Good heavens...
These people said, "Why won't you go on Zoomerang? Rampage has more headbanging!" Rampage has no headrests and it has lab bars.

I also hate when people say stuff like loopdy loop, spiral, i also just went to SFGAdv and this and me and my dad were waiting for the back seat and a lady came up and asked us if this was the line for the front? I just laughed and someone else told her that it was going the other way. ( the ride was Nitro, i think it is pretty easy to see which way it is going)

^ Hehehe. This one made me kinda ticked off. Some guy comes over to his wife and says, "$4 for a cheeseburger? You've gotta be kidding me." That part I was fine with. The next part made me kinda ticked. Then he says, "That plus some stupid 13 year old as the cashier." I look over and it's a girl at least 18. Plus the minimum working age in Alabama is 14. I don't think they would even let a 14 year old operate the cashier thing. So many people judge other people or are ignorant and it makes me kind of mad.

One funny one I heard was at Hershey Park
"I will never go on that"--some girl
"Oh, thats Storm Rider!!"--some dude
"No way, never, never, never!"--girl
"YOu know it launched you from 0-130 mph in 1 second!"--dude
"Your crazy if you ride that, theres like 7 loops!"--girl
LOL, this made me laugh so hard. It was so bad I was about to get coaster "nerdy" and correct them...lol

Have any of you ever corrected anyone? I never had, although I try not to let it bother me, it sometimes just does, and I come close to yelling at the poor dumb people.

Oh yeah, I correct my friends all the time. Sometimes they purposly say things like "Hey, they didn't finish that coaster" (Pointing at V2) to watch my reaction.

Haha, I have heard some wierd stuff. I even heard some crazy story about Deja Vu at SFOG from an ACE member in line. I proved him wrong cause he thought I was just some random non-coaster geek. When I proved him wrong, he shrugged and was murmered, "I'm in ACE and I don't even know that much."
It was pretty funny.
Now some other funny stuff I've heard.
By Ninja when they were painting it- "Hey look, they got a new ride."
In line for Superman- Guy one," Where did Viper go?" Guy two,"it launched too fast and the train fell off the track and they had to take it out."
The worst one- In line for Halfpipe at SFEG, there were two white trash women behind me and we had been in line for like 5 minutes and they had already made numerous stupid comments. Well, one of the women goes, "OH MY GOSH!!! IT GOES STRAIGHT UP!!!" As if she hadn't even peeked at the ride.
I tried to keep a straight face.

Oh I remember one. I went to PGA with these people and they were really nice people, but one of them said "Lets go on Stealth after this!" me"Ummmm, well, it's not really here anymore" This was the spring of 2005 and we had been in the park for a while and circled around it a few times, and he still thought it was there....lol

How can you not notice when a ride is gone???
I was watching something on TV that featured Thunderhead and they interviewed a lady that said something like, "Oh it's great! All the turns, flips, twists, and 100 foot drop is just fantastic."
She said it had flips. Weird.
