Its two days later, and my legs are STILL killing me....
My kid would want to ride Ninja- and immediately after Batman which is on the blasted other side of the park.....I swear I walked 50 miles.
We did get some very cool carnival prizes- we cheated the system- played the water squirt and whackamole game against each other and one of us had to win cause we were the only two.
We got a huge snake, homer simpson, Gorilla, Monkey, and doberman.

Can't believe all this talk about Roller Coasters and no one has brought up Cedar Point. By far the best roller coaster park - 16 roller coasters. And only one with roller coaster over 200, 300 and 400 feet tall. If you're ever in Ohio, or nearby, its worth the triphttp://www.rcdb.com/pd1.htm
My personal favorites:
Blue Streak
A small older roller coaster, but fun because the bar across the waist barely holds you in and you really feel the hills.
Gemini
Deuling Coasters, nothing really outstanding about its stats, just really fun.
Magnum XL-200
first roller coaster to break 200 foot barrier, I believe still among the fastest, and to me most fun. On the left of the coaster on the first hill there is nothing there, so you can look down 200 feet and not see anything till the ground.
Iron Dragon Suspended Roller Coaster
Unfortunately for me I haven't been there in quite some time and haven't experienced the best of them.
Top Thrill Dragster
420 feet high, 120 mph, and 90 degree angle of descent (straight down)
Milennium Force First coaster over 300 feet, 92 mph, 80 degree drop.
