Fanboys. They know exactly how many bricks make up all the buildings at a park. They've never been to another park in their life. They'll fight tooth and nail to find out what next year's addition is as soon as February rolls around. They post endlessly about that new Larson flat ride they're getting as the only expansion for next season. And they will crucify anybody who hates their park's signature attraction.
These enthusiasts can be great park tour guides but on social media, let's be real, they could make anyone want to gouge their eyes out. However, some parks just happen to be a breeding ground for annoying fangirly behavior that any established enthusiast cannot stand. Which parks have the ability to have such an affect on others?
I've got a few...
Busch Gardens Williamsburg- I was on BGWFans briefly in 2012 to follow Verbolten construction and these people are crazy! It started with them getting a guy fired from the park for the plan leak, and it only escalated from there. They had one guy that got banned from the park for jumping fences and hiking into the park's boneyard to take a crap ton of pictures. They were discussing the whole "chip in and buy a drone to fly over the park" option way before that became a common thing. And it took until like February for people on there to fully stop whining about Big Bad Wolf. Crazy bunch of fanboys there!
Cedar Point- Ah, the dreaded CP Fanboy. Their number one is Millennium Force and anyone who says otherwise is wrong. They are the most entitled piece of **** on the planet that will yell at park staff for anything, even if it's during a nice thing they did like Winter Chillout. They'll cover their room in CP posters, wear CP tat to a funeral, and if Cedar Point did it it's either perfect or if it isn't it better be because they're entitled to that. They'll gladly break park rules, they're rude to employees, their kid was conceived at Coaster Campout, and they're just a vile cancer to the hobby for the most part. Now is this true about all of them? No. But does this kind of annoying, entitled attitude exist this badly at any other park? Absolutely not.
Post away! Let's feel the love tonight!
