Ricochet dinosaur

[DeathbyDinn]

Anyone know the reasoning behind the dinosaur on one of ricochet cars?

Maybe, the mechanics did it to be funny. The ride is so old, it's like a dinosaur. I never noticed that... Hmm. On V2, they have on the back bumper of it, See Ya...

I don't know if a person did it, but on Batman the Ride, they have this sticker of a dummy looking guy that is near the signs that say Exit now or Front Row Sign (on the Right). He reminds of the Toyman from Superman.

Maintenance and the painters do that kind of thing a lot. Until recently you could find all 4 main South Park Characters on Viper, they were all pretty large and easy to spot if you knew to look for em. Now it seems to be down to one random support on I think the 3'rd hill that's covered in lizards and snakes. Back when the kids rides were in hometown square there was a rocket ride, each had a rocket name and a planet name on it, and it was no coincidence that one was named Titan Uranus. And without giving away the whole list of hidden things that have been at the park over the years, there used to be a tradition of "find the hidden Playboys" during fright fest. A lot of the out of the way mannequins, if they were wearing clothing had playboy mags in their back pocket.

That particular Dinosaur is new. There was a spot on another car that, either coincidentally or not, looked like a dinosaur. This one is much more pronounced, I imagine that a painter did it just be funny and/or reference that other spot that frequently makes it into trip reports.

^ It actually is the same car, #9. It appears that Ricochet's cars were painted this season, because all of the pattern's are slightly different.

Can you get a picture of that?

Bump

American Eagle has a flame like steel thing on the bottom of the blue train - It might be car 32, but it's something around there - like car 33, 32, or 31. You can see it from that the station of the red train.

Also, for the Orbit's spiel about exiting the ride, to me it's really bad. It's almost like the heads up that decided to have that spiel didn't even realize what they are saying. They say something like exit by First Aid. That's really the worst thing you can say to guests going off of a ride. Instead, they should say (It's recorded though.) the exit is near that ) _________ game. For how many times I pass by that game, I can't even think what it is. Is it Wac A Mole game?

I know another secret but it does not have to do with these "Bumper stickers" lmao idk if I'm allowed to say it.

I've looked a few times this season and I still have no idea whats there.

^There is a sign that says "bottom-less lake". Emphasis on the "bottom-less". At least I think that's it.

Maybe It's Six Flag's Equal to Hidden Mickeys?

Back to Ricochet again, look at car 11 (on the left side of it), and it looks like a money sign in brown -($) ! Maybe, Car 11 is the money seat.
