontTheyLookPurty.jpg.b8e322b24eb03bca2cd2d663cd316ce1.jpg

The only comment we got from the haunted house is that is was air conditioned! David and Gary go in to get out of the hot sun... and the ride op was so helpful he let them fasten themselves in!

PressureCooker.jpg.f688d374c5cf46a3733f6544ad148763.jpg

The "Pressure Cooker". Ride it and see what I mean. I don't do "Spins and pukes", but they said you could fry an egg in there.

WelcomeBeechBend.jpg.a2e58f7299b9ed0ebcc4c5339524083d.jpg

Next up, if you couldn't tell is Beech Bend. At first I thought I wouldn't like it, but I really did!

MyStarburstNo2.thumb.jpg.ba4435914bf4875d13ab00752587dd76.jpg

My starburst posed turned into flexing! My... I've been working the shoulders out... making David's bus ride hell with my shoulders in his seat!

ArghFishies.jpg.2f9bf39335a33cf19283152bf98fbf29.jpg

Help!!! Attack of the fishies!

Take my picture of taking your picture...

BearConverted.thumb.jpg.42b7ed2fad9fb3fcd31848253718bf4a.jpg

The bear decided to switch to the other team. Guess we turned him out!

ThatsNotThePose.jpg.b25872925d9072329e17aeb0971ae6ae.jpg

That's not the pose!

We'll let me post my indiana beach update little by little in this post, because the internet is crap once again...

 

Edit: Part 1 is done... I would have gotten done quicker if the internet was better! Oh well!

NotOneOfTheRides.thumb.jpg.0aaaf1fca99d430849215f930c7863ed.jpg

Thank goodness this isn't one of the rides... I think anything that is manual labor isn't a ride! Stroke! Stroke!

Welcome.jpg.240a230abd7f0d4d9178b509b84b6d85.jpg

Let's not forget the obligatory welcome sign pic that everyone will post to make sure where you are!

WheresWaldo.jpg.424fb0d8a482c4e69ad07609c64e5d19.jpg

It took a while to get on anything... why... well let's play "Where's Wald...err... Jenn and Scott?" Collecting their smoking credit...

Bathhouseonmap.jpg.a80e77b35bf364356733372b5b9c96cf.jpg

A map of the park. Don't ya love it when they point out the location of the bath house for the kinky kids! It's something for everyone!

PoochingInTheRain.jpg.37f9ebf8fa9e86d73858faadd78fd24c.jpg

Looking fabulous in the rain...

Last pic for now before I run to pack! Don't want to be left by the bus! We went to dinner and I found my credit of the day! Gotcha!!! Poor guy!

Great TR, can not wait to see the rest of it. Hmmm, I wonder if you found the Snoopy statues at CP?

 

Let's just say I found the snoopy store... I scared a few parents while I took a few pictures. One asked "Can I take that for you?"
