I was tempted to count Journey to Atlantis at Sea World Orlando as a coaster, but I don't think it really is a "pure" one.

For those who keep count, that's 86 coasters. I may hit 99 by September and then I have to decide on my 100th coaster!

How do you remember this stuff????

 

[olena]

Wow, Barry!

You HAVEN'T been to Kennywood?

The Thunderbolt is awesome and I LOVE the Jack Rabbit....

 

[Bob O]

Very nice record. Im somewhere in the 80's but cant access my coaster count that i have at another site. Im going out to CA later this year and should be able to get into the 100's.

 

[Dan Murphy]

That's great, Barry, and you also, Bob. I think I have about 20 to my count, but that would be going back a few years, including the days of Chicago's old Riverview.

 

[disnee15]

Hey Barry,
I'm going to Magic Mountain Next week!!

 

[shep]

I think I've ridden about a total of 20..
King's Island Coaster's
Six Flag's Ky Kingdom
and some coasters at a few unknown places...

 

[Bob O]

Dan how was riverview park??? Ive heard alot about it but its before my time.

 

[supercarrie]

Wow - that is a lot of coasters! I have probably been on around 15, but that is only because I am too scared to try a lot of them, lol.

 

[KarenB]

Now wait just a minute......High Speed Thrill Coaster at Knobels????? Is that a "legit" coaster?


Just kidding......I had to chuckle and give you a hard time about that one. I've been on it many tmes.

BTW.....did you make it to Hershey and Knobels yet his summer? If not, I have some nice canned food that you can have for a snack!

[Cindy B]

Wow, we were doing this list in our heads last night...

Now, does "kiddie coasters " count? What about Journey to Atlantis?

We probably have about 40 or so... but we kept losing count last night...

 

[newmousecateer]

Riverview! Wow Dan, that sure brings back a lot of great memories for me.

Every year our whole family on my Dad's side would go to Riverview park and spend the whole afternoon and evening there.

Remember the big genie?

 

[Baboo]

Wow Barry! That's a lot of coasters. You should come up to the Toronto DIS meet August 24. We're meeting at Paramount Canada's Wonderland. They've got some great coasters there. Top Gun, The Bat, Dragon Fire, Wild Beast, Mighty Canadian Mindbuster, Thunder Run, The Vortex, Skyrider, The Fly. My son will happily ride any and all of them with you. Here is the site address http://www.canadas-wonderland.com/
There is more info on the meet over on the Candian Board. And remember that your $1 is worth about $1.50 CDN so you get good value. Kathy

The Woody Woodpecker Coaster is my speed.

 

[cotye]

Cool.. I've only been on a handful...

 

[snuggles]

My coaster count.......1 . When I got off that one I promised myself I'd never ever get on one again!

 

[Harley Chick]

LOL. I thought you were talking about beer coasters. I was going to offer to send you some that I've collected over the years.

which one was it??

 

[snuggles]

The Dahlonega Mine Train at Six Flags over Ga. I was probably 13 or so and that thing scared me to pieces. I'm a chicken and proud of it.

 

[nativetxn]

I haven't counted up the different roller coasters I've ridden, not nearly as many as you, Barry. I'm impressed
