Last Seats of the Season Contest

Do you like pancakes?

Last year on Dragster was indeed pretty crazy. I mean I love Dragster as everyone knows, but to make that much of a deal out of the last train and act like a child in front of police is just over the top. I mean if it happens it happens, if it doesnt then tough luck. I try to get last train but I cant help the amount of people that are in the station. And if it doesnt happen, then it just wasnt meant to be.

I'll say that I'm feeling pretty lucky this year however.:)

How bad was the fight?

I think this would be awesome youtube footage, a bunch of coaster geeks getting a hissy fit.

I think it would be awesome to have that small of a line to just walk in front of people.

If your on the last TTD, MF, or Maverick train it is not like champagne falls from the sky and there is a 5 star dinner waiting for you.

We were on the 3rd last train last day of 06. We weren't trying to be the last, just lucky to make it back in line for one more ride. Some people in line were not getting on the trains in our launch cycle and there was a little hold up as the ride ops announced that no train would be launched unless full. Some on our train began to yell to the rest to just get on and ride. She was down for a short time and all we wanted was one last ride, we didn't give a hoot if it was the last train or not. It was a great end to our season!!

I hate the off season!!!:(

Who'll be with me when I attempt to get THE last batch of pancakes at the Friday's breakfast buffet on closing day?

Count me out, I'm not into the old and crusty.

I wish it was this easy for the FIRST ride... lol

I was on the front of that train... hahaha

O the drama. I was laughing at them to be honest. When you do ALL that for a last ride, you look even sadder then you already do.

Considering Fridays didn't have a breakfast buffet this year, so the pancakes would have to be from LAST year...I think I'll pass ;)

WHAT?? No breakfast buffet????

One question: If I run with my golden ticket and fall down, will I have to say "AHHH.......sssssss" over and over and over again? ;)

Best Family Guy ever. This thread is the best at making me laugh. Good thing I wasnt drinking anything this time.

Okay, serious question here. How is this contest fair to deaf riders? I imagine the staff that will wearing the Golden Tickets don't know how to say the phrase in sign language. Most deaf people can read and understand the rules for riding (which is required by law in order to ride). I just posted this question on the blog and would be interested in their response. Anyone have any ideas?

I'm pretty sure if someone came up to an employee with a golden ticket and signed something to them, they'd work it out.

TTD4Life,

Thanks for riding with us! The rest of our party headed home as we patiently waited for CP to get TTD back up and running even though there were very few trains left to go. Kudos to CP for an awesome end to 2006 season! This year will be an MF marathon with my <52 inch buddy on the last day!

Did I say that I hate the off season yet? I do!! :)

Wow I can't wait til next sunday to GET the goldne ticket!!! ;)
