When you go to an amusement park or fair, do you enjoy the rollerdoasters and the thrill rides or do you prfer to go on the rides that are calmer, such as bumper cars and ferris wheels? I like the rides that spin around, like the tilt-o-whirl or the Scrammbler. I don't mind a rollerdoaster once in a while, but they are notmy favorite.

i am on the extreme side of life so whenever i am in an amusement park...i go for head spinning, stomach turning types of rides like the roller coaster. the adrenalin rush riding with this beast rides is really out of this world, once you seat there, you are having 2nd thoughts if you want to back out but still you are craving for the ride. hahaha... the last time i rode a roller coaster, 2 years ago.

I love rollercoasters. I have actually traveled on vacation to go to other amusement pparks, just to go on some top rated rollercoasters. But I also love calmer rides, but I don't know if I consider bumper cars to be one of the(can we say whiplash...yea I'm getting old). Speaking of getting older, I have noticed that the spinning rides are becoming more difficult to tolerate. I still love them but whereas when I was young I could do one after the other, now I have to take a break after I go on one. How about water rides? I do like the water rides, but it has to be really warm. My sister on the other hand will do a water ride in a heartbeat.

rller coasters are my favorite. the faster and scarier the better. i love the ones in the dark, especially when they go upside down

I definitely go for the rollercoasters. Even better when there are hoops lol.. It feels very thrilling to hang upside down and for me, a themepark is all about riding the dangerous ones. I don't mind riding the calmer rides in between and then anticipate riding those rollercoasters again .

If I have a ride all-you-can ticket, then I will definitely try all the rides. Name it and I will give it a try. But if I'm going to pay for each ride, then the first thing in my list is to try the most thrilling ride. It really feels great when you can scream, its like you've just let go all your burdens in life.
