PaulieGBones

Greetings all. My name is Paulie, I am 40 years old and love amusement parks. I've been a fan of coasters since I was 7 and rode my first coaster at Bertrand's Island Amusement Park in Mt. Arlington on Lake Hopatcong. That park, sadly, is long gone but it started my love for parks, rides and thrills. I remember visiting Great Adventure during it's first season and rode Runaway Train for the first time. I've been going to GA at least twice a year since. For the last six or so years I finally got the season pass and have been hitting the park at least five times a summer. My favorite ride at GA is Nitro. My favorite ride overall is a tie between Wonder Wheel and Cyclone on Coney Island. Oh and just so everyone knows and doesn't think I am nutso, I blurt out things like "I love sandwiches!" and "Buttered Noodles!" for no reason from time to time. I think it's a symptom of pre-occupation of my second love in life; food. Thanks for letting me ramble. Paulie

I rode Skull Mountain during Fright Fest this year for the first time in about 5 years. I completely forgot how cool of a little ride this thing is. That first drop took me by surprise just like it did when it first opened. Great spotlight.

I kinda miss this ride. It wasn't the smoothest or eve the greatest ride but at the time I'd never seen anything like it. I wish they could re-vamp it and bring it back.

This site and the forums are really great. You have some great pics and cool information. I am so glad I found this place.

I Love Sandwiches!
