I hope most people know not to eat the food at stands where food is open for people to grab; but it's always nice to have a reminder of why not to.

My wife and I were standing in line for drink refills when a teenager comes up behind us barehanding a turkey leg. He calls out "mom, I need more money for this, I only have $6 left!". She comes over, they argue for 5 minutes. She wins the argument and the boy proceeds to return the item to the counter for the next person to pick up...

Oh no.

That was one of the good slides.

There are slides?

 

[Applesauce]

I feel like you could answer that question on your own.

 

[Zimmy]

well I actually did not know there were slides. Where are they?

They are on back far right side when entering by the sky ride. There is also one in the big tree in the middle.

And the one in the photo is off to the left of the water area. It's the toddler slide of the four slides (The other three being enclosed), but it's at the steepest angle, so it was the best to slide down when wet, you really got some distance.

I assume you are talking about LotD. that was not a thing when I was a kid. I have been in it exactly one time during this years preview. And that was only to see the new area.

My original post with the photo literally says land of dragons in it... No assumptions necessary.

Which is all well and good, except I know for a fact we've talked about the slides in LotD, you have in fact poked fun at me and my love for said slides because it is childish and I am an adult, Which means you did not listen to what I was saying and were just choosing to poke fun at somebody who has enjoyment for fun things.

 

[Zimmy]

I'm sorry I did not see that. But if we are being honest the only thing I noticed was there was a slide. Again I had zero idea that they existed. Nor is there any reason I should.

I do not remember that, But then I am old and forget things.

This is so, so off topic. This thread isn't about what things are where in the park.

Back to the reguarly scheduled programming please.

How is the new interactive Simon Says game holding up?

It was getting a ton of play when I was nearby. So I didn't get to give it a thorough look. I messed around with it with my youngin's on our last visit and I have to admit it I thought it to be a pretty decent addition.

This thread is usually for criticisms, but I want to use this thread to compliment Busch. The Griffon entrance sign was looking kind of spotty last season with paint peeling and faded, but this year it’s been brought back to its former glory, with sharp, bold colors, and it looks great. I know maintenance like that is what the park is supposed to do, but I feel like those little “quality control” details deserve appreciation from time to time.

@Joe: In my opinion that is easily the best post in this thread.

 

[Lord Robert]

The Flying Machine sign...? I don't get it.
