  1. I do believe that KI will open on Good Friday which is April 14th. I see Media Day being the Morning of the 12th which is that Wednesday. With Gold and Platinum Season Pass Holder Preview being Thursday April 13. By my understanding the Mystic Timber trains as of right now are scheduled to start arriving late January to early February!

  2. Kenton's Cove Keelboat Canal to Holiday World and Splashin' Safari. And they could theme it more to the park. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. Planet Snoopy and all water rides are closed during Haunt hours. Everything else will be in operation! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. I agree completely! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  5. I would love to see this but they just spent some money on upgrading all the turnstiles ( I guess just gates now?) and adding big TVs as well. I just don't see this happening within at least the next 2-3 years. Cedar Fair's CEO Matt Ouimet in an interview posted on YouTube said that there would be no new front gate at Kings Island. Also the front gate was renovated back in 2014 when Banshee opened! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. I see a full rehab along with new LED lights! After all Cedar Fair and Kings Island has said that they will be slowly upgrading Coney Mall over the next seven years! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. Brief explanation if those want to know between public and private companies http://www.investopedia.com/ask/answers/162.asp
  8. Cedar Fair stocks are traded in the the stock market. It's listed as "FUN"!
  9. Picnic Grove is used almost daily for things like birthday parties, wedding receptions, company outings, Kings Island special event lunches and The Haunt all you can eat dinner!Also I think KI just remodeled it either last year or during the off season!
  10. Moonshine running themed coaster?Grit your teeth, Bear the load Enjoy your ride... Smugglers Run!
  11. Not sure what you're talking about when you say RMC doesn't have a twisted drop. RMC built Storm Chaser at Kentucky Kingdom. It curves left right off the lift hill straight into a spiral first drop!
  12. Well. Kings Dominion has a floral tunnel. But yes without the vines it looks pretty much like that. If KI turns this into a floral tunnel that would be AMAZING. Because honestly KI needs to work on its appearance. (Just look at tower gardens...) Kings Island grounds crew has planted several vine type plants spaced several feet apart from each other at the base of the two tunnels!
  13. Don said the exact same thing during the train ride! But he had a smile as train passengers was taking guesses on what is going on!
  14. I asked Don about the fountain getting LED lights like Canada's Wonderland and Kings Diminion. And he replied that it will happen but there's no timeline on when.
  15. I do agree Maverick doesn't valley much. But last fall it valley out during morning testing on a cold and very windy Friday. Iron Dragon did the same about the same time. It was during Halloweekends!
  16. Not completely correct. If Skyplex is built in Orlando Florida it will be just over 500ft tall. And for what I saw of the animations it is traditional chain lift. But I'm agreeing with others. There needs to being a mass clearing soon or I will change my mind!
  17. My last visit to Kings Island The Beast was stopped on the lift hill cause a guy in mid train lit a cigarette. He got to ride but when the ride was over he was put in the kids corral to wait on security! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. It might get removed eventually but I don't see it being this year! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. I've seen security just a matter of feet behind a guy smoking and nothing was said. The park management should be notified!
  20. At first I was thinking that if they did this most of the Dinosaurs would just have to be scrapped. But I started looking at the satellite view of the park more and suddenly realized this could work and an advantage of doing it this way. Entrance, ticketing, etc would be where the old funnel cake stand was. I took a screenshot from Bing Maps and really quickly threw this together. Would allow the park to use the back end of the picnic grove for Birthday parties etc next to the Dinosaurs and they would easily be able to have a second entrance which would be private just for people who are there for the party. If this were to be done I would move the maintenance and storage buildings which are currently next to The Racer down where they have been moving the dirt around behind Banshee. Opens up the entire corner of the park for expansion and allows a path to be built from X-Base over to where the current entrance to Dino's Alive is.
  21. There will be a winterfest at California's Great America. Cedar Fair announced it when the announced that they will be expanding CGA over the next several years after land purchase. Personally I would like to see KI bring theirs back. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  22. I seem to agree that the indications are for a coaster. Right now what clearing we have seen may be a logging company taking down trees that are deemed valuable! Heavy equipment can be brought in to do a mass clearing in a very short time!
  23. Thanks! KI is my home park and I love to see what others have to say on what is going on or think is going on!
  24. Found this on my computer from one of Cedar Fair's annual releases last year. I have seen this and Cedar Point has already did the ride removal for this year. Kings Diminion looks to be getting the coaster referb since they announced that their wooden coaster would not open this year! Do I think this can possibly be a B&M Giga Coaster? Possibly! Cedar Fair is good at keeping to what is important to their parks. And Kings Island's center piece is the Eiffel Tower. Placing a new very tall ride of any sort would keep to that. Right now only time will tell!
