7* It's been discovered through some videos that it's possible to do some crazy things to some rides. For instance, a VERY short Double-Decker Observation Tower with some scenery surrounding it is grounds for a very exciting ride on par with mid-tier roller coasters. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x8ZZrmV2oXg Video here]]
8* A [=YouTuber=] discovered a few funny tricks that are rather absurd in the game, but work nonetheless.
9** He's managed to beat Forest Frontiers [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hL8xp2sKF2M by only using four tiles]].
10* Another [=YouTuber=] managed to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ZGbztLs_tg play the lottery by drowning a bunch of guests, then using the six surviving guests as the lottery number]] ... and won.
11* If you name a ride "YourMom", the guests' thoughts about it will become pretty funny.
12-->"Your Mom looks too intense for me."
13-->"Your Mom was great!"
14-->"Just looking at Your Mom makes me sick."
15-->"I'm not paying that much to go on Your Mom."
16** In general, people have a ''lot'' of fun with the [[HelloInsertNameHere naming]] feature.
17--->"Dying was great!"
18--->"I'm not paying that much to go on the moon"
19--->"Just looking at your face makes me sick!"
20--->"I can't afford a ride home"
21--->"My Ass looks too intense!"
22--->"I want to go on something more thrilling than a rocketship."
23--->"I can't find my shoes."
24--->"Your car has crashed!"
25--->"I'm not going on your car, it isn't safe."
26--->"I've been standing/queueing for the exit for ages."
27--->"OY ITS A SHAME I 8 MY KNEE was great!"
28--->"Watching paint dry was great!"
29--->"Bitcoin has crashed."
30--->"I want to go on something more thrilling than THE FRICKING TRAIN! DUMBASS."
31--->"I'm not paying that much to go on drugs"
32--->"I can't wait to go on drugs again!"
33--->"I'm not going on drugs. It isn't safe."
34--->"An Acid Trip was great!"
35--->"I can't find my wallet."
36--->"I can't find my marbles"
37--->"Just looking at my report card makes me feel sick."
38--->"I can't find my laundry."
39--->"Just looking at my bank account makes me feel sick."
40--->"I can't afford a loan."
41--->"I can't wait to go on an existential crisis again!"
42--->"A MushroomSamba was great."
43--->"I can't wait to go on a [[JustForFun/TVTropesWillRuinYourLife TVTropes binge]] again!"
44* If you're using [=OpenRCT2=] to set up a Mini Golf and use the Tile Inspector to delete the track piece or turn it the other way, the guests will explode upon stepping onto that tile. The way they end up doing so, it almost gives off the effect of [[LandMineGoesClick them playing a round of golf in a minefield]]. [[labelnote:Explanation]]The game treats Mini Golf as a tracked ride like a roller coaster, and uses similar mechanics. The guests appearing to walk around are actually riding an invisible vehicle, which can crash like any other. In the original game, the tile inspector didn't exist, so there was no way to have an incomplete Mini Golf to see this happen at the time.[[/labelnote]]
45* The official social media page (Facebook and Twitter) occasionally posts a lot of funny posts.
46** [[https://www.facebook.com/rollercoastertycoon/photos/a.158928407532672/4224580767634062 Big Brained Idea]]
47** [[https://www.facebook.com/rollercoastertycoon/photos/a.158928407532672/4185160494909423 MONSTER TRUCKS!! WE LOVE MONSTER TRUCKS!!!"]]
48* The Merry-Go-Round control failure breakdown, which causes it to accelerate to an absurd speed, and eventually start jolting up and down. Even the music speeds up! Although [[UrbanLegendOfZelda contrary to popular belief, it won't explode if not fixed in time]], there are [[WasntThatFun some strange people who come off having enjoyed it even more than normal]].
49* People get sick ''from the HedgeMaze''.
50** Guests can get lost in ''any'' maze; even if it's only a single tile and the exit is [[FailedASpotCheck directly in front of them]], guests will often jump to see over the walls to try and fail to find the way out.
51* Guests will do ''anything'' to get out of the rain, and buy umbrellas for extortionate prices without hesitation, with the manual encouraging taking advantage of this. [[TheCon Unethical]]? Probably. [[GameBreaker Cheesy]]? Kinda. Hilarious? Yes.
52* Peeps in ''3'' [[NighInvulnerability can't be killed in any way]], including drowning or on crashing rides... so naturally, cue sadistic park-owners coming up with [[VideoGameCrueltyPotential all kinds of creative ways to torture them]]. To name a few? Sending them flying by crashing rollercoasters into them, putting them on blatantly unsafe rides, throwing them to lions and tigers in the ''Wild!'' expansion pack, and even using holes and terrain blocks to bury them alive.
