I don't like being that guy who walks around and stands in line by himself. It's very awkward lol
This is not my signature.

Always been tempted, I can generally convince my girlfriend to come if there's a zoo nearby though (most of the smaller UK parks have zoos). :D

I did at Cedar Point when the rest of my family was done for the day while I stayed out until close. It was sorta awkward actually, and then I ran into a random NoLimits user and rode Mantis with him so it wasn't all bad. But still mostly awkward.

I always go with/take people with me. They usually want to go anyway so it's no matter.

I hate going to parks alone. Sometimes I go to my home park alone, but since I also work there, I am still not entirely alone because I know a lot of the operators.

i dont mind going to parks alone , unless i can get another enthusiast to go .. you dont have to ride a boomerang or a deja vu, you dont have to convince anyone that wooden coasters are safe, you dont have to wait in a long ass line for a brand new ride that will be there next time and probabally is as lame as it looks.. etc..

Then you aren't alone.

Yes, it's only awkward for the first few times and then you get used to it and I can usually just strike up a conversation with random people in line.

I have never gone to an amusement park alone. That's pretty much invalid to any conversation though, because I can't drive..

Yup, When nobody has time and I feel like going to a park I just go there by myself. Especially on really quiet days it works perfectly, just keep on riding coasters with my mp3-player on. Barely getting off the coaster. xD

On busier days it occasionally ends up with a conversation with some random people in the queue. Or I end up meeting some other friends, who aren't rollercoaster addicts, but just happen to be in that park that day... (Yes, I've had that various times. [lol])
Coastercount: 1410 (I've seen the world and it's horrid contraptions... @.@)
