Thorpe Park

Oops, Maybe You Were looking For Fail

(None of this is graciously stolen from Uncyclopedia. Well, not anymore anyway...)

Their slogan is 'Twisted Pleasure... Twisted Pleasure in conning you out of your money, your dignity, your life's existence and NEW FOR 2011! Your eyesight!

Thorpe Park (also known as Fail Park, Thorpe Krap, Hell or The place which we do not speak of) is one of Britain's worst nightmares and the British enthusiast's dream gone horribly wrong with added FAIL. A chav breeding ground and so called 'Thrill Capital', it's only thrills are the queuelines and the fact rides break down every day, on the hour and every hour. It is a place of terror for any family within children under 12 and no wait... let me rephrase that... it is Britain's most voted place of terror.

The Scottish equivalent to Thorpe Park is M and Ds. No arguments. It just is.

The park's slogan is Join the queue for real fun! and it appears in all cases, this is true.

Oh, well, at least it's not as bad as Chessington!

History

The park was opened in 1979 as a very nice and decent place where everyone could go and have a jolly old time! Families liked it. Enthusiasts liked it. It had some lovely little rides and attractions too that were decent as well and sometimes... even good! Wonderful even. Of course this was back before the chavs were an invented species and the 21st century had come into motion.

Some former rides and attractions are as follows:

• Phantom Fantasia/Wicked Witches Haunt - Burnt down just after the news of a Intamin roller coaster came along. This was the Southern equivalent to The Haunted House at Alton Towers, with a 1990 onride to prove it. There used to be an animatronic witch at the front of the ride who cackled at you for your stupid 80s mullet/90s shave. This is what remained of the fire incident. Look at what Intamin did to the park!

• Magic Mill/Mr Rabbit's Tropical Travels - Also partially burnt down with Wicked Witches Haunt. This was a wonderful and pleasant ride that was the Southern equivalent to Toyland Tours at Alton Towers with another onride to prove it. T'was rethemed to the Ranger County area and soon replaced by Nymphferior.

• Pirates 4D - Possibly one of the most decent 4D shows in the UK at the time with an animatronic pirate parrot, the film starred Leslie Nielsen and Eric Idle. The Naked Gun meets Monty Python with a big heap of pirate costumes? AHOY! Was removed for FAIL Time Voyagers.

• Thorpe Farm - Decent farm, closed because nobody cared for it anymore.

• Model World - Decent models of various visitor attractions around the world.
