In the middle of the ride one of the other kids vomited and instead of hitting the floor it went all over him and right up against the wall. It then proceeded in a deliberate, vibrating motion to each person opposite way of what the ride was spinning.

It never reached me but I'll never forget the looks of horror on the people across the ride from me as stomach bile and undigested pop corn, hot dogs and sugar candy made its way across the wall as the were pinned helplessly against the delivery system. Water boarding can't be a whole lot worse.

It only hit two people besides the guy who chucked his oats but I guarantee those people had nightmares about that ride.

It was awesome.
They had that right at World's of Fun when I was a kid. It was called the FInnish Fling. The legend I heard about it is that it had to be shut down because someone died on it.
