DID they do one of those "forced prespectives" on the ride to make it look more scary? I.E. youll hit your hands on the beam if you put them up?

Agreed. I'm just a wuss when it comes to hitting my head. Seeing how my IQ fell the last five or six times I had a good head hit, I can't afford to have it happen again. I know there's plenty of space, and I'm sure I could even ride with my hands in the air and not hit anything, but it still scares the crap out of me. I actually don't mind the rough ride.

UGH!!!!!

"What day does the '2-fer' end?" asks SG #1... "Ma'am, that promotion ended in April of 2007. " "So I JUST missed it... "

Mickey's Halloween Treat has been sold out for 2 weeks now. I have heard every excuse in the book about how we need to sell this guest a ticket because "I'm a AP holder" or because "we got evacuated and we DESERVE these tickets".. The fun one so far has been one of those American Express Titanium card holders that had their "vip concierge" call me BEGGING me to allow his guest to purchase tickets even after they were sold out.. What part of SOLD OUT don't any of these people understand?? :confused:

You should sell them the "advanced" ticket for next year! "Yes sir, you get to go to the head of the line!!"

Also, does anyone else ever worry that they'll get smacked by a loose flying object on Space Mountain? I know, I have ISSUES. :rolleyes:
One of my earliest traumatic memories is from an auto carwash. I was probably 3 or 4, and I was convinced that the spinning brushes were fan blades, and they were about to tear into the car.

Wasn't there a "Car wash" scene in one of the 60's spy movies? :eek:

I bet MainStreet will wear the beer costume so as to attract certain SGT men.

Does anybody know why someone would spend time asking someone if they know the way to San Jose?
