Cedar Point all the way for me! I grew up about three hours away so summer wasn't complete without a trip to Americas roller coast. I would recommend to stay away from the Mean Streak unless you want a whiplash induced headache.

You ever hear about how someone lost a hand on the Mean Streak? It's a horrible ride. My body just can't handle wooden coasters.

Never heard that one, but the only wooden coaster out of the three there that I ride is the Gemini. It's probably my favorite coaster there.

People keep telling about that. I definitely will have to go.

My friend told me about the Beast at Kings Island, though I have never been, yet. But what's the Son of the Beast? I don't think anything can be as bad as the Mean Streak. I would like it, if it wasn't so rough.

It's really bad if you ride all the way in the back car. Killer on the back.

Someone lost their hand on the Mean Streak? Are you kidding me? When did this happen? And it's still open?

Mean Streak is the best wooden coaster I have been on. You have to appreciate wooden coasters as a genre to love it though.

People who get hurt on coasters are, for the most part, dumbasses who weren't following the rules.
