Re: Wheelchair Fakers

It’s just like how the able people park in the designated Disabled parking space and walk just fine. Theme parks are really human zoos, from my own experiences and the tales I have read on this web site. Damn, I never knew that working in theme park would really color the way I perceive the human ra...

Re: Best Encounter At Knotts EVER

Putting aside the weather and elements... I don't know if this has been covered on these forums, but I really wanted to get it off my mind and chest.

Some rides I've worked on were Hammerhead (before the management klutzes finally razed that heap of jun...

Favorite guests’ remarks

“If I die, I’m gonna sue!” Me: "I’m sorry. Due to certain restrictions, the ride will not be able to accommodate you." Blubbery guest (trying not to look embarrassed): “Okay, I didn’t want to ride it anyway.” “Does this ride go upside down?” , after this person has been standing in the lon...
