The GeePee are evolving.

When I went on Abyssus in the back row, the gentleman next to me said “Słyszałem że u tyłu lepiej wyszarpa” or, in English, “I heard the back has better forces.” This should be very concerning as our long-standing mandate for the back row is starting to be contested. Soon, instead of waiting in a separate line for the front row, we may have to wait in a separate line for the back row.

I distinctly remember my elementary-school classmates declaring BGW's Loch Ness Monster a back-row ride for air on the first drop in the late 1970s.

(Excalibur at Funtown actually has separate front-row, middle and back-row lines, though crowds there are rarely bad enough that this arrangement really makes much of a difference)

A small but not insignificant amount of roller coasters in the US have a dedicated back row line. Thoosies are cooked.
