sorry South Hills High football is much better than San Dimas football, we've won CIF 4 of the last 5 years! Beat that!!
"San Dimas High Football Rules!" is from the movie Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure. It's the first thing I thought of when I saw "San Dimas" in an earlier post. that, and "Strange things are afoot at the Circle K, Dude"
It's funny, that was my first reaction also.
Please keep your arms and legs inside the vehicle until the ride comes to a full and complete stop. Thank you, and enjoy the rest of your day here at Walt Disney World.

And the actual park referenced that started this was the one that Napoleon goes to in the movie I think. When I read Raging Rapids in San Dimas CA I just thought "WYLD STALLYNZ!!!!!!!!!!!" <Air Guitar>


Getting back on topic I love both TL and BB and both are great waterparks compared to others - although between them I still like TL a little better I think.

actually, they dumped Napoleon at Waterloo.

and as Bribren said, we have a few water parks around here, but none of them compare to TL

I've been to Typhoon Lagoon, Blizzard Beach, Wet n Wild, Adventure Landing (in Jacksonville), and a few local waterparks in the Chicago area. TL is number 1 with me, with BB coming in 2nd. I'm a huge advocate of clean waterparks, and no one can compare with Disney in this area.

I think that BB and TL are the best I've been to. I liked BB better though... more exciting slides.

Yes good ole river country. Why did they close that down anyways? I heard it was something about the water being too polluted?

They used the water from Bay Lake/seven seas lagoon to feed the slides. It's kind of hard to Chlorinate the whole lake..... though I could be wrong, I wouldn't be surprised if they got a few "Critters" visiting that water park.... The critters with long snouts and sharp teeth.... probably why they closed the lake for swimming too...

Hey everyone, I'm not a big fan of water parks myself. Something about having to pay all that money to stand in a line, go down a slide, then have to wait back in line again just turned me off. Plus I'm a really shy person, and having everyone watch me go down the slides freaks me out. (Bad Stage Fright as well).

But my wife loves them. So I want to take my wife to these two parks badly. But will I enjoy myself? Or do you have to love the big water slides to love them? Also, how bad IS the big slide at Blizzard Beach?

I won't do the Big slide at BB... Scares the crap out of me.. (and not to mention where my bathing suit would end up after the ride down). Typhoon Lagoon has less big slides (is bigger too) than BB, and is more relaxing. So If you like the exciting slides.. then BB is for you. If you like the hanging out in the wave pool or floating in the little "river" that surrounds the park.. or even snorkeling with the fish... then TL is the one.

hope that answers your question

When my brother was last down there at the Polynesian, they had signs up about not swimming in the water.
