The extreme vast majority of single riders that want to ride single on the Zipper or any carnival ride don't have a choice but to ride alone. American culture is toxic, disconnected, and overflowing with default hate of all strangers. Americans don't get along with each other anymore. The entire social atmosphere is confined in closed cliques. Joining in is illegal and will get a person arrested and thrown in prison. "No Single Riders" is in fact designed to keep them completely off. It's the carnival's way of saying; "You're alone! Go back to your mom's basement, or we will put you in your place!"
