Ultimate MK Record Attempt

[kennythepirate]

My brother and I are about to attempt to break the touringplans record for most attractions in one day. You can follow our attempt at twitter.com/kennypirate. Current record is 55 attractions in one day. We hope to exceed 60.

Good Luck! I will be watching on Twitter.

I was reading about you on Lines this morning so I installed twitter on my Droid just to follow you! Have a fun day!

So, that gives you about 13 minutes to reach an attraction, wait in line, and ride it???

If you can pull that off, PLEASE let me know how!!!

 

[afwdwfan]

I take it from the tweets that attractions include character meets?

 

[bryon]

The real question is....what do you consider an "attraction"?

 

[momto2inKC]

Good luck!

 

[mariepapa]

Good luck! I hope you are picking a day when the parks are open real late. That will give you optimum time to do this.

 

[afwdwfan]

Well, I guess as long as RD and characters all count, they're doing well... already at 20 just 3 hours into the day. Record or not, I do find it interesting, I'd love to try to do it myself once.

We did this on NYE 2009! There are official rules posted here:

We've submitted our achievement and are hoping to be included on the HOF page.

We managed 60 rides/attractions over 19 hours. We used EMH starting before 7am and stayed until almost 2am.

Our pictures are posted here:

Good luck to you! We had a blast doing it!

Wow. I think the most amazing part is that you did it with a 5 year old!

He lasted until almost midnight. He couldn't take the Hall of Presidents at 11:30pm and he fell asleep. I carried him to his stroller for the NY fireworks, then carried him into/onto the Country Bears, POTC & Tiki Birds. He woke up for the final ride of the night which was Space Mtn. So although he wasn't awake for all attractions he did attend them with us!

He was wired during the drive back to our hotel. We didn't get to our room until 3am. But as soon as he/we hit the bed we were all OUT! No EMH for us the next morning. Actually 12/31 was the last day on our AP so we were done for that year!

They are making plans for Ultimate Touring Plans for all the parks. We'll probably try those on our next AP (summer, 2011)

Would have easily made 63 or more attractions, but grotto, pooh's playland and expo hall cutout were missing and some of the little shows like saxophones and woodwinds weren't to be found. Had a great time doing it though!

 

[dlaushey]

Hey Kenny - saw you made another run at it. What was the final count on that one?

Also, we made the Hall of Fame Honorable Mention on the Unofficial Guide - we didn't get full credit for Spectro .

We'll give it another shot in 2011 when we get new AP's!

 

[Carmen Sandiego]

Whoa cool! I go to the parks all the time, maybe I should try something like this (heads over to the Ultimate Touring Plan website)...

You think we could pull it off with 7 people?

haha - good to know you're on the boards David.
