I went to Six flags over texas in arlington last week, and I gotta say, Mr. Freeze was awesome!!!! Superman was fun too. It went up so high and you can see the whole park. It was really pretty. And while you're being distracted by the scenery it all of a sudden goes back down really fast. It was fuuuuun. :biggrin:
Anyone else here not get thrilled by rollercoasters? I've ridden on the fastest ones in the world, and after that, I just don't get thrilled anymore

And I am pretty sure you haven't been on the fastest coasters in the world (Voyage at HW isn't near fastest in the world).

Make a list of how many coasters you've been on. Indulge me, please. If there is one thing I am more smarter about than basketball, it's roller coasters.

Going to a few parks near you like Holiday World and Six Flags kentucky Kingdom, along with probably a few of the Florida parks is not going to all the major parks in the country. I know people that have ridden over 400 roller coasters (aka 40-60 different parks) and still havent been to a few major parks.
