So, here's the place to discuss theme parks, roller coasters, or anything else similar.

I'll start.
I have a seasons pass to Carowinds, and have ridden every single ride in the park (except for a few kiddie rides that I am too tall for). I especially like the Intimidator. It's 232 feet tall, and reaches 80 mph.

I will also post updates concerning major new roller coasters being announced.

I'm in Australia and my parents can't really afford that stuff anyway. I don't think there is any theme parks around my area either.

I've been in Mirabilandia in Italy with my friend, it was my first time outside the country.

My friend forcefully dragged me on the ride called ‘Katun’ because everything else looked too scary.

After that I vomited, paled, and never dared to go on rollercoasters again

A bit too extreme for me XD

Yes, I have been keeping up with the Kings Island announcement. It was made on the 8th, so it's not really news to me.

I wish there was something like Top Thrill Dragster near me. I would ride it in an instant.

This local park I go to a lot, Holiday World, has the best water rides in the history of water rides. They have great coasters too: look how awesome this is!

A nearby park has http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JtUj-sEq3JE which is often considered on of the best rollercoasters and held the record for tallest wooden coaster for a while. It's also got the tallest Water Ride and the two longest watercoasters (it bested itself in consecutive years . . . idk).

Also free drinks all day erryday :'D

So my favorite theme park that I have been to would have to be hands-down, Universal Studios Orlando
I also went to Magic Kingdom, which was more attractions and less rides. I liked Space Mountain, but hated that Stitch thing. Just…no. I thought my shoulders were going to break.
I feel like I have already said this before…

Just last week I went to Hershey Park in Hershey, PA.

Really epic rollercoasters! ^^

I went on the most recent rollercoaster, Skyrush. That was totally amazing. :3 I really like the Great Bear and Fahrenheit also.

I was actually at Cedar Point last week, which is something I've wanted to do for a while! Maverick was probably my favorite coaster, but Millennium Force and Top Thrill Dragster are a close second and third.

Superman (what Bizarro used to be named) is a fantastic ride, but sadly I can't ride it anymore because the smoke is disorienting and gives me motion sickness.

Have you been on Batman at the same park? That's a great ride as well.

High five for riding the second-fastest roller coaster in the world (I have too)!

I'm not exactly a daredevil, but I finally tried my first *real* rollercoaster (MadMouse at Michigan's Adventure doesn't count. ) back at Cedar Point in June 2012 on our 8th grade field trip. I decided to ride the Raptor. It was awesome. Then we rode the Dragster (long wait, but totally worth it) and the Gemini. We didn't have any more time, though.

I haven't really been to any other theme park other than the two.
