Craziest Thing You've Found?

Hi Employees,

What is the craziest thing you've found left over from a guest in the park?

I'm sure that there are common things left in the bins on the coasters, but I want to know something weird that a guest has left back for you to find!

When I was working on the go-karts in challenge park, a magnum crew member came over to retrieve a wooden leg from the gated fence area underneath the coaster.

I once knew a man with a wooden leg named Smith.

Really? What was the name of his other leg?

Wow... I guess it would be kind of hard to navigate through the park with 1 leg!

...do you guys find a lot of loose change? What happens to all of it at the end of the season?

I remember reading once that they donated all the change they found to charity. Or something like that.

CP does have a loose change fund that they give to a charity every year, just not sure which one or if its spread around.
I worked at Hot Potato there in the front of the park and out back door was right at the bottom of the raptor hill and we would find all sorts of things that would fall. Probably the craziest thing ever found was a nice marijuana cigaret that someone must have stashed away for later..I bet he was bummed later that day.

The question is -Did you have a better day afterwards? haha

when I was a Housing Sup. @ Cedars, we had to do "rounds" (I never understood why) and had to check bathrooms/showers (**shudder**)...and the boys always left presents on the shower floor as opposed to the toilet. This happened on a daily basis. Of course, there were other things...but that was probably the worst.

While sweeping, I would find A LOT of loose change, but we didn't keep it, we donated it (as previously stated).
As for larger sums of money, I found $44 over the course of the 2010 season. You are allowed to take larger sums of money to the lost and found, and make a claim on it. If ti is not claimed within a specific amount of time, you have the opportunity to claim it. I found a $20 the first day on the job! :D
One time a man dropped a few dollars ($4) from his pocket, while purchasing a top chill snow cone. I picked up the money, and attempted to get the man's attention. When I finally got him to turn around, before I had the opportunity to tell him he dropped $4, he said a very rude comment to me for yelling at him so much and briskly walked away. So I turned in the money to the lost and found instead of trailing after him.
One time I found a guy's air force ID. It looked really cool.

My friend found a plastic army man with a parachute, and with it was a list of places it has been. It's been to all different areas in the US. The employee took it back with them to their home country, which I believe was Ecuador. I think the army man was released from the top of the Millennium Force.

Working Raptor this summer, one of the funniest things we found was a pair of underwear in the queues!

One time a woman lost her wig on the ride...She complained enough and whatnot that we got the ok from supervision to lock out the ride and go in the low zones and look for it....Needless to say, we found the wig...embedded in the dirt hahaha

In 2010, I had a lady lose her weave on Mantis. It landed in the car behind her. She found it, picked it up and put it back on, without a second thought.

The only weird thing that I remember finding last year was a kids shoes stuffed with cheeseburgers from Johnny Rockets.

Oh wow yeah I forgot about articles in shoes....That's pretty bad, never had anything like that happen to me...Wow...drastic parents >_<

Last year we found one fake boob and Millennium found the other...the type that you put in your bra,not the surgical ones lol

Those cheeseburgers cost more than the shoes I bet.

Lmao how did you mark that on lost and found lmao

HAHAHA the cheeseburger one is hilarious. Was that at Raptor?

At Twister we found a thong with a pair of false teeth sitting right beside it in our front low zone.

at thunder canyon last year i had to clean the ques and i found a dirty tampon theres no way that just accidently fell :( gross

It could have fallen out :P looooooose hahahahahah
