<div class="IPBDescription">and boy are my arms tired...</div>Yesterday I went with my friend Stephen to <a href='http://www.sixflags.com/parks/overtexas/index.asp' target='_blank'>Six Flags Over Texas</a> to pwn what we could pwn. It was great cause since it was a Tuesday there wasn't that many people there (for a major theme park I mean). A lot of the time the wait in line wasn't that long (considering how long normal wait times are), and near the end of the day when most people left we actually got to ride a few times in a row w/o any wait at all! Pwn!
I rode pretty much every thrill ride they have there that doesn't suck, multiple times heh. It was great. Here's a list:
The Titan - 6 Times. Gotta love the 2G's it pushes on you on that first drop
The Batman - 6 Times. How can you not love inverted loops and corkscrews, let alone doing a corkskrew while in a loop!
The Texas Giant - 2 Times. I love this coaster, but the second time it felt like the wheel came off the rail on one of the carts. No more riding it for the day. :o
Runaway Mountain - 2 Times. Its a great little coaster w/ lots of flips and turns, but its inside a building, completely pitch black, so you don't see it coming. Great fun.
Superman Tower of Power - Only rode this once. Wasn't really that exciting and is very, very overrated. I was actually ready to get off the ride due to boringness about half-way through. Bleh.
We also rode the rapids about 4 times to cool down by getting soaking wet. Also since my friend Stephen is the biggest perv on Earth he was hoping to see white t-shirts get wet the whole time, and instead we ended up in carts with old grandmas and 8 year olds. There were also some coasters we didn't ride for various reasons (usually due to them sucking).
Scariest part of the whole day though was on the way home. It was about 1:00am in the middle of nowhere on the highway and there was a trucker pulling 2 trailers ahead of us, and he was asleep. Truck was weaving across both lanes and there was about 10 different times he came within inches of flipping the whole thing over. We stayed far, far behind this one.
Now to catch up on the NS forums. Can't believe you people posted 4 pages of Off Topic in just one day. :P
