Favorite Ride of 2002: As far as our two rides went, the Turnpike beat the Old Mill by one vote. Other favorites included Exterminator, Phantom�s Revenge, Racer, and Sky Coaster. One individual was more specific sighting their favorite ride was the Turnpike when the power is out.
Kennywood Song of 2002: We have a tie for first place! Uh-oh! Obviously, one is Heaven and the other would be�any song played by the Kennywood band! (Although Zoot Suit Riot and Brown Eyed Girl were cited specifically). As for songs played over the speakers, favorites included In the End and What�s Love. And let�s not forget Nighty Night and Shapoopie.
Favorite Turnpike Car: First place went to car 20, followed by car 3, then a mix of various others (17, 11, 2, 1, and 19).
Least Favorite Turnpike Car: First place: 14. 2nd place: 20. A mix of third: 4, 19, 6, 11, and 1.
Favorite Field Chair: It was no contest � �People� got every vote, except for one.
Least Favorite Field Chair: Based on the results of the last question, it�s safe to assume that we don�t like �Bug�.
Favorite Rotation Position: �Drive� received the most votes, followed very closely by �controls�, then �video�, then �tickets�.
Least Favorite Rotation Position: �Video� was number one, with �load�, �unload�, and �tickets� all tied.
Favorite Boat: Boat 9 took this category. There were a few stragglers, namely 1, 7, 2 and 8.5.
Least Favorite Boat: It�s the boat we all love to hate, 9 once again wins. Although 8.5 was a very close second, and the stragglers 4 and 1.
Favorite Shift (letter)*: Surprisingly, �A� was voted favorite shift�I mean who doesn�t love a good 12-hour day? In a three-way tie for second: �D�, �B�, and �OFF�. Coming in third was �C�, and with absolutely no votes, �E�.
Least Favorite Shift*: Again, our least-favorite favorite: �A�. �C� and �E� came in second, �B� and �D� tied for third.
Favorite Cleaning Duty: Apparently, we like to sweep the track�it takes at least 45 minutes, after all. Next, we like cleaning cars and sweeping exits. And someone enjoys sweeping out the scenes�
Least Favorite Cleaning Duty: We don�t like pulling weeds, bailing boats, cleaning boats, sweeping the track, cleaning under the mill, and a whole bunch of other crap that would take up a lot more room, but you get the picture. And someone thinks that scuba diving to the bottom of the mill to scrub it would suck.
Favorite Guest Response: There are the ever-popular responses to �How many do you have�: �Yes, All of us, This many�. Then there is �My baby doesn�t count as a person�, �When did you make this stupid partner rule�, and �What do you mean my child needs a ticket�. And let�s not forget �You mean this front/middle/back�. There were a few specifics to certain people and I�m curious to know about a few of them. �You look like you had fun last night�what did you do?�, �Have a good day working�, �You 16-year old bitch�, �What do you mean the water is real�, "I want the real manager" and �Thanks, you too.�
Favorite Way to Pass time in Field Chairs: The number one way to pass time in a field chair: singing! We also like to watch stupid people come out of the tunnel, check out members of the opposite sex, sleep, style our hair, and yell �hey� to see if peoples names are Hey.
Favorite Closing Time: Other than never opening, rain closes are popular, specifically 3-4pm. We also much prefer 10-10:30 as opposed to 11. And that�s a real 10, not a 15 minute 10.
Favorite Drink to Carry With You: Water wins! In the heat of the summer it�s cool, refreshing, and great to throw at each other. Other favorites include Snapple, anything in a Pepsi cup, and Ricky�s Gatorade Ice.
Favorite Cafe Food/Meal: Mmmm�who misses the grill? We miss grilled cheese, steak and cheese, and taco salad the most. A few of us also miss the cheese fries, gyros, GCS, mashed potatoes w/ gravy & turkey, and strawberries.
