    Talking The best seat on certain attractions.........

    Disneyland Railroad.....the front row on the trains facing sideways.
    Jungle Cruise......towards the back, definitely not in the middle.
    Indiana Jones......the rear left corner.
    Pirates of the Caribbean......the rear left corner.
    Splash Mountain...the front, if you don't mind getting wet.
    Big Thunder Mountain....definitely the back.
    Space Mountain.....always have to be in the front. Love the wind effect.
    Tower of Terror.....rear of the elevator.
    Grizzly Rapids......does it really matter, ha ha!!! :)

    My opinion on Indy is the driver's spot! I always act like I steer and everything.

    Space Mountain, DEFINITELY the front.

    Big Thunder, for me is wherever, but the closer I am to the back, the more the goat trick seems to work.

    Screamin', I don't have a favorite. Too afraid to take the front.

    Not that this changes the experience, but I usually prefer the red cannon on Toy Story Mania. My favorite color!

    I usually don't mind on most attractions, but I love the front on Splash and Space. But now that my oldest is tall enough for Splash, we take the double wide seat in the back so I can cuddle and hold on to him

    I agree. Big Thunder is more fun when riding in the back seat. You seem to go down the dips and curves a bit faster, although it takes you longer to reach the top of the hills.

    For Splash Mountain, I like to either ride in the front or the very back depending on how wet I want to get.

    On the Silly Symphony Swings, I like to ride on the outer ring because when you swing it looks like you're going to get flung out into the water!

    On Pirates, I like to ride in the front so I have a better view of all the scenery.

    Space and Splash, definitely the front.

    Big Thunder, the back. The front is too slow and your views of anything ahead of you are pretty obstructed with the train in the way.

    DLRR, anywhere on the train cars facing to the side. Not to be forgotten, any seat on the Lilly Belle. It's all about the experience of it.

    POTC, in the front.

    Screamin' and TOT, the front.

    Soarin', front row since it takes you the highest. You don't have feet in your view.

    Pirates: Front
    Indy: Driver's seat!!
    Splash Mtn: Has to either be the very front or the very back. I don't like sitting in between.
    Space Mtn: Always as close to the front as I can get
    Matterhorn: Always the front
    Thunder Mtn: Definitely the back because the goat trick works a lot better
    California Screamin': I always go single rider on this and always ask for the front.
    Tower of Terror: I typically like sitting in the front here too.

    I like sitting in the front for most things because annoyingly tall people won't be blocking my view of things, haha. (: Even though I'm fairly tall myself at 5'8".
    Sallah, I said NO camels!! That's FIVE camels; can't you count?!

    Asps. VERY dangerous. You go first.
