Anyone care to share their experience with any amusement parks? I went to Univeral Studios in Orlando twice, once in 1996, and the other in 2000. I must say nothing compares to the movie rides there. The best ride is Back to the Future. I'll take those over rollercoasters any day.

I like Busch Gardens, in Virginia. It's small, and they aren't exactly known for their roller coasters like Cedar Point or anything, but I like how it's split up into the different cultures and stuff. Lotta good times there.

I still hold Disneyland as being the best. I never been to Disneyworld, however.

Favorite rides are the Haunted Mansion and Indiana Jones & The Temple of the Forbidden Eye.

Not a rides person, so amusement parks are a big deal to me.

Which is just outside of Minneapolis.

God, I LOOOOOOOOVE Valleyfair. I've been there a TON of times. Last time I was there was in May 2003, when they opened that new ride. Umm, the name escapes me. Steel of Venom or something.

And my most favorite ride there (next to the Corkscrew) is Wild Thing. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I get such a thrill from going up their 200-feet hill and then going dooooooooown...OMG what a rush. The only two rides I will not go on is that stupid mouse ride (I think that ride SUCKS) and the, um, Excabliur...Something like that. UGH, I feel like I'm going to fall out every time I ride it...:mad:

I loooove the Looping Starship...Ahaha...What an awesome ride. :D Oh god. I could ride every ride in Valleyfair (with the expection of those two) a million times and not get sick of it. I LOVE roller coasters! Wheeeeee! :D
