Your greatest 'Anticipointment' ?

Post by Zamperla »

A number of years ago, some rollercoaster enthusiasts coined the word 'Anticipointment' referring to an experience where your anticipation is so great (whether from marketing hype, general gossip etc.) then when you finally ride it, you are dissappointed.

What was your greatest anticipointment?

The Mick Doohan Motocoaster by far. The ride had the potential to be really thrilling, and it ended up being a VERY mediocre ride :(

The first time I rode NoLimit. But that changed after my third attempt and the program went intense.

I am there with Hurricane. Mick Doohan Motocoaster is a let down.

Mick Doohan looks a piece of cake I will definitely be up for that one, next time I go.

Yeah, I had a similar reaction with No Limit... but apparently it was still enough to make me scream... But I have no idea where Princess and Matt heard this scream from :lol:

Princess, I'll take you on the Motocoaster next time you come up... you just have to let me know!
