What theme/amusement park would you rent out and bring all your friends to and why? I think I would rent out either Islands Of Adventure because it's just awesome or maybe Cedar Point because it's just got the most wicked rollercoaster selection and it's got the onsite hotels like Islands of Adventure. I would also consider SFGA, SFGADV, and SFMM!

Sif Flags Great Adventure, SFMM, Cedar Point. Just because of the amount of coasters each one has.

Dang, tough call. Gotta imagine the best rides all in one place...

Gotta be SFGAdv, Indiana Beach or Islands of Adventure. Dont know though, so many coasters I love.

I would actually like to buy out (not rent) SFOT ... for one purpose. I would fire half the "show" staff (crapola waste of real estate), clear out the land, and bring in a few new coasters to feed my joy.

But, if I have to rent something out I would rent out PKD and close it on one day except for invited guests only. (Folks like Real, Nightride, JonBKChill, thecool326, Edge ... etc. LOL!)

i'd definatly rent out PKD. i thought about cp, but the rides there are good, but not outstanding. i loved every ride at pkd except shockwave.


and don't gey pissed at g-force.. although he's responsible for countless polls, this could actually lead to some constructive conversation.[:D]

It cost the Company BT here in the UK, ?????????2 million+ To rent out Alton Towers for 2 days.

I would rent CP of course...as its a park i've never been to, and a park i have wanted to go to since when i first started loving coasters. Plu sno queues at CP...mmmm, screw the atmosphere...when there is no queues it makes me happy. I remember going to Fantasy Island and there was about 10 people in the park...man i was happy, this meant i didnt have to waste several hours of my day queuing for rides

SFMM, CP, IOA and BGT.
That would just rock having a theme park to yourself and all your friends.

SFMM or CP...probably CP just because I've never been there, although IMO the lineup of SFMM's coasters is much better. (X, Riddlers, Goliath, Viper, Deja, etc.)

I would also like to rent out PKI just because of the Beast, the POv I saw looked awesome! I would also love to ride Son of Beast because its a hyper woodie and has a loop.

For me, my fave park is and will always be Alton Towers, so I guess I'd rent that out for use by me and selected mates. BUT I would also have about 2000 other people in the park, but they'd be remote control or something and would never be in the same part of the park as me and my mates, I have reasons for that and they are as follows [lol]:

Sure its great when you just walk onto a ride as there is no queue, but that feeling is made all the sweeter with the knowledge that there is people in a massive queue somewhere else in the park at the same time. I found this out yesterday at Alton Towers when walking onto Nemesis twice in the space of 5 minutes knowing full well that at the same time, the queue for Rita was more than 2 hours long.

Plus, there is no better sound than hearing 30 or so people from across a theme park, screaming with joy as they ride a coaster, with the undertones of a big B&M roaring around its layout at the same time.

But you can be damn sure that none of those 2000 people qould be fricking chavs! ..... unless however I was renting out a themepark that had a ride called "Suicide ride" or something of that nature [lol] Or even easier, just a big lake that I could have them all thrown into ..... so yeah, AltonTowers [:)]

Hell, If I could just rent out any park, that'd be nice... Well to answer the question, I think I would rent out the Santa Cruz Boardwalk, and It would be just me and my girlfriend. You know, Giant Dippers got the love tunnel and all, that would be romantic... Then we go up the lift, drop, go into the fan turn, and slam into her breaking our hips... and then... opps killed the romance there...
