My worst queue experiance included taking notes of all the people that annoyed me while I was in line instead of enjoying the fact I was not at work.
Normally, if I go looking for things to be upset with, I will find them.

Can you see One-Eyed-Willie from the top of Magnum?
WOW, you actually took the time to post that? And it isn't even the NFL playoffs yet!
Platinum has it's perks. So does living exactly 97.5 miles from King's Island and Cedar Point
I wonder what the distance for a round trip from 1-3, down the exit ramp, around to the entrance, and back up to 1-3 is.
The worst experience for me was back in 2000, waiting in line for Millennium Force for over three hours to get on at night. When we were by the unloading station, I had to pee really bad. I tried to hold it, but I couldn't do it. I had to use the bathroom right then. So after waiting three hours with my mom and a frst-timer at Cedar Point (was not the first time on Millennium Force for her though, as we went on earlier that day) we didn't even get on the ride - thanks to me. I was 8 years old at the time, and although it makes for a good laugh now, back then I could tell my mom and her friend weren't the happiest people standing in line for three hours for nothing. Then of course on the way out of the line I got all the "Aww don't be scared" talk which just made me upset, because at the time of course when you're 8 years old, you think you're pretty tough knowing that you're 310 feet in the air. Anyways though, that has to be my worst experience, and I ended up causing it. :(
Since line jumping seems to be at an all time high, and since my friend has that paper that can be printed out and ironed on shirts, I'm thinking about making some shirts that say something like:
back: Line Jumping Is Wrong
front: If you know what the back of my shirt says then you just line jumped!
or
back: I know the number to call security, so dont think about line jumping in front of me!
front: (in small lettered) Line jumping is wrong.
Of course I'd like some suggestions.:)

Two years ago I was stuck behind a group of guys, probably from somewhere south, (jean cut shorts, torn Nascar shirt, Mountain Dew in hand) waiting for TTD. It was a good 2-2.5 hour wait, and one of the guys kept scratching his ass. It was quite disgusting to see. But his buddy had him beat. He had to of farted for a good hour, the worst damn farts I had ever smelled in my entire life. Literally whenever we would move up, you would get a new wiff of fart and just want to fall over. But what could I of done... other than wear a gas mask. *** Edited 8/21/2006 6:07:46 AM UTC by Chris Mills***

Chris -
You don't have to move up when the people in front of you move up. They'll wait. ;)
Oh, and if they were from the south, it was "Coke" they were drinking.

They have more styles.

I have never really had a bad one at CP, but SFMM I waited in what should be 1/2 hour wait for goliath for over 3 due to 1 train operation. I have had smokers in line, it bothers me but I never say anything, same with line jumpers.
Funniest experience was sitting on the rails on MF que and falling backwards and doing a sweet flip, then having everyone around me laugh. I was sitting on the rais by the brake run. :)
My worst queue experience would have to be last summer at SFKK(Which I think is the worst out of SixFlags group) me and my dad were in waiting in line for Chang, well first I stopped in line at a coke machine to see if it was working, it wasn't. Those 10 seconds went by and a group of 3 passed us. Well we move on and jointed the line, well the rust of there group cought up, passing other groups standing in line, and they wanted to pass us. NO my dad yelled at them so we didn't let that happen, and all the way up the stairs they were b*tching and care'en on about some worthless crap. That was by far the worst, those kids were just plain rude. But CP I've never had any problem with other people in line, even for TTD in 03 a 2 1/2 hour line.
