Well my best experience on a roller coaster was with my friends on KK for our senior trip last year. The picture we had was pretty epic also. That day was one of the best of my life....

Well, the best coaster experience was Millennium Force by far. I remember getting in line the first day at CP but the ride broke down so we got out of line. But the up part was on day two, it broke down but we waited. My friend and i got 5 row and were pretty relaxed on the lift. We saw Canada(it was crazy amazing!) and then everything happened. Instead of screaming on a roller coaster WHOOP's and cheers WHOO's came out with my hands up and i didn't know what was happening but i only could get this image fragment from the ride. Looking over at the lift and overbank(on the section where it drops form the hill after the overbank) seeing my friends hands up whooing with me and it was just awesome.
Another time at CP, I got front row on Corkscrew with my friend and he was screaming his head off while i was yelling at the top of my lungs,”IS THAT ALL YOU’VE GOT! BRING IT SON! COME ON! WHOOOOOO!!” It was one of those funny awesome moments.
My favorite story of my lifetime, my friend and i rode Raptor at dusk and we got 4 row and that little camera was filming us and i purposely did this for the video. While my friend screamed his head off, while i posed like a macho man, body builder for the whole ride. I also did a mime and a runner with my feet hanging. We didn't end up buying the video though because the people that get the video were not paying attention to us so we didn't but the experience was amazing.
One last amazing ride was of Fahrenheit. We got on first row in about 20 minutes and had an amazing hands up ride while i screamed,”COASTER FORCE” and quotes form Talledaga nights. Greatest Fahrenheit ride experience ever.

My first trip to PKI. It was around lunch time, and we decided to ride Top Gun (now Flight Deck) because there was no line. I had ridden XLR-8 and Iron Dragon, so I wasn't expecting too much from this coaster.

I remember going up the lift thinking: "Yeah, these rides are fun and all, but they just can't stand up to an Inverted Coaster's thrill factor."

I remember getting off the ride thinking: "Why the hell don't they make these anymore!?"

Not even getting bugs in my teeth could distract me from the wildly (and very suprisingly) aggresive layout this coaster had. Honestly, this ride is so powerful that it made the Arrow Suspended one of my favorite (if not favorite) coaster types.

BGW, Last Summer When I went, I was still kinda a coward until I rode alpengeist. I was so scared. It got to the point of me starting to cry at the top. Suddenly, WHOOSH! We went down. It was amazing. Tears of Cowardice became tears of joy. This ride was sheer B&M perfection. I have ridden that ride 7 times that day. Nothing could possibly beat the Alpengeist. (In my opinion.) I will miss GOOD theme parks since I'm moving to Oregon. Thanks for the memories BGW.
