Spin Off: What are your Ride-as-many-times-as-I-can-rides?

[Mousemommy1]

Tower of Terror and Space Mountain. Possibly Everest too!

I have had marathon runs on both TOT and SM.
TOT was an amazing 11 times in a row before I was just done.
SM was 7 - ouch!

Star Tours, The Haunted Mansion, Pirates of the Caribbean... and, heh, two of my personal favorites, The Enchanted Tiki Room and The Carousel of Progress.

I really, really love those two because, for me, they really embody the spirit of the mid 20th century and the optimism and fun Walt Disney had about the world. It reminds me of when I was a kid, and I loved the "early" Walt Disney stuff. He had a direct hand in making those attractions, and the Carousel of Progress is the only attraction he ever really touched in WDW. I've definitely got a little hero worship for Walt - he's been an inspiration to me since I was a kid, and I could ride those rides all day long, singing along to myself. Who am I kidding - I sing "Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow" to myself practically every day.

I really like the Tiki Room too...at least now that it's been restored to it's mostly original version. I did not like the "under new management" version, so I wasn't at all sad when fire damage prompted a redo. Most people I know think it's boring, but I think it's charming. I also really like the CoP, mostly because of the history it has with Walt Disney. However, I will say, it can get on your nerves when you get stuck in the same segment of the show for 3 or 4 runs in a row. When I went to WDW in 2015, we were in the second show segment and in one of the other segments there was a group of kids that kept standing up or something, just as it was about time for the theatre to move. When that happens, they don't allow the theatre to move and you have to stay put until the segment runs through again.

Ours would be Rock n Roller Coaster, Tower of Terror, Expedition Everest.

 

[tlmadden73]

TSMM, Star Tours ..

Come to think of it .. every "ride" at DHS except Great Movie Ride could be ridden multiple times in one day.

 

[tstidm1]

Big Thunder Mountain Railroad and Haunted Mansion are mine. I'm never able to get more than one ride due to taking midday breaks on my trips. I got like five rides on Spider-Man at UOR because I was on site and could take really short shuttles instead of hour rides back and forth.

 

[sturner324]

Splash, BTMRR
Soarin
Tower of Terror
Everest

All of these I will try to ride more than once if I can. And maybe some others, but I don't want to list EVERY ride. Apparently I'm a thrill seeker...

 

[L&Lfan]

Tower of Terror
Everest

There are others but usually the lines to re-ride are just too long...

 

[KTwiegs]

Everest. hands down

 

[SaintsManiac]

Soarin
BTMRR
TSMM

 

[Gina Starr]

Rides I HAVE done repeatedly: Buzz (14 times on one trip, probably 7 of those in a row on an EMH night), peoplemover, carousel of progress, haunted mansion, big thunder, jungle cruise. Rides I WOULD do repeatedly if it weren't for long lines: 7DMT (was lucky with 3 rides in a row thanks to pre park BOG), Toy story(was able to do 3 times in a row at park opening but the 3rd time was a 45 minute wait and if we did it a 4th it would have been 90 minutes), Safari, soarin

 

[TiggerBouncy]

For DW and I, it's spaceship earth. We will sometimes ask them if we can go around 2 or 3 times. The CM's usually let us as the line moves so fast anyway.

Other rides I could ride more times (TM, HM, BTMR, etc...). However we ALWAYS get on multiple Spaceship earth and the lines fast enough we can usually catch it going in and out of the park.

 

[Sevey13]

All of them?

In MK - Splash
In Epcot - Spaceship Earth
In HS - Star Tours (and I have done this one over and over!)
In AK - If I could live near the tiger enclosure...

 

[princess_ariel_85]

For me it would have to be Splash Mountain (Keep riding whilst I still can until it inevitably breaks down and I can no longer go on it ), Everest and the Haunted Mansion.

 

[absolutmey]

Space Mountain for me. Expedition Everest for DS.

 

[VACamm]

Me.... Peoplemover
Husband.... Living With The Land
Son 20... Star Tours
Son 13.... Test Track

We could do these over and over and over and over and over

 

[GaryDis]

None of the above.

I don't recall ever being able to justify more than a one week (ten day) vacation to WDW. And that simply isn't enough time to see everything. So I would never treat anything as ride as often as possible when there's always something else to do that I haven't done yet.

That doesn't mean there are no rides that I'd repeat. Usually that would be opportunistic - I see that there's no wait, and nothing else at that point in time that's on my list. Especially if my plan has a predictable gap - say 30 minutes before I need to show up for a dining reservation, and a break on the People Mover would just work out. Or hey, it's dark out, I rode BTMR earlier, the line's short, let's see what it's like in the dark. When I was younger, I might want to hit both sides of SM, but I know now that that's pointless; the two sides aren't different enough. If we're lucky, and manage to revisit a park on a second day for the same trip, I'd obviously redo rides - but that's not with any goal in mind nor is it part of planning.

But I would never start out by planning, as a goal, riding any ride more than once. Well, maybe, just maybe being able to see both live segments of GMR, but now that I've seen both, riding that twice is no longer on my list. Beyond that, there are just too many other things to see for the first time that trip to budget time for a repeat visit.

 

[Pixie Dust ✨]

Haunted Mansion
Tower of Terror
Space Mountain

 

[I loveStitchnippyjon]

My #1 is Kali, followed by Buzz, PeopleMover, and......STITCH!!

 

[JRennie]

Everest! I purposely schedule an entire morning to dedicate to this. Ride everest 4 or 5 times, get and ice cream and repeat. My husband thinks I'm nuts.

 

[NYCANC]

My kids can ride Buzz over and over. I think in October they must have been on it at least 25 times. I know there were a ton of the pics in MM!
There was no line one night when it was open until 1am.

My DH and I stopped riding it and they kept on going on it!
