Hmmmm ET go home! (hehehehe)

I, (and me shipmates) got hooked on the singapore slings one cruise"

The best ones were made at the Dragon boat bar in the Hong Kong Hilton. The bartender would "Pour" different gin's in and not "bruise" them, they formed colored bands in the glass!! then you put a straw in and drank at the "Line" when they met!!

Mmmmmmm!!

(before I discovered RUM!!)

The guest hit you? There's more to this story, I can tell, but that's crazy. Someone hits you, you don't hit back...That's battery!

Oh and Welcome. Expect the Marsupials shortly.
I didn't hit back, I restrained. Regardless of any park's policy, I will exercise my right to defend myself. If they hit first, they're the ones getting charged for battery. Any park that has a problem with that can see me in court.

Yes, the guest hit me because I wouldn't give him his drugs back. You find something on them that can get them arrested, and they get all touchy-grabby on you to get it back and hide. There are other stories as well, involving some foot chases... and a few involving vehicles, but those are for another time.

Wait, K's had security? Where were they when we needed them? :D:

I swear, if it was a rides related issue, we were on our own in handling the guest...

Yeah, and half the time when they did show up, they were clueless as to what to do. Seriously. They must've been off smoking pot or something--I heard rumors of that kind.

Several years ago, I took my friend to Knott's on Mother's Day. We rode a few rides and then watched the western show. Good show, but noisy. My favorite is Mystery Lodge. My friend and I were counting to see how many security guards were there. People watching and we came across 10.

I heard that another company bought out Knott's. If that is trure, I wonder what will be done to improve the parks?

I hope the first thing they do is repave the employee parking lot on Western!

When I did ROP in 12th grade, I did park in that parking lot. My brother worked there before and he said the pot holes could do damage to your tires. That parking lot was an eye sore. :eek:

Half of the time you could not tell if the parking lot had spaces. It was a wild guess.

Cedar Fair bought out Knott's in 1991. It's gone downhill since then.
