    Do we have any Roller Coaster Fans here??????

    I ask this because I am taking the family to Kings Island tomorrow. I can't wait.!! Kings Island isn't as good as Cedar Point but I got 5 tickets with a meal at $5 each. Regular price is $42.95 or so just to get in.

    www.pki.com is the web addy for Kings Island.
    www.cedarpoint.com is for Cedar Point.

    We have plans for a Cedar Point trip and another Cheap Kings Island trip ( Thanks Sis!! ).

    Cedar Point is the Roller Coaster capital of the World. 13 or so coaster and the one takes you 410ft high @ 120mph. Now that is a coaster!!

    Thanks

    im a big fan of them, although the last time i rode one everyone kept screaming, "faster" and "let it go longer"...and there wasnt really a line for the ride, so the controller guy did what they wanted.....ugh....worst roler coaster ride ever, i couldnt even walk straight when i got off, not to mention my balls were in my throat
    Give me no lip and I tell you no lie.

    -TF 05' , And cant wait till 06!

    I LOVE roller coasters. I went to Disney World in FL a couple of summers ago and they have some great ones. One drops at a 90% grade (100% is vertical :shock: ) Has anyone been to Bush Gardens in Williamsburg?? I love the new Alpengeist. Its the hang-down kind. Roller coasters are one of the best inventions of all time. :-P
