Somehow I fell asleep within an hour of this...



I think I would like to go to Cedar Point sometime soon (as if I can afford to) so I took a look at their site a few minutes ago... I have lbs of beef with their coaster rating system... It's a 1-5.. One being you can take a nap here and Five being an arrrrrgressive thrill

First I noticed the Gemini being a 5... and I thought..ooook.. I can see why.. since, if I remember correctly, this thing sounds like it was built in the 1800s and feels like it could snap in half at any moment...



"Gemini has given more rides than any other operating roller coaster at Cedar Point. Since 1978, the twin tracks have taken nearly 82 million guests on the ride of their lifetime."

I'm pretty sure it had shorter lines than the Matterhorn..



THEN this ride is... A FOUR? I don't think this POS maxed out above 35 and it went SLOWER over the hills... an evening jog would be more thrilling.



But again...
"Nealry 62 million guests have ridden the Cedar Creek Mine Ride since its debut in 1969 with 846,716 riding in 2006."
... adding that special near-death experience with every ride.



and finally



I hope they still have Dippin' Dots
