Guest RequestYou might have noticed that we removed the Guest Request Topic from the forum. To be blunt, it was wasted space.
Please, if you have any guest request place your questions in this topic. Currently Brent and Myself are collecting guest names and info for future shows; so don't be affraid to toss any name you want... Season Pass is working back to it's roots.. interviewing Great Guests!!!

It would be great if you guys could get Fabio on the show. I have always wanted to know what it would be like to be hit in the face with a goose.

Would you believe it if I heard him say in an interview not too terribly long ago that it never happened!? WTF, how can you deny that sort of thing? and why would you, really......I mean, the man came off the ride dripping with blood and people saw it........what a doof

Lol I haven't heard of this... Where and when did this happen? lol

Fabio took a ride on Apollo's Chariot in Busch Gardens Williamsburg; I believe it was the media day for the ride in..... uh.... I think 2000... maybe 2001... anyway, at the bottom of the firstdrop a duck flew infront of the train and Fabio got a bloody face full of duck (or goose... I can't remeber poultry... sorry).
It was shocking news, but hysterical.
To get hit in the nose by a giant bird at 75mph... that's funny... Mel Brooks couldn't even come up with that.
There's my sloppy rendition of the incident; maybe someone else can give a more "professional" review of the occurance.

without doing any research on it, off the cuff I am pretty sure it was a goose......and I believe it happened on the way down one of the hills, perhaps the first one.......great now I have to look it up and find out.......

LMAO!!! I shouldn't laugh about it but the thought of that is funny. So after the first drop, he had to ride the rest of the ride with "road kill" on his face lol priceless!

I found some video of the event.
One is real video of it, the other is a recreation.

HAHA! Fabio looks pasty...
Man I suck at reviewing past incidents! It was in 1999 and it WAS a goose... uhh... whatever.
Great Post Wylder!

With all the great interviews lately, I started thinking about who I would like to hear interviewed. There is one name that shot to the top of the list, Don Dorsey.
Reflections of Earth is my favorite attraction, of any kind, at any park. Now that you (Doug) have seen Illuminations ROE, I think you can do a great job of interviewing him.
Don't know if you have any contacts with him, but it would be my top pick for a guest.

I know it is highly unlikely, but you did say anyone
WERNER STENGEL
Yeah, I said it!

His 500th coaster design was Maverick. He has designed for B&M, Intamin, Swartzkopf, I believe even Giovanola. He's everywhere where a coaster is being designed (well, sort of)

That would be interesting to hear Neil Thurman on here, or Marty (forgetting last name) from Knott's Berry Farm.

E.B.If possible E.B. would be awesome! His humor made coaster radio awesone! The first episode I listened to of Coasterradio was one of those with E.B. making humorus jokes and being just plain awesome. I miss his jokes and his comments about El Toro and Patriot Dueling it out[It was too funny! He has a quick mind to make those jokes, some being borderline offensive but he was funny]

Wouldn't it be nice to have Shannon and Mike's wife together on the show. I remember that mikes wife was a jungle skipper. That you get the discussion about how is it to live with somebody that loves rollercoaster / themeparks.

Guest request Stefan ZwanzgerI would like to suggest a guest for your show. Stefan Zwanzger of Mr. Theme Park Guy website. When I first heard about the new Battlestar Galactica ride his site had first photos and on-site report from the area. I later check out his site and man this guy’s goes to all the theme parks around the world. He even goes to ones in construction and his site is so well done he has a pro look about everything. I think he might be a great guest to interview. Also, he got a cool hat. His official site is.

Universal, Bush gardens, Knotts or a other park.

LOL, that would be interesting, because I wonder what it is like for the wives of other theme park enthusiasts. Most of the women I meet who are married to enthusiasts are pretty much just as enthusiastic about their rides as their counterparts. Although there are some notable exceptions. LOL, I know that Urso's HATES rollercoasters, which I find hysterical! LOL
