The one were he leaves his yellow T-bar up a bit Is what I thought. There is nothing wrong with a little airtime, or at least there was before, well you know. I'm sure Ghostrider is up there too.

According to a article(I do not know if the article is PRE- Force) talking about him... his favorite ride is Magnum... but it also says that he is afraid of heights...

In the "World's Biggest Amusement Park" I thought he said something around, "When we built the Magnum XL-200, I didn't think we would ever be able to top it, but this ride [Millennium Force] has truly done that." I think we may have said it was his favorite, but I'm not sure.

It says in the article from the Plain Dealer on August 12th, 2001, "The $25-million Millennium, which debuted last year, is right up there. But for sentimental reasons, the Magnum XL-200 is his favorite."

Yes indeed - even Mr. Kinzel admits that Magnum is the better ride! :)  I know it was written before MF was built, so who knows, but in the book "Cedar Point: Queen of American Watering Places" he said the following.

"My favorite modern-day memory is the opening of the Magnum XL-200 roller coaster in 1989."

I would beg to differ that ST is his favorite woody since Michigan Adventure has only been part of Cedar Fair for a couple months. I would say he likes Blue Streak up there on his list of favorite woodies.
P.S. I want his job when he retires! I would love to get payed $2.8 million (http://biz.yahoo.com/p/f/fun.html) to work at the best parks in the world!
