why would you wear a hat on a ride with a steep drop and a soaking ending?
Again... I take it off before the drop......

This is actually something Universal has started cracking down on at some attractions quite vigorously. I would guess some of it is due to the video posted earlier in the thread of stupid people entering ride tracks to get their hats. But it may also involve the risk of a loose article hitting someone else or possibly getting caught on a ride vehicle. Either way, I agree that lockers should be present for any ride with that kind of risk.
Busch has been cracking down on rides as well, if they see a phone on you it has to go in a locker or their bins on the other side of the loading area.

Oh about a week ago a phone came about a foot away from hitting me on the head as I walked under that first big pretzel hill thing on Cheetah Hunt. I'm perfectly okay with them enforcing the lockers, but I think it should be free it you HAVE to do it. Forcing someone to pay 50 cents for a locker is like charging to use the bathroom. I think every ride should have the bunk thing they do at Sheikra.
On rides where lockers are necessary, they are free (for a certain amount of time relating to the crowds that day). On JP, lockers are NOT necessary, so they have an upcharge. However, it clearly states that all loose articles including hats and sunglasses have to be secure, so this particular employee felt the need to enforce that rule extra strictly. There's no reason he shouldn't have, maybe he was new and thought it was a big deal, who knows.
I had no problem with the enforcement with the rule. Just wondered why it only applied to me. Probably was the Dolphin hat...
I have actually caught a hat as it flew off a person on the drop on Dueling Dragons and at the end of the ride gave it back to the person. They tried to tip me
Haha this also happened to me, I was going to enter Cheetah and they saw my phone in my hand and told me I needed to go put it in a locker, I wore my coaster shorts that day which have a pocket with a zipper and I showed the guy but unfortunately I couldn't even get in line! I just gave it to my mom who wasn't riding.
