TOP THRILL DRAGSTER (Wait line)

I've had people later on in the day with various rides let me and whomever I was with go in front of them, but I haven't actually had anyone cut in line, that I can recall. Then again, I've only been there three thymes :( Get it, thyme?

RyanL, did you do anything other than make joke? Like actually saying something?

Actually, I think last I was there toward the end of June iirc, they had someone out by the turnstiles that had me and my brother wait until there was more room on the platform.

But then again, I could remember nothing and somehow be making this all up...

I enjoy the "2 hands on the queue rail" technique... however one time while walking into Raptor, even this didn't work, as a group behind me just went through the rails... that always annoys the hell out of me...

That takes some balls to go through the queue rails. The 2 hands on the rail technique works well, but only if you're aware of someone coming up on you.

I got caught totally off guard at Wicked Twister the other day. The first girl made it by me, and the second girl I grabbed her shirt and asked where the heck she was going but she pulled herself away from me and pushed through the line more.

I had this experince once... it wasn't in a queue, but when I was at the Season Pass Preview night at Canada's Wonderland last year.

I was waiting in the huge crowd with a couple of my pals to be let in and obviously run like hell to Italian Job, the new coaster.
We were very close to front of the pak, only a few people ahead of us, when this 30 year-old asshole almost knocked me down to try to get past me, and when I turned to confront him, he was all up in face saying "oh, you got a problem with that... insult, insult"

I couldn't believe it, I was in shock that a guy that old could be so immature and a complete and total jerk infront his family(who weren't impressed by his actions) and this crowd of over 200 people!

People don't get what Line Jumping even is. I was at the park with a youth group, and the students kept calling me saying "Hey, just come meet us in line"... or "Hey, theres no one in line, lets just cut across the queue rails".... It was also tough, as many of them kept sitting / standing on the rails while we were in line, and my CP instinct kept cringing inside of me....

And they called me stupid for not doing any of it...

Hey guys there is a simple solution for this matter. When I am at the park I have the park number stored in my phone when someone cuts in line. I just call the park and then send security out to the ride. Then someone else points them out for cutting and no one even knows that you called. Works like a champ.

An amazing thing happened today.....nobody line jumped in either of my 3 rides on Millennium, and my 2 rides on Dragster!!

It's crazy!!!:)

No pun intended.

LOL. It's cool man, everyone makes typos. Not everyone is cool about it when they get picked on about it, though :).

It seems to me that you tend to get less of it on weekdays when families are there on vacation, than on weekends when it's "anyone and everyone" at the park.

What do you say when you call? Do you call a special number for security or do you just call the main number? I actually had this idea when I was there last weekend, but I didn't have my phone with me.

I agree. CP needs to learn how to have enough people staffed so that the TTD station doesn't get packed like that. It is extremely irritating to get all the way up there and then find the front row that long.
