Front Seat Freebies

Post by Syndrome » Mon Jul 16, 2007 1:33 pm

I love to ride Row 2 of Hulk because 30 to 40 percent of the time there are only three people in the front row (maybe I have a lucky aura), and I NEVER let that go to waste! Last time I was there, I was chatting with DH about the fact that it looked like there were only three for our ride cycle. The chick behind me must have been listening in...as soon as the gates opened, she's yelling at the Team Member, "I want that seat!" and trying to shove by DH and I with "Excuse me! Excuse me!" Hubby body blocked and I made use of my big ol' butt to keep her behind me...no SG is going to listen in on my strategy and steal that front seat right under my nose. Needless to say, I got my rightful place (the TMs weren't even paying attention to her yelling so she just huffed into row 2). I do have to say, tho', that's some pretty stinkin' brass balls to overhear a plan and try to ursurp it for yourself!

Oh i do love the front row on hulk. I especially love the view of the barrel roll at the exit of the launch tunnel. That is quite the strategy. I will make use of it next time i visit. Provided syndrome hasn't already called it first. :p:

I love it when guests start listening to me and I catch on. I start giving out bad advice, it's worked in the past at Six Flags :twisted:

Personally, I like the back row, left seat of the Hulk.

Absolutely! Although they are moving the dolphins from the water around Dumbo to the Nemo lagoon in MGM, you know, where you can ride the black pearl and fight the mummy as the incredible hulk, it's right next to the Shamu show building...
