well i coulden't find the other topic so i decided to make a new one.


I had two more within the past month or so, but i can't remember one of them and the other i can hardly remember.

All i can remember in the second one is that instead of BORG being a flying coaster it was a wooden coaster, and it was like right next to hurler and it was called somthing like star trek: the experience or somthing (isn't that the name of the ride in vegas?) and when i rode hurler the car i was sitting in had a row that was backwards(can you guess which one i sat in??) and hurler had a completley different layout.

i can vaquely remember seeing drop zone, and i remember seeing this one flat ride that i think was in the spot where Scream Weaver is now, but it was surrounded by trees. i didn't go on it because it looked like it was painful ;)



hopefully the other one will come to me.


If sombody else can find that other topic hen post the link here and close the topic lol lol.

It's all too common to have dreams of things you like, love, want, need & long for.

Back some 20 years or so I use to always have dreams of going to Coney Island to ride the Cyclone. And everytime in my dream that I would get there, it would be broke, or I couldn't find it, or I get half way up the lift and it stops, or I wake up! :angry:

The in 1992, I finally went to Coney Island with some friends and wouldn't you know it......we get there (this is mid-June) and nothing is open. Impending storms over the Atlantic kept all the amusements from opening that day. How bizarre that my dream had some actual truth to it.

Not to be outdone by a dream, we went to Dorney Park and drove back to Coney the next day and I got plenty of rides on the Cyclone. :)

I know I've had dreams about Carowinds but it's been so long ago I can't remember the details.

I had a repeat of a dream I had a few months ago just last week. The dream was about Borg (I orginally had it before the ride opened) opening and everybody in my grade at my school was there and it was opening day. I dreamed that we all ran for Borg when the park opened (not unlike how it actually happened on every day I went this summer). I dreamed that although I wasn't first, I did get in the front train. We then went through the ride and what I dreamed the ride was like was scarrily what it was actually like. BTW, the theaming was great. It was like nighttime (I guess I dreamed we were indoors or it was night) and the theaming was very similar to ET at Universal Studios. It was very scary considering I had this dream before Borg opened.

Weird thing is, as much as I love coasters I can't recall ever having a dream (that I remembered) about a park or rollercoaster.

Course I have had experiences of riding coasters all day and going to the hotel and still feeling like I'm riding them! Does that count as a day dream? lol j/k

Yeah when I rode Teennesse Tornado all day long at dollwood for the first time. When I went to the car, I could feel the G's like on my body; Going through loops and down hills. BTW Tennesse Tornado was my first looping coaster.

Here we go again. I've had several dreams about Carowinds. Normally, I have one every month. I've had one dream before were the park closed down for the day and then the next night, I had the same dream except I got to the park when it opened. I've had so many. Most are posted in similar topics like this one. I will post some here in a minute as soon as find them. Check back in the next few minutes for them.

EDIT: Ok. Here are some that I've dug up.

I've had many mrore dreams about PC. Most include Top Gun. I've had several where I would be riding TG, and the harnesses would fail and I would fall out, or where they couldn't get TG to stop and I had to jump off. and another one where TG was at my house! I had sun where PC was in my school gym, or PC was indoors. I've had one where my whole entire class was riding the Screamweaver and the bolts came loose and all of the cars went flying through the air, with me on it. I've even had several whwre I was at PC, but the park was totally differnet. I had one this one time where a certain part of the park was haunted by a witch on the way to TG, but, again, the park was all screwed up and wasn't PC. I've ahd some where Top Gun was on a hill beside my house, and everytime I would be on it riding it, it would stop at the top of the lift hill and I would get off.

More to come in a few, suppers done and I'm starving. I'll just keep editing this post.

EDIT #2 Another one

Last night I had a dream about Carowinds. It was pretty fun, but, the park was really screwed up. For starters, you entered the park from the Super Walmart in Monroe, NC, and you bought your tickets from Walmart. The funny thing about the tickets was that you would pay 20 bucks for a packet of tickets for every day for the rest of ther season.

After you entered the park, which jad trees and hills like Dollywood, you woulld get your own personal golf cart to transport yourself around the park. After my friends and I got our golf carts, we drove straight to Borg, for we have never riden it before. The line was long, so we decidded to come back the next day, since it was 3:30 PM (they do this at Dollywood) and if you enter the park after 3, you get in free the next.

So, the next day we come back and go straight to the borg, and are first in line. We board the train, and I am on the first train, in the first seat to run that day.
The train was really messed up, for the harnesses that go over your head were ropes, and the harness that goes across toy leg was a rope that you set your foot on , and it would some how hold you in. Well of course, I couldn't figure out how to be in the harnesses correctly, and I was flying all over the place as it went along the course. At the end of the course, right before you enter the station there was this long vertical hill that you went straight up and then came straight back down and into the station. Well, the funny thing about this hill was that it was invislible, and was a roper that was clear and shaped just like the track. Some how, I heard the operator say that that invisible track was temporary, and was there on acount of maintence problems. So, as I went up this hill, I was gripping my rope harness for I was about to fall out of my seat. And at the end or this ride, I wasnted to ride it again, but the line was too long. So, we went to ride the Vortex, but, insteadd of being what type it is, it was a corkscrew coaster. But, before we could ride it, we had to take a social studies text for a teacher that I had three years ago. But, I never got to ride the Vortex cause she wouldn't let us out of her class. And then I woke up.

I've had so many. that I can't even remember them all. Oh well, hope that those who haven't read those dew above enjoyed it. I'll update this post if I find or have any more!
