"Tower of Terror" Voted "Best Ride"

This is not a surprise, at least, not to me.

A non-scientific online poll of visitors to the Theme Park Insider website has resulted in Disney's Hollywood Studio's "Tower of Terror" as the Best Ride in North America. It beat, in the final face-off, Island of Adventure's "Spiderman" roller coaster ride.

I've been on Spiderman. It is thrilling, but as with many rides in many theme parks, one does not have any emotional attachment to it. They put you on the ride and off you go. Tower of Terror, on the other hand, is an ATTRACTION in the best sense of the word. The theming and story-teling are impeccably done. It is why it is my most favorite attraction in WDW. It is also why the version at California Adventure is so disappointing.
