What do you DO in line?
When waiting for your favorite coaster (assuming it's not a walk-on), what do you do? My favorite thing is to watch the people and the funny, goofy things they do in line or on the ride!

I have to do this as a joke, the urge hit me....what do I do in line......I smoke.....Im just joking had to throw it out there. Acutually on MF I loved to stand there and give the thumbs up at the trains going around the final turn and yell.."yeah baby" at them as they gave me the two thumbs back!
I usually find something to say to the people I'm with or amuse myself with the surroundings. I can listen to music anytime, play gameboy anytime, or read a book anytime. Interacting with friends, other people, or watching the rides is something I don't get to do everyday. I'd rather interact with the world then cut myself off from it by doing other things.

I like to talk to the people around me. Interaction is fun, learing where people are from and where they are going. And many people learned of this site today!

Usually, I talk to people around me. But on Mean Streak and Raptor, and I see all of the people's faces on the rides, I wish I were on the ride so I didn't have to wait.
I like to make a line friend. A special bond that will last until you get on the ride. I the absence of a nice person in front of me or behind me I just talk to my friends. If the line has a DJ I will try to get him to play any song I think the people in line with me will like.

Right on, brother Dave! Hands down my favorite past time! When the temperatures go up, the clothes come off. So much eye candy it's hard to deal with it.
Before someone jumps all over me for being sexist, let's not pretend that people don't look at each other or that it's wrong. It's what people do. When they stop, it's probably because they're dead.

Haha Jeff!
Unfortunately there happens to be a severe lack of cute boys at CP every single year. Which sucks. Maybe I should start ogling chicks too. (ugh, maybe not)
Back to what I do in line...my friends and I play war in line, always bring a deck of cards so we're ready. We had 5 people in our war game on Sunday, it was great.
O, and also we got in a sort of yelling match with these really obnoxious people behind us who lit up cigars and would not put them out even when we asked nicely -- instead they started blowing the smoke in our faces. I told security, who promptly did...oh nothing. I threw something at the cigar and he dropped it and then he wanted 2 dollars from me, of course after he picked it up, broke it, and started throwing the tobacco inside at us, all the while talking in ebonics about some dumb crap and wanting 2 bucks. Also, he kept calling me a midget cause I'm only 5'1" and his friend who looked like he could stand to lose a bit of weight made the comment "Don't you have to be 48" to ride this ride?" It was in line for MF so I said, "No, it's 54" and you know, guests with extreme obesity may not be able to fit. I hope you tried the test car at the front of the line..." That shut them up for awhile. Then we were on the platform and they figured out that I seemed to know all the ride ops, so they then left me alone and I didn't have to deal with them again.

When I wait in line, I get really annoying. I do Buddy's Carpet impressions and stupid stuff like that. People have thrown money at me to shut me up. When I was at G.Lake some one said, "Hey that kid is going over there, so lets go over here." I do this to make my friends laugh and thats what it does!!
I usually argue about rollercoasters with my brother.

Actually if anyone was in the MF line yesterday at about 7:20 they would have saw me with a big blow up alien. Me and my friend were punching it and getting all excited. But you got to play I spy and stupid stuff like that. Of course look at the chicks. (sunglasses a must)Then talk about amuzing pick up lines, and tell jokes with the people behind you.
i like to mess with the DJ (especially on magnum... he used tapes the last time i saw him) as a fellow DJ i find that he..... well..... is not as good as me, but thats me. The only reason I say this is because i was in line for magnum last year for about 45 min. and I heard Lynyrd Skynyrd's "Sweet Home Alabama" at least seven times!
