Do Jews love Theme Parks?

PardonTheWait · 28 May 2008 at 23:21

Every time I go to Thorpe Park, there's always loads of Orthodox Jews there. By loads, I mean probably between a quarter and a third of the people there are Orthodox Jews.

I seem to remember seeing a lot of them at Chessington and Alton Towers too, but that was a fair while ago, and I think my mind is playing tricks on me since I noticed them all at Thorpe Park!

So.... are Jews natural thrillseekers, or is Thorpe Park in a very Jewish area?

I honestly hope it's the former

They own it. Rich ****ers.

This is how Hitler started out iirc, saying there were too many Jews about.

I used to work at Thorpe Park many years ago, in a hotdog stall near loggers leap.

Aaaanyway, once a large group came over and asked if the hotdogs contained pork, I was naive (read: a bit thick) and didn't click why they wanted to know. I looked at the ingredients and nothing about pork so served up a ton.

They went off looking pretty chuffed with their lovely hot dogs and it was only later I looked down at the big box and noticed in big letters, "PORK HOT DOGS" on the front. Whoops.

Few of them going STRAIGHT to HELL. sorry.

i think they're natural thrill seekers - must be hard to replicate the 'will i die/won't i die' thrills experienced last century.

at a guess they organise big coach trips in and they just stand out a lot. Also Jews love rollercoasters. I love the image of them all whizzing about.

I did ponder whether maybe there was a just a big family that wanted to go on all the same stuff as me in the same order....

LMAO at these posts

I remember reading in a paper once that a group of Muslims had bought out the whole of Alton Towers just so it was only their group there.

Loving these sterotypical threads today. Jews love theme parks because they hang about by the rides in the hope money comes out of peoples pockets.

Niagra falls. Whenever I know some who has gone I just say ' did you notice all the...' and the immediately reply with Jews. Dunno why they love it over there.
