I think I might have had saw Ouimet in the park.

I was on the park on Saturday and was getting a corn dog before I left, and I think I saw Ouimet and two other business men. They were wearing suits. Do they come to the park a lot to observe. I was going to say hi but I thought it would be too awkward.

I think I saw John today when I was coming into the park.

Really? What was he doing? Do you think Ouinet and Hildebrandt (Sorry I don't know how to spell it.) ride the roller coasters like MF and TTD? What if they made an account on here! I wonder if they have a undercover account?

Well I downgraded to just a season pass this year so we didn't get early entry so we had to wait at the game things until 10 when the park opened. John was just standing there talking to some other workers, nothing big. I don't know if he watches the gates open everyday, I just found it interesting that he has enough time to stand there and greet guests as the gates open.

If they were wearing suits. I doubt it was Matt.

Just based on my personal observations.

Lower execs who want to become the next Matt?

Did you think it was a rare thing to see him in the park? His office is almost right in the middle of the park so it is not that rare at all that he would be out walking around. He has stated that he encourages his executives to get out of the office and walk around the parks, which is probably what you saw going on.

You'd be surprised at how many guests will wear a suit in the park.


11 years.

Don Miears always wore a suit. He was GM until the end of 2000.

I think it would be excellent if I was in a group that encountered the CEO on a roller coaster. That way I could say, "We me Ouimet! Wee!"

12 posts, and we're still no closer to finding out if he likes pancakes or not.


Goodbye MrScott

John

This must be awkward if he's reading this forum. Do they go on Pointbuzz a lot?

I bet they come on here and spread rumors about new attractions!

...it's not like they aren't extremely busy people or anything.

They probably run around the park spray painting random markers, just waiting for people to freak out on here. ;)

No, that's what I do. :)

I'm still trying to decipher the title. "I think I might have had saw?" WTF does that even mean?

I think I might have had a saw but if I'm not mistaken, my neighbor borrowed it and did not return it.

Back to the issue at hand though, I've never found a park GM to be "bothered" by someone stopping them to say hello unless they were engaged in conversation (in person or on the phone) or if they were obviously in a hurry to get somewhere.

If they wanted to walk around the park going unnoticed it would not be hard to do.
