Yes. I was there a long time ago, back when the Magnum XL3000 (or whatever) was brand new. We're saving that trip for when she is a fan of coasters. Next year we may go to Kings Island. My brother lives in the Nati so we might head out to see him and do KI.
Funny story. Both my GF and I love roller coasters. But had never ridden a coaster like the Wild Mouse. We talked them in to going on that because it looked like nothing.
Skyrush was pretty awesome. I sat on the outside. When I got in the seat, I realized it was only a lap bar restraint and I started to have a mini panic attack. But once it got going, that ride was pretty cool. The Great Bear was probably our favorite just because of how smooth it was. Very fun.
My daughter and I waited in a 45+ minute line for the SDL on Saturday. There was a mother in front of us with her scared pre-teen daughter, the mother spent the entire time in line encouraging her. Behind us in line was a father with his too-cool teenage daughter; the father spent the entire time in line trying to scare his daughter. My 7 year old focused on him.
but she wouldn't go on.
of course you would honey - lolStorm Runner. Went on it once. Wife and kids love it though and go multiple times in a row once the crowds leave and they can just keep running up the steps and get on the next one.

Anyway, my little girl was nervous in most of the line, but when we got to the stairs, she became scared. By the time we actually queued up for a car she was crying... by the time our car pulled up, she was in my arms sobbing. I tried reasoning with her, I tried bribing her, I tried lying to her
We walked right through the car to the exit ramp (well, I carried her because she refused to even touch it at that point). :(
The rest of the family was waiting for us in the shade when we got done, and my daughter just lost it when my mother asked her how the ride was... then my near-deaf father asked her again because he did not hear her answer.
Anyway, I made a break for the mens room only to come back seeing my daughter eating ice cream and wearing an "I survived the super dooper looper" t-shirt. Turns out Granny decided the only way to cheer up my daughter was to buy her the shirt
What a day....
Oh, and on the way out we stopped and watched the SDL from a bridge, and my daughter said "That's it? I would ride that"
That's hysterical. I know exactly what you describe.
