I know everything about this. You are stupid idiot. It is already FUNDED, BLAH, BLAH, BLAH.” It was funded until it wasn’t. -

Most full service grocery stores will sell them if you ask the butcher, best to call first. I usually cut them in half, slice steaks with half then smoke the other half as a roast and have prime rib for dinner and then put leftovers portion on the slicer and have the best roast beef ever, melts like butter. As to what temp to cook it? As with all things whatever tastes best to you. No wrong answer here. The ends will always be

This topic came up a few years ago and the discussion got rather heated. So I emailed guest services and their response was once the food leaves the window you are free to do whatever you want with it. With the one stipulation that the person the plan was purchased for had to physically be there to order and receive the food. They didn’t mention it specifically but the park probably wouldn’t take kindly to you turning around and trying to sell your burger or salad on the midway. Unless there has been a policy change, and I certainly haven’t seen any indication of one, it is sa

So if the parks are able to operate profitably at 15% attendance the profit margins at 50% capacity in “normal times” must be enormous, but they aren’t. What gives? -

Online Reservations NOW OPEN on KI's Website

We could talk about school opening*, that certainly won’t lead to back and forth bickering. * actually does directly impact the parks. Lol. But merchandise bagging protocols will have to suffice I suppose. -

Three CP employees test positive for COVID 19 https://sanduskyregister.com/news/267036/cedar-point-employees-test-positive-for-covid-19/ Just like the KI employee no specifics are being released.
