July 20, 200917 yr I believe the 1 millionth rider on SOB was shown on the evening news and got a gift basket of some sort.
July 20, 200917 yr Yes Maybe a sign, with pictures being taken everywhere. being on the news. a big ceremony with a t shirt.
July 20, 200917 yr T-Shirt. Media Attention. Photos. KI Insider Blog Post. Jane Vellez Michealles. Just kidding about the last one.
July 22, 200917 yr So, for those who may not know, not likely, The 1,000,000th rider got a sign and a couple of pictures. Also, tons of applause but thats not really an object hahaaha. Also, i found it interesting that going up the first hill, DB has a sensor to tell where there are empty seats. So the count was exactly at 1,000,000. Not counting the empties! just a little fun fact!
July 22, 200917 yr Diamondback's 1,000,000th. I believe the individual record currently goes to Darlene Bell with over 500 rides.
July 22, 200917 yr I read from a family relative that Jim got a t-shirt and hat as well as the sign and bragging rights
July 23, 200917 yr I almost have Darla beat ahhh if only swim team finals wernt this week or I would be there everyday this week but all I have is Friday and Saturday well and maybe Sunday.
July 23, 200917 yr Actually, her name is Darlene. And no, you wouldn't beat her this week. She is well over 500 rides, probably around 550-ish. You've got a couple hundred to go, which wouldn't happen in just a couple days.
July 23, 200917 yr Well, your sig. says you have 362, thus needing only 138 more to get to 500. But, you said: "I almost have Darla beat ". I was making a point that she is well over 500, and you would need almost 200 more to have more than her, and it wouldn't be happening in just a couple days.
July 23, 200917 yr well no matter how much time you spend thre this week, you have no possible way of even getting close to beating darlene.
July 23, 200917 yr Yes this week I might only get 30 to 35 rides with all 3 days combined. Do you try to experience anything else while you're at the park? 10 rides per day on Diamondback eats up a pretty good chunk of the day.

July 23, 200917 yr UHHH. I dont think so I went to ERT on Saturday and only got 3 in??? I've got five rides in on ERT and I rode The Beast twice so I do think so.

July 23, 200917 yr Author Well I guess thats because I went on Friday and Saturday (Saturday ERT) but that was on stupid Joyfest
