If I had a billion dollars..

I would build a few coasters in my backyard - A large wooden one, a hyper
coaster, and an inverted one. I would also install a 200+ foot Drop ride, and a
Sky Coaster :)

i mean, you'll only have $999,540,000 million left.

I think that list of rides would cost a bit more than 460,000 more like 100
mil So perphaps some math lessons with the remaining 900,000,000.

If I seriously had a billion dollars, I would invest $500,000,000 of it on a
brand new theme park including a woodie, a launched inverted version of
MrFreeze (wouldn't that be nice!!), a record breaking stand-up (yeah, like a
foot taller than Riddler, lol), a B&M SpeedCoaster, and many other genuine
spin-n-spew rides. I would get a 200-foot SkyCoaster. And all of this would
be packed into a very well themed theme park somewhere TX where everyone from
miles around would want to come to my park. But then again, I don't have
$500,000,000 to invest, so I can dream, right?

Ok if I had or WON a billion dollars hmm. I would buy one of each coasters B&M
made. A 190 foot CCI woodie and would NOT modify it. A Mr Freeze Coaster. A
Giant Drop. A Huss TopSpin and Frisbee, a Vekoma Air Walk. And other flat
rides. And a Morgan Hyper like Mamba to go along with my B&M Speed Coaster. And
the rest invest in food and souviners stands. How does this sound??
I can dream too.

Give yourself more credit, Dave! An admirable job, if I may say so.
I enjoyed your parody very much. It takes a lot of guts to do the
freefall into uncharted space! ;-)
Which is why you won't see *me* trying to explain the differences
and/or similarities among Spiders, Octopi or Monsters to this crowd
anytime soon! (I probably even screwed *that* up somehow!)

Good one Dave, between Dana's (always top notch) parodies, my coaster
christmas carols, and your new stage debut, we could start a concert
(theres that stage under KW's Swing Around) during the COn.
Ironically, the only place I've heard the "If I had a $1,000,000" song is
at an amusement park, can anybody guess which one?
(HINT: keep a parks visited list ot Coasterville , that should help
narrow it down")
