To find out how many times Delon can ride the roller coaster, we first need to calculate how many tickets he has left after using the 4 tickets for the carousel.
1. Start with the total number of tickets:
\[
37 \text{ tickets}
\]
2. Subtract the tickets used for the carousel:
\[
37 - 4 = 33 \text{ tickets left}
\]
3. Since each ride on the roller coaster uses 3 tickets, we divide the remaining tickets by the number of tickets per ride:
\[
\frac{33}{3} = 11
\]
Delon can ride the roller coaster **11** times.
Therefore, the answer is **11**.
