Opening Day Weekend (hell on earth as we know it)

Got my platinum pass re-issued. It costs $10 at MIA compared to $15 at CP.
Im going to contact the manager in parking and see if I can fax her a copy of my platinum pass, the parking receipt and get refunded.

Jugga - how does the back pocket work on Magnum? You spend half the time out of the seat! :)

Yeah Juggalotus's idea is straight up retarded :)

I assure you we can put a test wallet in my back pocket and I bet you anything by the end of the day, if not 2-3 rides on TTD or Magnum won't make it fall out.

I am most retarded though because I LOST MY WALLET WITH ZIPPERED POCKETS. You literally have to be drooling level retarded to lose it with zippered pockets right?

I dunno, 3 rides on Magnum, 1 on TTD, 1 on Raptor, 1 on MS, 1 on MF, 1 on DT and 1 on Corkscrew and I still have my wallet. It enjoyed the entire day in my back pocket and never once even tried to peek out.

^It depends on what kind of wallet you carry, if you carry a Costanza sized wallet that stretches the seams of your pocket, of course its going to stay in, however if you keep your wallet thin, its more apt to fall out.

Frankly my wallet is huge and it all depends on the shorts / pants. But still my wallet fell out.

CP and MIA both told me I am stuck with this $10 parking fee. Boo hiss on them for that.

Was the pocket zipped? :)

Who knows, but all I know is the wallet is gone.

Gee, suddenly I remember...

When I was a really young kid in the 1970's, back in the days before anybody had ever heard of cargo shorts, I had shorts that were ideally suited to Cedar Point. The left pocket had a snap flap, the right pocket had a zipper, and the zipper pull had a little ring on the end of it. And for reasons completely unknown, there was a little snap hook attached to a front belt loop. So anything important (typically cash, penknife, and writing implement) went into the zippered pocket, which was then secured by attaching the zipper pull to the snap hook.

No points for fashion (but who cares, I might have been 9...) but I never lost anything! :)

My attitude has semi-recovered now that we have new card's being issued, my car is heading in to the shop tomorrow (tracked down the same bumper,etc) and I have time to cool off from....this weekend.

But I am a tough critic still....

Cedar Point does look like they do an awesome job recovering lost items. But most items seem to be very easy to find items. Black / brown leather wallets don't stick out like them easy to find pink razr's.

Plain and simple, zippered coat or not

This North Face bionic all weather zippered jacket failed me. Or I failed it....anyways. DO NOT RELY ON YOUR POCKETS.

Use the lockers, bring a debt card, photo I.D., and platinum pass and call it good.
