Enthusiast Outraged

When South-Australian coaster enthusiast Nick Gates yesterday attempted to board Warner Bros. Movie World’s Road Runner Rollercoaster, he was abruptly refused entry to the popular kiddie ride, told witnesses.

“They told me unless I have a kid, I’m not allowed on”, said the coaster enthusiast, who ‘just wanted the credit’.
“I don’t think it’s very fair; I’m not a paedophile or anything, I just wanted to add to my coaster count.”

Movie World staff told AAL that normally everyone is welcome on the coaster, but Mr Gates looked ‘a bit shifty’. “What kind of non-child bearing 43 year old wants to ride a kiddie coaster anyway? I think we made the right decision in denying him entry to the ride. Our number one priority is guest safety,” said public relations manager Yvonne Naylor.

The issue has sparked controversy among the coaster community. “Everyone has a right to that credit - for Movie World to deny this man a ride because he didn’t have a kid is just plain prejudice,” commented credit-whore Eric Hentleson. “This is a complete disgrace. Movie World should be ashamed of themselves,” added a shirtless Hentleson, after finishing an expired jar of mayonnaise which he found in the back of his refrigerator.

Gates has told AAL legal action will definitely be taken against Movie World, and that we should ‘watch the papers’.
