We ended up working our way around Worlds of Fun getting Tanya on
Mamba and Timberwolf and then we were off to give Spinning Dragons a try
before lunch.
Patriot was #47 for Bond, Boomerang #48 and Spinning Dragons, which was
Bond's last to conquer ride at Worlds of Fun became his 49th coaster.
Not a bad count so far as this is his first year really riding.
We ended up getting a truly awesome ride on Spinning Dragons as with Brian
and Bond on one side and Tanya and I on the other the spins were just truly
insane. It took a bit to get my head to stop spinning after we got
off.
Worlds of Fun had a nice buffet lunch for us. At the end of it they
gave out door prizes and then after that was truly a culinary challenge...the
funnel cake eating contest.
These funnel cakes weren't the normal thin variety found at most parks,
no these suckers were at least two inches thick and covered with fruit toppings
and of course powdered sugar. I thought about getting in it but my
stomach said " no" as it was full of pulled pork BBQ and fried
chicken. Oh, making the contest even a little harder was that you
couldn't use your hands...your assistant had to feed you. As you can
see the guy on the end of the table put the rest of the contestants to shame.
