Did we mention how insanely smooth Dare Devil Dive is??? Thumbs up from Robb! Water challenge contestants will be playing for Dare Devil Dive wheels.

Hhappy Posted September 17, 2011 Author Share Posted September 17, 2011 (edited) Wow, I want a job as a water dummy! A little bit of B&M love during ERT! There might be a lot of "clones" of Batman out there, but it's still a really awesome ride! Here's one for the lift hill enthusiasts! Thumbs UP for a good "old school" B&M! NERD!!! It's time for our favorite coaster in the park! Well, KidTums' at least! It's pretty good for a "kiddie coaster." Still plenty of excellent ad space available next to the men's restroom. Sorry Chuck, no more ERT for you! More Schwarzkopf love! Yay! El Toro... ... For kids! Happy to be here! Thank you Six Flags! This is one PACKED FULL AWESOME day! Random TPR group photo!

robbalvey Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 (edited) More photos... Backstage tours are mainly so we can get awesome coaster porn photos that you can't get from inside the park! Yup, we are all nerds! We covered almost the entire park! This is my new #1 diesel tank. Views of Superman that you can't get as a normal guest! Entering the employee areas of the park. NOTED!!! Congrats on your star, Brianna! Yup, more nerds! We really did get some awesome views on this tour! Can't get these shots anywhere else. Hooray for Schwarzkopf! Mindbender might be one of the oldest coasters in the park, but it's still one of the most popular! Thank you Six Flags Over Georgia for an awesome backstage tour!

crazydaveh Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 This is just awesome! The Mindbender was my first looping and the GASM was my first woodie! No Mine Train backstage awesomeness yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

printersdevil78 Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Awesome photos of what sounds like a great event! Two specific thoughts: 1. The Monster Mansion backstage tour rivals anything I've ever gotten to do on a TPR trip. Very jealous that I missed it, but very grateful for the photos. Thanks! 2. What is Brandy doing enjoying thrilling theme park rides? She should be in the kitchen making tasty snacks and then posting about them on here. I call shenanigans!

mattguyver Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 (edited) This was my first TPR trip, and most certainly not my last. Words can not describe how much fun I've had today!!!

SteelFusion Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 What a fantastic day. Water Challenge and crazy Goliath ERT was the perfect way to cap things off! Thanks so much to everyone for putting on this great event! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tuxedomask5432 Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Thanks to Robb, Elisa, and Brad with Six Flags for setting everything up for us today! This was my first TPR event, and it did not disappoint. I loved the water cup challenge, even though not a drop remained in my cup. I loved night ERT on Goliath, and GASM was running better than ever this evening! I'm so happy to meet new friends including Rebecca, Jonathan, and David. Can't wait for more fun next time.

CoasterWeasel Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Thank you to everyone that made this event possible. What an amazing day all around. Ert on DDD in the morning was amazing and 6 times in a row, not getting off and being the last train dispatched on Goliath was incredible.Can't forget about the water challenge on GASM even though by the second hill I didn't have a cup. I have never felt better leaving a park in my life. Can't wait till I can do another Bash and maybe someday a whole TPR trip. Thanks again to everyone at SFOG and at TPR that made this event so memorable!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 (edited) More photos.... Do any other Six Flags park have this??? Post if you've seen this anywhere else! Doin' it Freestyle! Solo coaster geek. Backstage of Superman! Hooray! Coaster porn! Just taking a little nap. Adam wasn't invited to the group nap. Awesome Goliath photo ops on the backstage tour. Boob credit! Six Flags has large rodent issues. Cedar Fair may have the most trash cans...but Six Flags has them beat on variety! We have proof! "...Well, at least it's not Duffy on a stick!" Rough, but still awesome! Visit Fright Fest and get the Texas Giant credit! That's a pretty awesome Deep South Bash schedule! The best ERT, I mean EBT at Deep South Bash! TPR loves EBT! Thank you to our good friend Rhonda Holland for helping us with Deep South Bash! EBT should make TPR Quest more entertaining! "Hi Candace!" One of these guys is clearly gay. Which one? Answer now! Even Derek took a break from Exclusive Beer Time for Exclusive Pie Time! Our 2011 Deep South Bash TPR Quest contestants! Robb will call out an item...and you guys have to go get it from the audience...and sometimes that item might be someone from the audience! This is quite the prize table of loot to be playing for! Is that a Mindbender lapbar and a Deja Vu restraint I see??? "Bring me someone's onride photo!" TPR Quest means crazy games such as the human wheelbarrow game! These guys really want to win! Dude! This is "human wheelbarrow", not "human caveman drags some chick across the ground!" "I want TWO belts from the audience!" Quick! Everybody whip Andrew with your belt! Show me your theme park related tattoo! This guy sings Bohemian Rhapsody better than Freddy Mercury! And here are the top 5 winners! Andrew "swimace" takes the TPR Quest Crown! He won the Deja Vu restraint! This is why Brazil's has yet to be built... SFOG still has all of Deja Vu's parts. Here are the official TPR Quest results. Brad gave out Deep South Bash goodie bags for all of out attendees! We even had these awesome "Dare Devil Dive" executive pens to give out as prizes! Derek says last call for EBT! (I love that the park made us a sign for EBT!!!) TPR loves EBT! Edited June 5, 2013 by ernierocker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 (edited) And the final batch of photos... Night time ERT is about to begin! The highlight of tonight's ERT is the TPR Water Challenge! Everyone have full cups and ready for the water challenge? The GASM Water Challenge has begun! Not a single drop of water in the cups returned!!! The Water Challenge has spilled out into the walkways! "We need a better strategy!" Yup, TPR members out on the ride...getting very wet! Garbles thinks he's got a plan to win. Everyone combines their water to determine how much the team collected. And there was a bit of a water flight in the station as well! The ride seemed to be running better, the wetter it got! Big Mike loves his wet girls! This is not going to end well for you guys. Watch out for this man...those 8 cups of water aren't to play the challenge... They are for the riders! Poor Team Garbles! You guys look VERY WET! What happened Garbles? Oh, yeah! We also had night ERT on Superman! Assume the position! Let's give some nighttime ERT love to Dare Devil Dive! Ran even better at night! That blur is happy TPR members! LOVE IT !!! Did we mention Canyon Blaster ERT? We have every coaster in the park for ERT....and Acrophobia! Good luck guys! (and I do mean the guys!) "Please do not let this ride take my virginity away!!!" This is one ride that legitimately scares me! The official Acrophobia face! And finally, ERT was closed out with Goliath! Awesome ERT!!!! No lines! No waiting!!! And it was pretty dark up there. Robb takes his final ride of the night! Do you guys want to ride ONE MORE TIME??? Check out this awesome video from the LAST RIDE of the night on Goliath! The TPR Water Challenge winners were announced! It was Team Garbles that took the lead. As you can see, everyone else supports their winning. We had an awesome turn out of die-hards that lasted the entire night!!! Thank you to everyone at Six Flags for putting on an amazing event!!! And thank you to our nearly 200 TPR members who turned out for the event...and to everyone who submitted photos throughout the day. You guys are AWESOME!!! Now... POST YOUR COMMENTS!!!

XII Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 This guy sings Bohemian Rhapsody better than Freddy Mercury! But does he sing Bohemian Rhapsody better than Mike Austin? Anyways, Deep South Bash looks awesome. Really wish I could've gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
