You can't compare the 1970's and 1980's at Kings Island to today. It's
was a different era, much like sports was back then. Today's athletes
are bigger and stronger than they were 15-20 years ago, and they're
arguably better. But you still miss the players you saw back then. It's
the same with amusement park rides. While Italian Job is awesome, I
still miss Bavarian Beetle, Bayern Curve, the Tumblebug and even the
Skyride.
