free theme park tickets >>>> damaging the health of your unborn child by smoking whilst pregnant

Because riding rough old woodies with a tight lap restraint is totally safe for an unborn baby.
Yes, a somewhat bizarre incentive, given that most, if not all, high octane rides state that pregnant women are not to ride them anyway. What are these pregnant women going to do in their day at BPB? Satisfy their cravings for donuts whilst sitting on the PBE all day ?
How about offering free season passes to people as an incentive for losing weight? I'd happily shed a few stone to get a free season pass. This would also resolve seat swapping issues on Icon !

Think it would need more than a season pass to get you slim dippy.
Hey, I've never been sent to the back row of Icon, anyway I blame @shakey for introducing me to the FY4 Gourmet burgers with chilli jam

Especially if they get there and the lights on the scenic railway aren't switched on! Day. Ruined.Seems a bit of a bad deal, having to go all the way to Yarmouth to take advantage of the vouchers.
Nothing particularly interesting here, but gives some minor info in terms of how the ride was financed - http://www.bmmagazine.co.uk/news/natwest-backs-blackpool-pleasure-beach-rollercoster/

Hi guys. I've got a quick question. I'm headed to Blackpool for the first time in just under a month. We're spending the whole day there, and I just realised that provided I get on everything, I will hit the momentous milestone of 50 roller coasters at BPB. Well, I currently class every 10 coasters as a milestone, but 50 is my first proper milestone so to speak. I just came here to ask; what do you guys think I should potentially make my 50th coaster, provided that all goes to plan? Before any of you say Icon, I was also thinking that, but my parents seem intent on rushing to Icon first thing, so that will likely be #43. What are you guys' opinions?

I’d go for Dipper or national... they are historically important in the timeline of coasters, like the Scenic at Margate, my local park,which was saved.
Or Big One because, it’s the big one!

Lol I'd say one of the classic wooden coasters for sure.
Shame it can’t be the mouse.

I agree with Grand National or Big Dipper. Both classics. If your 50th coaster is Nash, it’s not exactly something you’ll forget in a hurry !
