  1. Big hugs Maureen. I wish you well in your new direction. You will be missed.
  2. Here's a tiny video I shot while riding The Beast with my buddy Pete last June. We rode it right at dusk so it's a bit dark. I'm in the white Vote for Pedro shirt and we were in the front car.
  3. Wow, I just watched it. Greg sneaking around in that Hair Bear costume. You know, until I watched that I never realized it was so easy to bribe a Kings Island employee. If only I would have known that back in the mid-80's when I saw that hot blond working the game tent!
  4. Yep Part 1 is now gone too This video has been removed due to terms of use violation. although part 2 still exists (It has a lot of the park footage in it). Run, don't walk if you want to see part 2 before they take it down.
  5. This is the only photo I know of
  6. I don't currently own any KI memorbilia other than a ride photo or two, but when I was a kid, back in 1979, I remember having this four inch metal replica of the tower I bought as we walked out of the park at midnight. I loved that thing. It was always a reminder of the fun and time shared with family and people dressed up as Scooby Doo and Fred Flintstone. I'm not sure what ever happened to that model, but as a child I loved it, it was like I took a little piece of the park home and back then I didn't get to visit as often as I can now as an adult, so it made those memories that much more special.
  7. No Loop?! They're Neutering the Son of Beast!! He'll never reproduce!
  8. I just put 5 tickets up and started it at .99 cents. We can't go and I must sell them, I think they've been bid up to 9.99 a ticket now, but you might keep your eyes on this auction since there is no reserve.
  9. I have attended FearFest for the last two years, and both times on the last day of operation for FearFest. Both times the crowds are very light during the day, we pretty much walked right onto The Beast multiple times, but around 3ish people really start filling the park in. The first year most lines were 2-3 hour waits for the scary stuff, and we didn't do any. Last year I only did the Sleepy Hollow train thing (WHICH ROCKED!) I'll be going again in a few weeks, but I'm probably not going to do the last week and see if the crowds the week before is any lighter.
  10. I'll be surpised if it ever opens again. It seems like a huge liability.
  11. whoa there ... Many images are sent to me and I don't necessarily know where they come from. Just contact me via email and I'll remove and/or credit you, whatever you wish. I'm not trying to rip anybody off, just putting together a collection. The speed is slow because this is just my personal little server, the site isn't hosted anywhere with major bandwidth.
  12. Do you have a contact, or can you tell me how to contact them? I'd love to get hold of one of those maps. You can email me at Rookies@ToppsRookies.com and let me know anything you can.
  13. I've been trying to get an old map off Ebay for well over a year now, but they go for insane prices. I'm willing to pay 20-30 bucks, but I've seen them go for as high at 142.00 dollars. that's a bit more than I'm gonna pay for a map, but I keep my eye open for one to come along at a decent price.
  14. The Patridge Family episode is AWFUL. It barely shows any of the park, and spends most of the episode in the Kings Island Inn.
  15. Thank god! That's the roughest coaster I've ever been on. In fact, I've ridden a lot of coasters all over this fine country and that's the only coaster that's physically hurt me. I couldn't walk right for weeks. I haven't been on Mission to Mars yet. I know, I know... Wah! Son of Beast beat me up. Wahhhh!
  16. Firefox can't find the server at phvrf.yahoo.com.
  17. I just put this on Ebay if anyone is interested. It's a brochure from 1982 celebrating Kings Islands 10 year anniversary.
  18. http://pkiasylum.com/features/pkitunes/pki...0Track%2001.mp3 Found it Holy Moly that rocked! Thank you. Me love you long time!
  19. I don't think I'm gonna go this year. Maybe, undecided.
