I'd love to have a modern reimagination of Phantom Theater back around. I get that Peanuts theme's would take the priority there, but the hit of nostalgia with some upgrades would be extra cool.

While recordbreaking is awesome and all, I agree with you SonofBaconator. I'd rather have quality over quantity in that regard. Give me a super thrilling experience that is well thought out and not something thrown together for the sake of "records".

I'm going to reserve judgement as of right now until I ride Orion, but I personally have to lean toward Banshee without that factored in.

Big fan of the idea of a dark forest with Action Zone. Use that theming on a hopefully new ride for the future. Overall I just miss theming at the park in general, because I feel its lacking heavily in areas. Rivertown feels like the only spot that really has anything going for it on that front.

While I love the idea of having a frontgate coaster, I also don't really "need" it per say. I think you'd have to do it correctly, and while I trust they could, the real question is if they "should". I'd love a front of the park coaster that is right by the gate that isn't Invertigo though. Would personally love a ride that went in and around Timberwolf a bit.
I would love to see a new front gate in general, maybe update it with contactless/personless admissions booths.

Seems like it should run fairly seamless as far as the app goes for reserving your time.

^ Rivertown needs a good flat ride back there. One would have been cool where the new Haunt building went.
As much as I agree it could use a flat, I would love to see a dark ride of some sort end up back that way.

Well Adventure Express would have fit the original theme of the areaish around it. King Cobra, AE, Lion Country.... Then it went Actiony and the theme got lost...
Still Love the theme regardless. And I'm realizing as I type this that the comment is from June. I guess I haven't posted in a while, just been reading. haha

Very cool! I've been hoping for an event like this to come down our way at some point!

^ I wasn't in the park at 01:45, though I wish I would have been.
Did you disrupt those actually sleeping, or were you focused on the stragglers outside tents or hanging out by Round Up?
I was actually in my tent when the whole thing started. Next thing I knew the speakers were blaring creepy music.

I'm pretty sure that Walmart was just the first store that came to mind for camping supplies after midnight. They had extra space, so they were inviting some non-campers to camp out if they had (or could get) the gear. (To be clear, this wasn't publicized or announced.)
The event was a lot of fun. The park was very generous with complimentary admission for non-passholders, and attendees enjoyed free meals and exclusive access to Frontier Town after 8:00pm. Walking through silent midways packed with tents was a sight to behold.
I hope to attend next year (assuming they do it again) and actually camp out in the park.

Did you enjoy our 1:45 special visit? I was already out cold when it started.

I mean regardless, you'll end up having to make it the Approximately 1 Millionth rider.

I'm curious as to how they know the exact number of riders Banshee has had. Is each train counted before being dispatched? Every train has at least a few seats empty.
Correct me if I am wrong, but I believe most of the newer rides have a computer system where you hit a button for each vacant seat, and thats how they calculate.

I would love to play Jenga with the ride!

Got a campsite, pretty excited to get to go to the park for free for 2 days. Sucks I got a site on the concrete though. haha. Just means i'm gonna use that extra cash on a fast pass.

I wouldn't think you'd prop up the cars that way for general maintenance to be honest. So agreeing with the bandwagon and saying parts are the answer. Seems like they may be keeping the cars up because of a part that may hold them up.

Just to bring this topic back up, the information was sent out today with all of your guidelines to the campout! If you're going I can't wait to see you there!
-
I blame Vekoma. Its their fault I tell you, they're sabotaging other manufacturers! haha.
-
At KI I remember waiting like 4 hours for SOB on opening day. Other than Banshee, its the only other opening day I've ever attended for the park or a ride.
-
had it for the first time today! SO GOOD! Would recommend to anyone looking to eat in the park.

In the arcade, don't see them anymore from here.

News chopper flying overhead. They did let us back in the arcade though, so that's good.

Park staff, and they are coughing pretty heavily and sweating pretty bad. Some very concerned faces.

We were just cleared off if the side of coney mall that the trucks are on. A couple more staff members came out looking rough.
Sounds like they are cleaning a lot of coney mall out though.
