Fat is as fat does I suppose! I know that sounds stupid but c'mon....Holy crapus!! How do you allow your children to weigh in at that un-god-ly weight. Seriously. And then of course take NO responsibility. Ah, good to be an American, right?

So now the park has to play guess your weight, and order you to sit in a certain position, so if you are too heavy, the raft won't tip? I'd like to see how that will work. I can picture the fighting.

"Must be this tall" "and not a fatass" to ride this ride. That sign would work on airplanes as well.

These fat people will probably try to sue.

They should be arrested for letting their kids get so fat.

I bet they do sue. The judge should award them a lifetime supply of twinkies...

If the lifeguard at the top of the slide would have told them they are too fat to get on the ride, the family probably would have whined to the media and tried to sue over "discrimination". Disgusting.

What kind of failure of a parent lets his kids weigh in at over 225 lbs anyways?

The typical 400-pound Riviera Beach Moon-Cricket weighs...well, about 400 pounds. If they closed down the Kentucky Fried Chicken establishment, then the Negro's might loose some weight.

The only problem with this is that then the porch-monkey's might not have anything to do with their time; there are only so many fast food restaurants to rob in West Palm Beach!
