Top Ten Signs you go to Cedar Point too much
Similar thread on the MF side I know....
10- You know CPs zip code by heart (44870) from checking CPs weather forecast online
9- You are always proud of your ride induced whiplash and even brag about it to total strangers
8- You reconize EVERY cow on the way to CP and worry when you dont see it
7- You've got www.cedarpoint.com & www.guidetothepoint.com as 2 of your top "favorites" on AOL
6- One word: tattoos (nuf said)
7- When someone asks "whats your point?" You ALWAYS have to reply "Cedar Point"
6- The word "Banshee" never even existed in your vocabulary til 1996
5- You swear the sound of wind thru trees in the winter time sounds JUST like Raptor
4- You get personally escorted the the front car
3- You dread "Roller Coaster Withdrawal" worse than the flu
2- You actually DREAM of riding Raptor or MF
(my favorite riding bud always with me-hey Matt!)
1- WHICH CP shirt you should wear is a decision you dread-could take hours!!

If the Yankees are all that then they should have SWEPT the Mets and won by MORE than 1 & 2 runs.
The Yankees prove that $$ can indeed buy championships (sorry-just alittle personal comment there!-PO'd Mets fan thats all)

Done 4, 3, 2,1.
How about some of these:
R- You’re getting friends and family as addicted as you
S- You make more trips in a season than most people make in a lifetime
T- “Forced.mp3” and “MFTheme.mp3” are frequently used desktop shortcuts
U- You have nightmares about ruining your CP Gear in the washing machine
V- When you take a friend to the park who wonders “how deep is the Space Spiral anchored in to the ground” you answer “thirty feet”
W- You know the spiel for virtually every ride in the park
X- Ride hosts on multiple rides know you by name
Y- You work bonus weekends to take the edge off of closing day
Z- Walking past the window by the secretary’s desk you have an uncontrollable urge to bang the glass twice with the heal of your palm (and expect the same in response)

Not to be picky, but wouldn't "The word "Banshee" never even existed in your vocabulary til 1998" actually would have happened in 1996?
I've also done 10 amd 7.
I've got another one, Everytime you hear Love Shack, you can faintly hear the rumbling of a Mantis train in the background.

The wind IS Mantis and Raptor.
Any time you hear a truck downshift or backfire, you're sure it is coaster airbrakes.
Snoring reminds you of Magnum & Gemini's lift sounds.
You have the layout of every coaster memorized.
You have built every coaster on RCT
You cry on closing day
On the morning after Opening day, you are already dreading closing day.
You know the order of the songs played on Mantis
You can tell by the ops how fast the line will move.
(Meaning you know what ops are fast)
You worry that you don't have enough Mean Streak shirts
You REALLY worry you dont have enough MF garb.
You make as many offseason drivebys as visits.

CP Bound-My bad with the Banshee date-PT was '98
Mantis was '96--oops!
I fixed it-thanks for catching it!

Welcome back Raptor riders-how was your flight??
Whenever you're at another park, you refer to the rides as "wannabes". (ANY standup coaster is a Mantis wannabe, ANY suspended coaster is a Raptor wannabe, etc.) Plus, you spend all your time in line telling other riders about Cedar Point and how much better the rides, food, restrooms, employees, and ATMOSPHERE are at the Point. I was at Six Flags over Georgia on the 22nd and was SO depressed. The "Georgia Scorcher" was nothing but a wet match, the "Batman" ride was dead, and the restrooms were FILTHY! The food sucked, and none of the rides had an intro. They just buckled you in and out you went. After my first season of Cedar Point, nothing else compares!! Oh well...

The Love Shack Thing Really Fits Me! I always think of Mantis when I hear that song! Oh....The Memories......
11. You know how far you are from the park by the land marks.
10. When you tell everyone what rides are where in the park while crossing the Sandusky Bay
9. When you prefer route 2 over the turnpike just to see the rides while crossins the SB
8. When you have contests to see who can be the first to see the park from ascross SB
7. When you have riden every seat in every train on every ride
6. It insn't raining too hard unless it's enough to close the Raptor
5. When you wear the Sandusky hardoo (from a TV ad several years ago
4. When you drive 93 down the interstate to go as fast as the rollercoasters in the park
3. You hate the metric system purely because CP was first to break the 200 and 300 foot height
2. Anything farther that CP is too far to drive to
1. You slam on your brakes to simulate a "Mantis Stop"
(Note the first few are when driving from west of CP, if you come from East of the point, you may not know what I'm talking about.)

The back bus is MUCH worse than ANY coaster at any park! The bus driver drives like a bat outta hell and won't slow down! Trust my, country dirt roads and fast buses with (seemingly) no shocks don't mix. I've hit head head on the ceiling before!
JT Coaster, I come from the west, and I know exactly what you mean! *** This post was edited by CP_bound on 10/30/2000. ***

You meet grils on different rides, and whenever you see them you call them by the ride. I love Gemini. She is so nice to me.
Your passwords into all of your network & e-mail accounts is a ride at CP.

Thought of one more:
Your non-enthuisast friends refuse to go with you because of all the stats you give them before the ride on every ride.
