Golden Ticket Awards always seemed to be part truth, part politics, and part revenge. You either have to be drugged or struck across the back of the head to think Dudley is the best water ride in Toon Lagoon, let alone that park, Orlando, or the world. (For what it's worth, my vote goes to Grizzly River Run)
They seem to point you towards good attractions or places, but not often the 'best'.
