    What are some of your favorite amusement parks? What are your favorite rides? I haven't been to many amusement parks. I've been to Silver Dollar City and Celebration City in Branson, MO. They're pretty cool. I've been to Disney World once. And it was awesome. I LOVE rollercoasters. They're my favorite. Water rides are pretty fun too.

    the only theme park in TO that I go to is canadas wonderland. its kinda boring and nothing is that scary. the rollercoasters are kinda boring and they arent as good as the ones at 6 flgs.

The Texas Giant is a classic too, if you can handle the bumpy ride! Oh yeah, and the Mr. Freeze is alright, but short.

    I'm from the World's capital for Amusement/Theme parks, and I love those places along with rollercoasters. Sea World is great, they have only one roller coaster, and one water ride, both are great though. What's best about that place though, is it's owned by Anheuser-Busch, and you get all of the free beer you want there, as well as beer tasting. I love that place, I'm supposed to be going there sometime while I am on leave over these next two weeks.Disney World's water parks are great, as well as Sports world is fantastic, alot of fun. I love Wet and Wild(going there also in two days while I am on leave), Universal is fun, but the lines are to damn long for me. Mostly I love water parks though, those are my favorites, I go to them all the time.

    Im a Roller Coaster Maniac.The best ive been to are Six Flags Great Adventure, Cedar Point and Six Flags Magic Mountain. I love X at Magic Mouantain and I love Millenium Force at Cedar Point and I love Medusa at Six Flags Great Adventure. I heard Six Flags Over Texas is pretty good so if I go to Texas I might wanna go there.

    Michigan's Adventure is underrated, the waterpark is good thereWolverine Wildcat and Shivering Timbers are solid roller coasters, especially Timbers, its the sh*t. If anyone is wondering its out by Muskegon - I think thats the closest big city to it.

Probably didnt help the fun factor on the 2nd I went, considering I had a fractured shoulder so I couldnt do sh*t.But Shivering Timbers is a nice coaster. Wildcat wasnt much
