Ever been to a theme park alone? Just for the rides?

[TommyVercetti]

Back in early 2001, I was interning in Dallas, and away from family and friends. So not knowing what to do, I just made up a plan to go to Six Flags, since the company was selling the tickets so cheap. I obtained a map of the park, and made a order in which I would go about it.

So as soon as they opened, I was amongst the first one in. The first 3 rides, I was the amongst the first ones in line, if there was even any. In about 4 hours, I was done with all the rides, and had ridden some rides twice. The Batman ride had a wait of 40 minutes, and I sweated it out under the sun. The ride was total crap, and a waste of time.

That's the advantage of going alone, you can go to whichever ride you want, and do it fast. But here is the bummer. There were these 2 girls there too, and I was in the same ride with them 3 times. One of them said to the other "Is this guy following us?"

Nope.

Uh.. that is kind of bad. Movies you can enjoy alone, but going to an amusement park what fun is it to laugh on the ride if you are not with anyone you know?

 

[Jetblade]

Stop following girls you sicko!

 

[hjo3]

No... but I hate theme parks.

 

[JBT]

I do too now. They just get boring after a while.

The more you post the more I fear for society. You obviously didn't take my advice about standing in the freeway.

I've been to numerous Theme Parks by myself. Many of them have been because I was in a location with the family, but they have no interest, so I find my way to the theme park and enjoy it.

I'd imagine I've ridden over 500 roller coaster rides, probably 50 of them unique.

edit: I've basically started this when I was 14
double edit: I've met numerous people at theme parks, some of which I have met again.

I wouldn't go alone, it's too depressing. Pay $50 and stand in the sun for 3/4 of the time, with no one to talk to? Nah.

 

[stormbv]

Nah, I'm not that introverted.

 

[Dacalo]

No offense, but that's sad.

I have never been to a theme park less than 6 friends.

Dear Santa...

 

[Feldenak]

Nope...but I don't like amusement parks.

 

[AgaBoogaBoo]

Nope, but I'm 15 so it could change eventually, but hopefully not anytime soon

Why? because you are too insecure and dont wanna appear to be a loner to other people?
