Funny, Great, Unusual, and Tragic Stories

The Millenium Force is the blue one in the background of the first picture of the Top Thrill Dragster (thanks for reminding me of its name). The hill on the left of that picture is the highest one on the Millenium Force (and you don't see the loopy part further to the left). The Millenium Force freaked me out looking at it too, and it was the first one everyone ran for. Perhaps if I had seen the Top Thrill Dragster before they went on the Millenium Force, it might not have seemed so bad in comparison! :uhh:

Dang. I still remember riding the Wildcat at Cedar Point. When I was just barely "you must be taller than this line".

My best memory of Cedar Point is the french fries with salt and vinegar.
