Rockin' roller coaster. I was 5. My dad had to pin me in the seat with his elbow because I was so small.

The Wabash Cannonball at Opryland.  My dad dared me to ride it.  Then he didn't join me! :)

The Robin side of The Chiller was my first:
Steel

Lots of firsts, one ride.

Did it have the OTSR's at the time?  If so, you have my sympathy.  (I remember it well....)

It sure did.  That was way back in '99. My head is small, so I didn't suffer too much, lol.

My first looper was the EXT at Worlds of Fun, with a cast on my broken leg, no less, Summer '87 or '88. Took me at least another year to get the courage to try another one (Orient Express).
