Ive been 50+ times, never did steamboat/tom sawyer rafts island because it seems pretty boring and a large waste of time,plus we try to only hit MK in the evening to avoid the large day time crowds and heat, so those attractions are usually closed by the time we get that deep in the park. I can ride a steamboat on a real river, why ride a fake one an waste time?

After they added the new carts that really lock you in place, Space mountians been pretty tamed down. The old carts had a metal cage an you were loosely strapped down with a seatbelt. Then it was scary, you would fly several inches off the seat with every drop an get mashed against sides on every numerous turn. I miss that

I'm not so sure your facts are accurate. The WDW version of Space Mountain has used the same push-down restraint for as long as I can remember.

Dan are you having short term memory loss problems? Just kidding, I also am only familiar with the push-down restraints.
At the same time, I have never had a sore neck, back or side from riding Space Mountain.
Very accurate, the new carts resemble DL matterhorn carts. Old carts were back in the mid 1990s.

Hey, I never want to say "YOU ARE WRONG!!!" when I'm not really sure of my facts. I don't remember WDW's SM using seat belts at all, but I defer to Snake's memory on this.

Dan, read my whole post. I even said I was just kidding. I didn't remember the seat belts either.

I remember the seatbelts. Early 80's. Bench seats in the middle, and there was one belt for both people in the cart. I really felt like I was going to fly out. Of course, I was like 5 so I could be wrong.

I've been to Disney World 14 times and I've never had a Dole Whip because I always forget to try one.
I've been to Disney World _three__times and haven't rode/tried Tower of Terror because I'm a wimp.

I just wanted to make sure you knew I was kidding.
Hey now, the last time I rode it I was 32, lol
At least you own it!
OMG,can I admit that I thought it was decoration to!!! As a result, I've never ridden it either
One more for good measures:
I've been to Disney World _three__times and haven't rode/tried Pandora, TSL, or GE because I haven't been to WDW since 2016.

To update this, I did ride Space Mountain for the first time last week. I will never ride it again. I'm glad I did it, but once is plenty for me.
RRC now officially replaces it on this list. It is unlikely that it will be replaced.

This was a hard one to come up with, had to mentally walk through the parks and go ride by ride.
I've been to Disney World 20+ times and haven't rode/tried Astro Orbiter, Speedway, or Tom Sawyer's Island because they just never seemed worth it as an adult.
As kids the Island had lizards, which was a 'No' from Grandma, the Astro Orbiter was the same as Dumbo and there weren't enough adults for all the kids to ride Speedway at once.
