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 major theme park in the midwest. Boy howdy, I caught more people screwing in the bushes than you'd believe.
  • I've had to clean up gallons of puke over the three years I worked there, and a few piles of shit.
  • I've had a dead and rotting raccoon 'pop' on me when I was removing it from under my ride
  • I had a guy threaten me, with a knife, to let his kid(who was way too short) on my ride 'or else'
  • I had a guy drop some drug while waiting in line for my ride and proceed to freak the fuck out to the point the guards had to taze him to get him out of the ride.
  • I had a guy almost get his head removed my the train when he jumped three fences to get to his hat that fell off(He spent 6 months in county for that little stunt)
  • We had a guy jump out of the rafts on one of the water rides because a raccoon jumped in the raft from a tree. That guy also went to jail (Don't make the ride operators hit the E-stop unless you are going to die)
  • We had a small gunfight between rival gangs on the fourth of July
  • We had a member of the national guard(I think) almost drown when they fired up all the pumps on the raft ride (normally only 3/5 are running) when they did whitewater rescue training and he cracked his head on one of the underwater fountains
  • I made a guy shit himself in fear when I worked at one of the haunted houses
  • So much drugs, both use and dealing
  • One bit of advice: don't go on the water rides if you can't see through the water. We were cleaning the big water ride (with a 60'60'120' 'pit') and found a half-decomposed deer on the filter grate

I was at six flags on a realllly hot day, and this dude filled his water bottle up at one of those fountains kids play in and then drank it. He had this smug look on his face like he "beat the system".

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

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.

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.

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.
