  1. You get in to any Cedar Fair park. Last year I went to Cedar Point and worlds of fun.. which wasnt really that much fun lol.
  2. They recorded this in june.. It took a long time to get the camera strapped in, lol. I didnt get to see it on tv, but I will record the next when it comes on.
  3. The guide on the parks site has not been updated for the 2008 season, and does not include the dramatic changes that were made (which mainly involves the boarding pass). Your best bet is to check with Guest Relations and make sure that there is no conflict, because it all depends on the type of cast that you have. I believe the rule is that aslong as it can properly fit in the restraint, and also does not obstruct the restraint, you *should* be okay.
  4. I think many people will be supprised at how smooth the Red Racer is now. I sure was! The red train in the picture quoted above is missing the "Red Racer" logo.. Those are pretty sweet. The seat belts are a little different, the buckle is now in the ceter, and there is a loop that ride associates are now required to check physically, instead of visually like last year. The station still has the Red / Blue storage bins, but thats not a big deal at all. The park opens one week from today... Hope to see everyone there!
  5. Rumor has it that not all of the track on the former backwards racer has been retracked. Also... Last year when I was sent to racer (which was not much, lol), I'd try to make them race as much as possible, because thats the purpose of the ride.. That's not always possible though. Unfortunatly there are times when you just have to dispatch, racing or not. Usually if theres a long hight checking delay, or a issue with loading [or unloading for that matter], you just have to move on and continue doing your job.. I understand that it sucks not to race, believe me, I don't like it either, but like I said, delays do happen. I do believe that this year you will see a lot more racing with change. They have really good supervisors there that will do a great job! Hope everyone is excited to go to the park on april 20th!
  6. It's funny that you mention those names, because I was reading the same thing about the red/blue names. Will we see them return in April? Who knows!
  7. I'm really excited about cinnabon... lol...
  8. This year only the person with the pass, and one.. I did say one, other person can join along.. Still, you will want to contact guest relations, as they will tell you about the policy.. If the wait is more than 30 minutes, you'll have to get the attractions boarding passed (that you got from guest relations) signed by the ride opperator (either at the greeter booth, or in the station).. Still kinda confused on this part, but I *think* there is also a line pass that you can have your party wait in line, and then you get your boarding pass signed, and then the times should work out to where you can ride together.. I'm unsure about that part, but I do know that the Boarding pass is for the person who it was issued to, plus ONE other. Like I also said, be sure to call guest relations before your trip.. They can explain it and help you out more than anyone. Hope you have a great time at the park this year! Can't wait to ride some rides again!
  9. Go to guest relations as soon as you get to the park, or call ahead. They will work with you to assist you with the Attractions Boarding Pass.. You will need this to use the special entrances to rides for people with disibilities (if the wait time allows for such). The rules/accomodations have changed a bit since last year.
  10. Anything is possible especially with the season starting soon... Can't wait to see the good ole' red and blue trains race again this season!
  11. Rides are closed due to many factors in the weather. If the weather effects the braking power, then rides usually go down just as a precaution.
  12. I'll be there, whether im working or not.
  13. Last August was when I first started at Kings Island, and I loved it! You'll get to meet a lot of new people, including amazing co-workers and guests. I love my job and I love helping people.. So I take it that you live in dayton as well 2BMasterofK.I._29? Everyone says im crazy for driving down there to work... but its not really that far and gas doesn't really bother me.. I drive a SUV that gets 18MPG on the highway! :/. Im working at Firehawk again this year.
  14. Drop Tower didn't spin for the last few weeks of operation. I can't remember if it was in late august or september, but somewhere around that time. Hopefully it will spin again this year, but only time will tell!
  15. Welp I wasn't a member in 2006 but my favorite ride (with the options of the time period) would probably be Vortex. You have to love the old threads!
