HAHAHAHAHA
When they had the Q101 Rocket Ride in Chicagoland, people would stand on the seat and cover the plate with their other foot. All sorts of crazy stuff going on cause there were thousands of bikes!!

There are parts of the Jersey Shore where you have to pay for access to the beach. You can't "own" the beach! Nobody owns the beach, man.

All our beaches are public. So the government has to make access road to get to the beach even in expensive neighborhood. I cannot remember who it was, but someone famous didn't like that idea and was trying to sue the government. lol. Just because you are super rich and famous, doesn't mean that you can own everything. Buy a private island or something

I dunno, if I was rich and famous enough to even think about taking on the government like that, I'd just spend my efforts to build a network of long distance public slip n' slides that would take me to my favorite spots.

There are only a couple beaches in nj where you dont have to pay. You could probably count them on one hand.
