Top 5 Roller Coasters in the U.S

     Theme parks are the best place to go for a fun and heart racing roller ride. Most teenagers like to go on roller coasters but there are ones that don't. For example, me. I went to websites, asked friends, and more and here are the results. Here are the top 5 with a little bit of information about them.





1. Millennium Force, Cedar Point (Sandusky, Ohio)

Since 2001, Millennium Force has been voted the number one steel roller coaster in the world eight times in Amusement Today's Golden Ticket Awards, and has never been ranked lower than number two since it opened in 2013. Millennium Force has switched the top position with Bizarro.

2. Bizarro, Six Flags New England (Agawan, Massachusetts)

Bizzaro has been voted the number one steel roller coaster in the world five times in Amusement Today's Golden Ticket Awards, and has never been ranked lower than number two since it opened in 2013. Bizzaro has switched the top position with Millennium Force.

3. Nitro, Six Flags Great Adventure (Jackson, New England)

It opened on April 7, 2001 as the fastest roller coaster inn New Jersey and the tallest on the East Coast of the United States. It has been ranked number three  in Amusement Today's Golden Ticket Awards best Steel Roller Coaster every year since 2007.

4. Top Thrill Dragster, Cedar Point (Sandusky, Ohio)

It was the tallest roller coaster in the world, before being surpassed by Kingda Ka in May 2005.

5. The Voyage, Holiday World (Santa Claus, Indiana)

The Voyage holds several records, including most air-time of any wooden roller coaster. In 2006, the Voyage won the award for Best New Ride at the Golden Ticket Awards. the Voyage was also ranked as the Best Wooden Roller Coaster by the Golden Ticket Awards from 2007 through 2011. As of 2012, the Golden Ticket Awards have ranked The Voyage as the second best wooden roller coaster in the world- a title it also held in 2006.

I will be making a post about the new roller coasters in 2014 but here is a link to a video on YouTube that has a few of the roller coasters that i might do reviews on http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vkDLUExgI3A&safe=active&noredirect=1.
