Top 10 Best Attractions

What are some of the best non-Disney attractions you've ever been on? It could be a roller coaster, but it doesn't have to be. It could be a haunted house, a dark ride, a midway game, a carnival ride... anything.

1. Best Thrill Factor

2. Best Storyline

3. Best Theming

4. Best Immersive Factor

5. Best Fun You've Had

6. Best Audio-Animatronics

7. Best Humor

8. Best Realism

9. Best Interactive

10. Best Ride Ever

---

Here's my vote:

1. Best Thrill Factor = Xcelerator at Knott's Berry Farm

2. Best Storyline = Revenge of the Mummy at Universal Studios Hollywood

3. Best Theming = Jurassic Park at Universal Studios Hollywood

4. Best Immersive Factor = Revenge of the Mummy at Universal Studios Hollywood

5. Best Fun You've Had = Batman the Ride at Six Flags Magic Mountain

6. Best Audio-Animatronics = Revenge of the Mummy at Universal Studios Hollywood

7. Best Humor = Simpsons Ride at Universal Studios Hollywood

8. Best Realism = House of Horrors at Universal Studios Hollywood

9. Best Interactive = Simpsons Ride (never been to Florida, otherwise I'd say Men In Black probably)

10. Best Ride Ever = (tie) Riddler's Revenge at Six Flags and Batman the Ride at Six Flags (I'm in a thrill stage right now)

What are some of the best rides you've been on??
