Are you an onride photo kinda person? Do you "act funny" and buy the photo?

I'm a huge fan of onride photo antics! :D

I love doing crazy photos. Here are some of mine:

Me alone on the Tower of Terror:

Me on Dinosaur with my friends. I'm the one in the front row holding the newspaper:

And another Tower of Terror photo. I'm the one holding the Sprite and of course the other people are my friends. We coordinated this before we went on. :D

Yes I remember where they are going to shoot the picture and then make all kinds of faces. I don't buy the photo though, but if the other people do then they have me acting really goofy. :goofy_bounce: The best one's are when I'm riding alone and ride with people I don't know. I walk out with them and just listen to what they have to say. It's hilarious. :lol:

I will have to scan my pic from Splash Mountain a few years ago when I get home! It was me, alone, sitting behind a family of four, and they all look soooo terrified!

It took me awhile to figure out when pics are being taken, but I love to try and guess and make funny/scary faces. What a blast! If they come out real well, we will buy them.

Had an excellent one of my hubby sitting alone in the front row of Splash Mountain. Big ol' bear he is, had his hands tightly grasping the bar in front of him, his eyes tightly shut, and his teeth clenched in total fear! The picture disappeared, unfortunately. :x

I took one with a newspaper as well, except I was on Splash Mountain. Sadly, the newspaper did not survive the splash :P. Great picture though! :D

I always do that strange hand gesture Steven Tyler does when he says "Wait a minute....I LOVE that idea!" on rides. Although the best one was when ToT used to only have the one seat belted seat in the middle back and just as we started to drop I boosted myself off the seat so I got a little extra air and I had my legs out with a confused/scared look and when I actually got to see what the picture looked like it looked like I was actually unrestrained and just floating. I had no intention of doing that but it's how it came out. I'm too cheap to buy it but there were other people there who actually thought I came free from the restraints some how and was floating loose in space....or the Twilight Zone perhaps.

Aren't they all seatbelt seats now?
I never liked the bar for 2 reasons:
1) Minimal airtime
2) The one time I got seated with a very large (rotund) gentleman next to me and I thought I was going to actually die as there was a good 4 inches between my lap and the bar.

Yeah but its not the same type of lap belt. The other was just a belt that was adjustable. The new ones are the self adjusting like they have in test track, like car seat belts.

Oh that's right! Hmmm I wonder how that effects the ride experience compared to the old seat belt seat.
