Thought I would share one from the guests point of view

Post by svickersart » Mon Jun 18, 2007 10:45 am

Last year my G/F went to six flags Discovery Kingdom in Vallejo CA, what we used to know as Marine World. It was a school trip with her 10 Y/O son. They went to see the tiger show, arrived early and sat on a bench right in front, good seats. A SG and her daughter arrived and stood right in front of my G/F and her son and another lady and her daughter who had joined them on the front row bench. My G/F and the other lady asked ms. SG to move several times and SG and her daughter just stayed where they were blocking everyones view. Now we all hate people who like to show up and block eveyones view, and I'm sure many of us would like to throw something at them but we have manners so we ask politely for them to move. Its the SG's that dont move that really get us all mad, (kinda like the ones that stop in the middle of the row in the theater so they can have center seats and we all have to climb over them) But there is not much we can do but hope someone who works for the venue comes along and tells them to get out of the way. Well, someone who "works" at the venue got the message across to ms. SG and her daughter, seems the tiger who was performing in the show didnt care to have them that close so he turned around and sprayed the girl :D: she of course started crying while everyone else was laughing at her and SG junior and SG mom left. I sure wish I would have been there to see it.

I remember when Marine World/Africa USA moved from Redwood City to Vallejo. They put all the animals on barges and towed them up the bay. It was very biblical.
