Oh my God! I just had to come back here after seeing Dan on the TV. I was like OMG is that Dan, the Magnum lover? OMG it is! So it's me. I am back. OnRide Pic Freak!
Oh and I haven't been to CP yet but this was my overall count and what was in my signature before I left:
Went FULL FORCE 141 times
Conquered the Magnum 2069 times
Kicked the sky 622 times
OMG I still have this stupid little notebook with a vertical line down everytime I rode Magnum. That is a total shame. I need a life lol. Pages are FILLED. Each horizontal line, I put in vertical pen stripes 25 times so I could count them easier. I did that for Magnum, Raptor and MF. Didn't do it for the others. I rode those a nice bunch of times too. But not TOO many because I was concentrating on mostly MF and Mag laps.

i taped that show it was sooooooo cool
Great show, Dan! I didn't think Dan screamed like a girl, he was (like what every coaster enthusiast seems to do) giving a "shout out" to the coaster gods for giving him the chance again to ride such a great coaster! Ever noticed that everyone gives the same scream on those play-by-plays on the way down the first hill?

I saw the show last night as well - nice job, Dan! And, BTW, I bought the same shirt last week when I was at Cedar Point as Magnum was my favorite ride!
How did you get the opportunity to participate in the show?

Probably not.. I heard on the news they gave up trying to grease the sides of his head to get him into the computer room and are looking at the possibility of removing several load-bearing walls to allow access. ;)
