Stand Your Ground

A couple of weeks ago, a bunch of friends and I went to Six Flags!  Of course, we went on a Saturday--the WORST day of the week to go!  But, nonetheless, we all had a spectacular time!  Usually waiting in line for 2 hours for a 2 minute ride super stinks!  But we had a large group of 8!  Perfect for chatting and making the day go by quickly! :)

Anyways, you probably know that line-cutting at an amusement park is "not allowed and is cause for removal from the park."  Even though this is the rule, many people ignore it and jump ahead of hundreds of people to meet their friends.  I have one word for this--LAME!  And even though everyone hates it and wants to stop these line-cutters, no one has the guts to!

UNTIL NOW!

We were waiting in line for Roaring Rapids, a super not good idea at 4 pm!  Anyways, as we're waiting towards the back of the line, 2 middle school aged girls start passing people to "meet their friends."  But then Boyfriend steps up...blocks the path...and says "No cutting!"  The girls then proceed to stand there and explain that their friends are waiting.  Boyfriend then continues on..."I don't care...you're not cutting.  So go to the back of the line before it gets longer...I'm really serious.  You're not cutting.  I'm not kidding..."

At this point, I'm about to pee in my pants because I'm laughing so hard!  Yes, I know you're supposed to be all serious when people are getting in trouble, but I always have the exact opposite reaction for some reason!  WHOOPS!  Anyways, some other people in line start backing Boyfriend up saying "you're not gonna win, you do know this right?"  The childrens finally head back to the end of the line, scowling the whole way!

And a new HERO is born!  Cheers to Boyfriend for standing up for what everyone else wants to do!  So take note...don't let people walk over you just because you want to be nice.  Right is right.  Everyone has to learn that someday, so it might as well be now!

Don't let the line-cutters ruin your amusement park fun-ness!  Stop them in their tracks and send them packing!  STAND YOUR GROUND!  :)  Not only will you get on the ride sooner, but you'll have a super fun story for later!

"Have a Six Flags Day!" :)
