Almost flew off a 100+ foot water slide because all four of us on the raft shifted our weight simultaneously; with the help of the current, we jetted up the side of this slide and came VERY close to getting tossed over. Whew, good times.
Once when I was about eight years old, my family went to Schlitterbahn for a day, and I was bringing back some tasty chicken finger with fries, the seagulls decided to band together and knock me over, spilling fries and chicken nuggets every where. Needless to say the French Fry Seagulls Bandits stole every single fry.

Doesn't that water have an ass load of chlorine in it?

my friends and I had gotten on a spin, swing ride and some fat guy insisted he would fit. He obviously didn't. So he held us up for 10 minutes before he was escorted off the ride.

I used to work at a small amusement park so I have some good stories, my favorite being the angry parent story.
So the ride I was running was one of the small roller coasters meant for little kids. Now this ride was unique for the children's rides because the child had to be a certain height to ride it, meaning I would have to measure kids and turn them away if they were too short. So on this particular day, this ride was super busy and by busy I mean I had twenty kids who refused to go ride any other rides for my entire shift. They just kept getting off the ride and getting right back in line, for hours. Now this guy comes up to me with his two older daughters and his young son and asks me if his son can ride the ride. I measure the kid and tell him that he is too short and can't get on this ride.
This. Parent. Flipped. the. fuck. out.
He picked his kid up, walked over to my ride's entrance, kicked the gate open, placed his kid in the seat, looked me in the eye and said "now run the ride" in front of everybody.
So, I ran the ride. Watched his kid bob around in the seat a bit since he was too small, but he was otherwise alright. None of the other parents said anything and management never brought it up.
