Funny things you've overheard people say in queuelines

Not a queue quote, but yesterday at work, I was trying explain why a "rough" coaster can be fun provided it's got the right restraints (using The Ultimate as an example).

Someone then told me about the time he rode a coaster "somewhere in America" with a newly pierced ear, took a major headbanging, and came off missing said piercing and covered in blood. His description of the coaster?
Him: "It was a Nemesis".
Me: (Takes a moment to resist the stabby urges) "...Two-across seating?"
Him: "Yeah."
Me: "Yeah, that'll be a Vekoma SLC mate."

That is why you remove those sorts of things before riding lol. :banghead:
 
The first one is nothing to do with what was said, but what was observe.

On Saturday, I was sitting outside the Chicken place by the Smiler, A Dad brought his young girl behind the information board, all looking very shifty. She starts to take off a shoe and I just presume that she had a stone in her shoe. They removed from each shoe, a large crumple up ball of tissue paper, obviously to get over the height restriction.

Yesterday, I went on Hex, I was sat to a group of young girls (they looked like there were in their 20's). It was quiet clear that one of them has never been on Hex before, but the others had. They were telling her to hold on tight but wouldn't tell her what happens. When the ride was in motion, the poor girl was really holding on for dear life, feet braced against the front and cowing her head down, not easy to explain, but it was priceless and very funny to witness :tearsofjoy::tearsofjoy::tearsofjoy:

Who? Are you sure it was me? Me using a fast track queue?...Shusssh! :eek::oops:

Yes it was lovely to have met you and your family.

Just in-case anyone asked, I was making use of the Hotel stay fast track. as you can see, I only used it for the RMT. I didn't need it for the others :D

Yeah that's how mine looked as we didn't need to use them for nemesis,oblivion and duel....me and the daughter queued(although not for long) and got a parent q share for the mrs as my 7 year old is 135cm unfortunately....hoping for a growth spurt for next year as he's itching to get on the thrill rides

We did manage to blag RMT into accepting it again near the end of the night as nothing else was ticked and i said it was because me lad was too small:D

sorry for going off topic
 
So there were three girls in the seats behind us on hex
Screaming the whole ride
Overheard in the exit corridor
“I feel like now we’ve done hex we can go on the smiler”
“Yeah now we’ve done hex we can go on anything upside down” o_O
 
Nemesis queue - ‘I’m not queuing again. Just poop in the line, everyone does it”

Oblivion - ‘there’s a cart at the bottom of the hole. People died and they left it there. You can’t see it thought because the speed makes you close your eyes’

Flume - ‘there’s no rule against standing up. They just advise you not to’

Oblivion - ‘there’s a cart at the bottom of the hole. People died and they left it there. You can’t see it thought because the speed makes you close your eyes’ Can confirm, this is 100% scientifically accurate

Flume - ‘there’s no rule against standing up. They just advise you not to’ You want to die? That's how you die.

See the bold.
 
Back in 2002 I had to mop the front corner of the Nemesis station as it smelled like a urinal :rolleyes:
 
Strange link...
Walking down the steps to Icon earlier in the week, the Lavender on each side is now in full flower.
Stank like my grannies bog.
Took me back forty years.
Better than Nemesis piss though.
Should have queueline bogs for us oldies.

Didn't notice the smell when I went on Monday, but knowing me I wouldn't have liked it if I had. :p
