- There are about 2200 trash recepticles on the Peninsula not counting the recepticles at the off point employee housing.

I wonder how I got to know that one.... ;)

Knute Rockne developed the forward pass as a lifeguard on the CP beach.  CP likes to tout this but who really cares?

The employees at Cedarpoint that do the trash picking up around the park, each picks up 2,000 buds of smoke buds through out the day.

Probably the blurb that I got from Old Timer Tim that the park used to "rent" swimsuits.

YUCK!

The coldest water fountains on the penisuala available to the public are in the Park Ops office and on the Eastern end of Disaster Refreshements, near the DT exit.

No, it wasn't the Spirit of St. Louis but an aircraft did fly from Cleveland to the CP Beach which, at the time, was the longest flight on record.

I thought it was just the longest flight over water but I may be mistaken.

Yeah Bradwag, you are right.  I should have been a little more specific.

If you are walking from the Gemini exit to the Mine Ride and you hear a telephone ring as you pass the restroom building, you should pick up your pace significantly if you don't want to wait for the train. :)

I count 73 Arrow Runaway Train coaster cars. 25 on Mine Ride, 30 on Gemini, and 18 on Magnum XL-200.

Wow... never thought about it that way. Do you know to what degree parts are interchangeable? Aside from wheel size, Gemini and Magnum cars seem to be fairly similar.
