Greased Lightning at the end of the day. Rode it like 20 times in a row.

No question. And frick the gondolas, they looked so cool but once you got in, you realized how boring it was. And it took forever.

Was that a "newer" ride? Or was it that old shitty red roller coaster that was just a bunch of hills and like one drop.

Yep. I remember going when the batman first came out. You were in a standing position if I remember correctly. It was definitely the best ride there. Greased lightning was pretty cool too because of the speed.

ETA: apparently it was spelled "Greezed Lightnin' "

Yeah, that one was cool and it pretty much put the Sky Screamer out of business.

It was blue and it hung from the track, so you were suspended. It was towards the back left of the park. Does anyone remember the pizza/food stand by XLR8 that was operated by little people?

Texas Cyclone was overrated and frankly hurt like hell. It was scary for all the wrong reasons, too.

Batman ride gave me a funcussion, favorite one.

Dungeon drop was really neat too. First time I went on the lady counted down from 10 but sent us down at 7, classic.
