Theme parks are designed as a place where friends and family can go and have a good time together. They really aren't set up for people to visit alone.

For instance, there aren't any one-seater roller coasters out there. Most times if you're by yourself, there's always that huge empty seat next to you.

So, while most people would never consider visiting a theme park alone, there are a lot of advantages to taking a trip by yourself.

On this week's show, we'll talk about the pros and cons of hitting the parks alone.

Next week, join us as we talk about the Universal Studios 1977 classic "RollerCoaster". We'll be joined by a Washington, DC film commentator and we'll give you the scoop on the fun things to look for the next time you watch the film.

If you do happen to own a copy of the 1998 DVD release, you'll be able to listen to a full-length commentary where we point out interacting facts and trivia about the movie in real-time. If anyone actually does this, we'll be amazed.

After the show, join us in our forums to talk about your opinions. You can also record your thoughts on the CoasterRadio.com Voicemail Line at 206-339-RIDE (206-339-7433).
