Postby sixflagsguy5 on September 12th, 2004, 6:24 pm
FRIDAY

Ok the carnival in park ridge is about a 5 minute bike ride from my house. Anyways. I went friday, i hung out with some people that i knew and met some new people. I didn't get on any rides though because i didn't bring money.

Highlight of the night: Friend put 7 holes in the titanic moon walk think with a knife.

SATURDAY

Got there at 7 ish. Got on the screamer, cost: 4 dollars. The restraints are so bad that it is fun. Now i know why king chaos has the lap bars. Also went on the ferris wheel. :roll: LOL.

Hightlight of the night: No comment. :roll:

More to come tonight or tomorow night.

alcohol, hormones, pressure to be potrayed as a "rebel" by friends.


I cant yell at him, mainly because when I was his age, and was with a group of friends, I'm not sure that I wouldnt have/didnt do something similar to that.

No, he is grounded for egging the bus at his school. He's in 8th grade, and im a freshman. I'm off school today, so i get to cause trouble at his school. No the kid who did it is kindof my friend.

Anyways:


Sunday

Got to the carnival at 5 ish, we went over to this church that is about 5 blocks away, because anyone in ccd there got to go on a these moon walk things. One was a mechanical bull and you got timed for how long you could stay on. The second you are attached in a harness(like a climbing harness) any the harness has a bungy cord. You see how far you can run, and you have to play against each other. Well me and my friends pulled our one friend about 10 feet more than its supposed to go. Then we let go and he flung back about 30 feet right into the moon walk wall. I think he was going at least 30 mph. It was awesome. Then i did it and i hit my head on something hard. Then we got kicked out because they figured out that we weren't in ccd. Mainly because how we were acting. Secondly how we were dressed. Then they tried getting us to go to ccd there, because everyone was going inside to listen to bible stories. We got out saftly, then we went to the carnival.

I bought a night pass for 12 $ its a green stamp that goes on your hands, so we stamped it on each other, so we got 5 people in for 24 $. I got on the bumper cars once, the screamer once, 1001 nachts once, super shot twice, and the fun house 5 times.

Highlight of the night: Getting kicked out of the church thing, and my friend doing a handstand on the tunnel that moves and getting stuck upside down and falling on his head 3 times.

I think your 3/3 for those.

Overall the carnival wasn't that great. I had to leave early. Nobody was really there the last hour but they wanted full loads for all the rides or most of them.

Sounds like a Fantasy Amusements Spot, Screamer would be a Kamikaze ride but with one arm. Was the freefall tower there?

I was at a Fantasy Amusements carnival 2 Saturdays ago. It was fun. I went on the Screamer twice with my friend. I've really grown to like that ride. I especially liked how the restraint was loose on me, made the ride more exciting. The first time we went on it that day, we must have been on that ride for like 5 minutes, the ride was so long. The guy thought it was funny to keep us going for 5 minutes. Good times.
