  1. Was you working this past Thursday cause I thought I saw you on FOF. It was about the middle of the day and you kept checking your watch. I was going to say hi when I got in the coaster, but you was gone. Then I thought I saw you again on Zephyr on Friday but wasnt sure. I thought the nametag said Matt. I happened to stroll thru the Shrimp Shack during Media Day and noticed Spongebob there so I posed for a quick photo, then spongebob turned around and wacked me upside my head with his own head. As we started to leave I saw Forrest Gump so we posed for a picture with him. I snapped alot of great pictures and will have them up as soon as possible.
  2. TRTR was running when I was there Thursday and Friday. When we went into the last antechamber the door began to shut and one of the ride ops stood there just looking at us as if he would never see us again so I waved and he waved back lol I sat in the front row and had one of my best rides ever on it. I was even splashed in the face by the lava. The only thing I noticed was the statue's eyes wasnt working. I thought I remembered last year at the end of the ride while it was still in the dark, the eyes would light up and shine out...Both times I rode it, they wasnt working. I also noticed the op station, I always thought it was behind the top spin not in front of it...
  3. Yeah I dont think I'm as worried about it now. It was supposed to thunderstorm around here all day and it mostly did in the morning. Thankfully it cleared up and is actually mostly cloudy with a few pockets of sunshine... Coaster-King, yes they only close rides if its thundering and lighting, but it was calling for thunderstorms which could be severe. Look for the guy with the short hair, wearing either a white Golf Discover shirt or a faded Son of Beast shirt. Hopefully I notice some of you guys at your stations.
  4. As some of you know, I leave from Louisville to Kings Island tomorrow for my 2 day trip. After noticing the cold front has stalled out, I knew it wasn't good. We have storms all day and it has been raining most of the day out here. I checked the weather for Kings Mills on Thursday to see that it was going to be in the lower 70s and T-Storms for the entire day. I was planning to do all my coaster riding on Thursday and hit the water park on Friday, but if thunderstorms are rolling through all day then they can't run the coasters. There are no shows going on so I feel like Thursday is really going to be a mess plus my girlfriend has caught a nasty head cold. I'm still heading up there and just hoping for the best...

    haha, I think I know what he means....
  6. yay! I wasnt even going to ask about that, I wonder what the food will be like...hmmm I have to try it out when I'm there Friday...
  7. haha, one more thing I will miss by one day....
  8. Thats great!! I make sure to buy a copy when I'm up at PKI this week. Thanks!
  9. Crispy, you live in Louisville as well?? My g/f and I are going up to PKI this Thursday and Friday. We bought 4 One Day passes all for 80.00. Its such a great deal and saved us alot of money. We're hoping to hit up waterworks friday morning or so, hopefully the weather stays nice and I wouldn't think the park would be that crowded, more so on Friday than Thursday.
  10. I got my two day pass for 40.00
  11. Thats good to hear. There is nothing worse than a guest breaking the rules and nothing being done about it.. Cheers to PKI

    Wow, its a good thing I pushed back my annual trip from the 7th & 8th to the 12th & 13th. I knew that Beast Buzz with all the coasterbuzz members was having their event on the 7th and now not only is it bring a friend day, but also schools will be there. Sounds like alot of fun, hehe!
  13. Anyone have a clue when this movie opens? Since I'm missing out on all the shows, I'm hoping I can atleast see this movie when I go up to PKI. Atleast the new lapbars for SOB will be in place when I go.
  14. ^^Those are some good points. Even though I haven't been on SDATHC, I have to go with The Smurfs. That ride was just great, I can still remember that queue and the boat house. I would always get alittle dizzy walking on the rotating floor to get on the boat. Then the actual ride itself was relaxing and such a sight. Those was around the time that the family would take a yearly trip up to Kings Island. Where my older brother would rave about The Screamin Deamon and when I rode my 1st roller coaster, The Racer. I remember lifting up in my seat so high that my brother held me down, haha!! Wish I could still get airtime like that on The Racer. ahh memories, Phantom Theater was a great ride, but it wasn't the smurfs. I have a feeling that although I will like SDATHC, I will think Phantom Theater was better, but who knows..
  15. Great report! Do you just escort the costumed characters around or do you still dress up?? I remember when I was around 13-15, ( hard to believe that was almost 8 years ago..) I wanted to get a job at SFKK as a costumed character, but for some reason I never did. I can only imagine the heat inside during the hot summer days...

    ^^^ LMAO...Yeah I thought the same thing...
  17. Yeah anyone that is going to deface property can't be in their right mind. I'm 22 and I wouldn't do that. Basically its best to avoid conflict in tight crowded spaces. It can just turn into a big mess. Find a Ride Op or a Security Guard and let them handle it. Besides tearing up things, I dislike line jumpers the most. There is nothing worse than waiting in the hot sun for a long time and see a group of punks just cut in front. By the way I'm glad to be back on this forum. I doubt anyone remembers me as I posted around the same time last year and posted quite a few pictures on the board. I see alot of the same crew is still around and that teenageninja has been made a mod which he does a great job of keeping things in check. Overall the site looks great so props to Aaron... I will be making a TWO Day trip June 12th and June 13th..It was going to be during the weekends, but I like to avoid the crowds. When it becomes closer to trip time I have to get some of your names that are on Ride Op Crews or whatnot and say hi!
