What happened to common sense? If you are going on a roller coaster, maybe it wouldn't be a good idea to have food in your mouth! Sorry if I injected reason into this :) This is a case of somebody using poor judgement and as a result the park has to cover their collective behinds in order to avoid lawsuits. Sigh...

FWIW, I have never been to this park, but I have spent plenty of time at Gurnee Mills Mall (hehe). My in-laws live about 15-20 minutes from Gurnee--we exit at the ramp leading to Great America to go to their house.

Do most 11 yr. olds have enough common sense when it comes to getting on rides with gum, etc. in their mouths? It's one thing to get on a kiddy ride with gum/taffy in one's mouth. It's quite another thing to get on these high-flying roller coasters with anything in your mouth, except your tongue!

And another thing - do kids really read the disclaimer signs posted in parks like these? Probably not........
