NO-LIMIT: This is a premium ride and will require additional tickets even if you have a wristband.  On a side note, there is a weight limit, which I went over. I was denied entry to this ride.

ALIEN ABDUCTION: Most of us grew up with the name the 'Gravitron' Riders experience the feeling of weightlessness as they are pressed against the wall. I can still handle this one.
