Bragging rights.

That's what this is all about, you know. I'm no more or less of a coaster nut because I have ridden 140+ coasters than someone who has ridden only 5. Or 1. Visiting a whole bunch of parks and riding a whole bunch of coasters makes for interesting experiences and interesting conversation with other coaster nuts, but it really doesn't prove anything. That said, some people are interested in this sort of thing, so I figure I might as well present my list.

I've broken it down by state and by park, and along with each listing there is a notation on the type of coaster. More about that at the end of the list. Remember, this is a list of the roller coasters that I, Dave Althoff, have actually ridden. So it isn't a mistake on the page that I show coasters that aren't there anymore, and do not show coasters that are there...it's a list of the rides I've actually ridden. Well, except for the ones indicated with a red stripe. Those rides, I actually made an attempt to ride, but for whatever reason I had to bail out in the station.
