I love rides at theme parks.... bc they were overdesigned, then overbuilt and constructed over the course of a year.
Fair rides that are designed to be popped up by underpaid carnies in a day? No thank you.

(OK we're not gonna talk about that little incident at Carowinds :laughing: )

Someone once told me they would rather get on a carny fair ride over a theme park because the fair rides are inspected (right?) every time they get moved, by a local inspector, as opposed to once a year by a state inspector or a maybe daily by some pimply 16year old getting minimum wage. I think all of them say let me see it run and sign off on it, as long as the car returns to the station.
 
I went to NCA&T with a guy who was in his 50’s that was a roller coaster maintenance tech at Six Flags. He decided to get his engineering degree and get out of the theme park world. Anyhow, despite us constantly asking, he wouldn’t tell us what all went on behind the scenes at Six Flags. He would only say that he would never ever ride any roller coaster. I’ve pretty much lived by that creed ever since 😂
 
I went to Dollywood last year and after looking at the nails backing out of some of the supports in the wooden coasters was enough to get a big ole "nope" for me.

You won’t find me on a LEGOLAND Florida ride.
