    when I was little, this was me and my dad's favorite ride, I literally couldn't go to BG without riding. (We're regulars) When I was 9, he died, so this ride has some really good and bad memories. 6 years later, I'm 15, last week was the first time I rode it since. They allowed me to drop rose petals into the water, and I even threw one of his fake pirate earrings that he'd always wear into the water. By the time I got out, I was nearly sobbing. This ride will always have a place in my heart.

    This was the first thing I ever rode the first time I was at Busch Gardens! It also comes with a personal memory of ours: When we went, it was August 2005, the Curse of DarKastle was new, and we all dressed appropriately for the hot summer weather. Mom was wearing a reversible bucket hat that was solid red on one side and white with pale-orangeish polka dots on the other. She wore it on the latter side. Eventually, I found Le Scoot and wanted to go on it. All three of us, Mom, Dad, and I, got in line. Since Mom saw that lots of guys who were boarding the ride had baseball caps on, she thought it was fine to wear her hat on the ride. She was sadly mistaken. When our log dropped down that final plunge, Mom's hat flew off her head to who-knows-where, and she never saw it again. (Initially, she regretted that mistake, but now she says that she doesn't miss that hat the tiniest bit anymore. Go figure!) We purchased two park-taken photos of us about to go down that plunge: one with her hat still on, and one taken mere seconds later with the hat missing.

The guy at the top before the drop got a kick out of it. It started raining as we hit the bottom, an it rained most of the rest of that trip. We got absolutely soaked and while we were miserable all day, it's still funny to tell to this day.

    I remember going on this ride when we would visit Busch Gardens back in the early 1980's (I was just a child then). It was one of the few rides I could handle at the time. I don't think it was called "Le Scoot" at that time, or at least I just remember it being referred to as the "Log Flume". My wife and I went to BG just a few days ago, and we went on this one. She was nervous about riding it, but I told her if I could manage it when I was a kid, then she could easily manage it too. And she ended up enjoying it.

    For some reason I cried. Idk I was just that scared. I was laughing at the fact that I cried but I was crying cause I was terrified. I rode Apollo’s Chariot so I have no reason to be sobbing-

    Me,my dad,and brother loved this ride so much when I was little we always got on it. Once my brother almost died on it tho he was so young and my uncle got on with him my brother was on the back seat my mom was telling "HOLD ON AND DON'T LET GO" we were so scared. But it was fun I'm 11 now. I was like 4 when I got on it

    The first time I went to Busch Gardens, I was too scared to ride it. Now that I know what's in store, I'll definitely give it a go next time I go.
