i didnt think it was bad at all.

i must've looked so dumb hopping on the 1/6. but then again, everyone did!

i loved the space shot. we must've ridden it 50 times in the week. the scariest part is just before you launch and it lifts about 2 feet off the ground, and you know its going to launch soon. the anticipation is brutal!

I didnt think the MAT was bad either. And your right the anticipation of launch on space shot is the worst part not knowing when your going to launch.

The MAT is great. But if you have it after lunch be careful what you eat.

Well believe me i would rather have had something else but this was 11 years ago in late July of 91 before they remodeled the cafeteria. You had verry few choices for meals in those days. I went on it again in93 and 98 and never felt sick again.

Back on topic...

I didn't actually go on the MAT this year. Not sure why I guess I was having more fun quizzing Lyn on acronyms. Anyway there was this inside joke about the word "rotate." We were watching the MAT and this kid walks up and points at it and he's like "Man... something must be rotating!!" and we're like duh! so from then on if we said "rotate" Chris and I just died laughing. It was so bad we barely made it through lunch the next day. We barely made it through the SCUBA lecture! It's just one of those thing where you'da had to have been there to think it was funny.
