Silly Things that remind you of CP...

Like dj said, when I hit the hump in the road just around the corner from here at the right speed, the car rises and falls right at the perfect rate. I do it most mornings on the way to school. Best feeling ever. Also, the song Beat Me by Custom is known as my Cedar Point song.... I don't know why.

There are so many, but I can't seem to think of one right now.

When I hear the national anthem.

When I'm on an elevator. ( Power Tower )

There are several songs that make me think of CP. Hearing Love Shack brings back memories of Labor Day last season when I rode maXair 29 times. I think I heard that song at least 10 times that day. And then hearing Neil Diamond's They're Coming To America, that is kind of a tear-jerker memory for me. The perfect ending to my first opening day at CP. A group of us from TPOL had just got off MF after our awesome night ride, and right as we walked out of the photo booth the fireworks started, we all said good bye, went our seperate ways. I headed up to the Beach gate, and the speakers on the Aquatic Stadium were blaring They're Coming to America. Great memories...

Sorry for rambling on. It always happens when anyone asks about CP memories.

Whenever I see lumber lying around(anywhere) I think of Mean Streak and how rough it is, but it's in a positive way i guess.

When I'm in class and my teacher says to turn to page: 420, or 120, or 310 and so on. Also when the time is 4:20, or 1:20 so on... and 93 degrees out.

Same for me too, and when I notice I get really excited and start getting all happy.

And of course when I hear "Ready To Go" by Republica. . .you guys probably already know where that's going :)

Then when I'm walking up to Inta Juice (smoothie place) there is this strangest smell in the sewers, but the smell always reminds me of Cedar Point. It smells exactly like it -- when you walk in and your on the main midway. I get all happy then too.

It's funny what an amusement park can actually do to you. Cedar Point is one of the few reasons as to why I am living here today.

Well, gotta go change my siggy. Leaving for Cedar Point tomorrow!

Hmm...

Songwise, "Comin' To America", "Love Shack" and "Take On Me" are CP flashback inducers. That special fry oil they use always gets me, as well as that trademark Frontertown scent of creosote and wood.

I'm positive I'll think of more once I visit again. Saturday can't come soon enough...

EDIT: ^Did I call it or what? ;)

"Ready to Go", that weird techno music in Raptor's line, and even those page listings mentioned above.

As far as songs go we have our '05 theme song witch was " Anything but mine " by Kenny Chesney for the reason where it goes " In the morning I'm leaving making my way back to Cleveland...". And this year by Kenny again called " Sweet Summertime". I am also a big fan of the group Chicago and " Saturday in the park" reminds me of CP as well as someone previously wrote.

There are so many strange things that make me think of Cedar Point. When I turn on my shower in the morning, it sounds like the LIMs on Wicked Twister. On opening day, I had to take the SAT. My plan was to stop home and go straight to Cedar Point afterwards. The funny thing was, one of the math questions asked "If segment CP is this long...". When I come home from work, there is a turn that is banked slightly, which reminds me of Cedar Point when I drive around that turn. Also, the brakes on my car squeak sometimes. It reminds me of Mean Streak every single time. Then there are always the random occasions when something sounds exactly like a chain lift.

You can get it on The Rollercoasters of Cedar Point DVD, but that's the only location I can find it. I've searched before too, and came up with nothing.

Anyways, back on topic. That one song "They're coming to take me away haha!" always reminds me of Halloweekends. It makes me smile everytime.

It used to be Funkytown (I swear, the Gemini Midway speakers had that on a constant loop), but lately it's whenever I see hear talk of construction or see some that look similar to the CP stuff.

Oh and rain, too. My first experience in a long time of being in the rain all day was my first Point trip, and now whenever I start to feel that dampness on my clothing it reminds me of that day.

There's a ton more (hearing Ready to Go etc) but those are the prominent ones now.

they are doing road construction by my house and it smells like the train. it also is bumpy and has a little dip that gets me every time... man i love it!

When I see a pile of dirt, because remember the topic about the dirt piles on MF island here and all the stuff people thought they could be for. I never thought that a dirt pile could create so much commotion. Now when I see them around my town I just grin and think of the people on here and CP. (The same things can be said about the topic about the fence by WT)

My CP song would have to be perfect day. I remember hearing it (for the first time) in the morning in line for MF and just saying it for the rest of the day.

Also there is a road right next to a golf course where I live that gives great air. Just imagine the end of the Magnum because that is just what it is like. The speed limit is 35 but it feels a lot better when your going 55 and put your hands up. And on any road I always have the urge to stick my hands out the window or thru the sun roof and see how fast I'm going and compare the speed to a speed of a coaster at CP. Yup, I'm crazy.

I have another one, an even better one. I was at work today (I make pizza in a wood burning oven) and it was time to empty out the old ashes. There were still some warm embers mixed in and when I scooped them into the metal box it smelled exactly like the train. I actually stood outside and smelled the box for a while lol.

As strange as this might sound... I have always felt that Cedar Point has a very distinct smell. Once in a while I have been able have this same sense of being there when I wasn't.

Ready to go, funkytown, and fun fun fun are the main songs that remind me of CP. There is also a hill nearby our house that gets me sometimes. Oh, and my room, haha (its full of CP Memoribilla[sp?]).
