I'm with ForgottenEE. There's something about the smell from the CP&LE ... and the sound. I think the train itself is central to the Cedar Point atmosphere.

Walking through the Main Entrance gates wouldn't be the same without the continual sound of Demon Drop cars slamming through its break run.

Smoking Marijuana isn't a bad thing or even a good one, like everything else, its what you make of it.

There are 5 senses...

1) Sight: Top Thrill Dragster from almost anywhere in the park & Looking down from the top of a lift hill right before you dropppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp!!!!!!!

2) Smell: Smelling the sunblock that is on your face & the lake water through out the park.

3) Sound: Power Tower launches & "Enjoy your day at America's Rockin' Rollercoast Cedar Point"

4) Taste: Chilli Cheese Fries from Dragon's Inn

5) Touch: Grabbing the lapbar on any of my favorite 16 coasters until you reach the "drop zone" and then it's the feel of the air pressure on your hands as they go up in the air over your head.

Smell: The smell of all the wood on Mean Streak.
