  1. Welcome to KI Central! 1. Yes they Do, And the price varies depending on what you get. Its not just the little keyhole photos anymore.. 2. Yes, They vary from 8 bucks and up. Once again, depending on the package you get.. 3. not sure on the Locker rental. I never use them 4. The earlier the Better especially this time of year. If you get there right at 10, you should be good. Especially on a weekday... Your Son will have a blast! Kings Islands Planet Snoopy hasnt been rated the best kids area for no reason.
  2. I hate to Hijack and ask a Non related question, But what is the Weekday Daily estimate of Park Guests who Enter the Gate at Cedar Point Vs. Those that enter the gate at Kings Island? Im fairly Certain that Cedar Point gets more Guests on a Daily basis, But to the Tune of Each major Coaster having a 1+ Hour wait on a Tuesday Afternoon? Just Curious..
  3. Kings Island If you really like something, you'll want more of it. ^^^ Posted on Facebook with a Pic of Diamondback under it. Im sure Im reading too much into it....Or Am I?? ^^^
  4. I just wanted to chime in real quick. My Daughter is about 47.5" without shoes. We have a pair of shoes that put her right at 48 that she wears. she also has a pair of flip flops that put her right to 48. When we took her last time to get measured, she was wearing the flip flops and they made her take them off before the measured her. Therefor, he was just under the 48 for a wristband. I however put the flip flops back on and we promptly got on racer after a height measurment with flip flops on and she was good to go..If your wearing shoes, they dont make you take them off. So if your son/daughter is right at the 48" mark, Make sure they wear shoes with a little bit of a sole in them so they can make the mark..
  5. Small Footprint, Huge Thrill! I Love this Little Woody. Move Evel Knievel/American Thunder to Kings Island!
  6. I Know it Dosent do this anymore because of the Stabilizer bars that have been added, But ive been kinda scared of this ride ever since ive seen this video. Look at 1:30 when the Cars darn near Crash into each other. I cant believe Cedar Point even opened this ride like this..
  7. Beast at Night, In the Summer, After Rain, In the Front seat is the Absolute Best Ride Ive ever had!! I do Love Diamondback though...
  8. ..And thats brings back the whole Conversation as to whether Kings Island can actually Have a Coaster very much taller than 300' due to the proximity to The Airport.
  9. I really Don't care what it is as long as its "Fluffy" Friendly..
  10. ...I believe the Correct Name would be, "Thunder Dirt"
  11. While in Line for The Eiffel Tower today, I was wearing my Son of Beast T-Shirt.. Op: "Hey Nice shirt!" Me: "Thanks! Really wish it was still around. I was sorry to see it go" Op: "Yeah I know, Well, Whats replacing it is gonna be awesome!" Me: "Oh yeah? What have you Heard?" Op: "Racer Mach 2 is opening in 2014. Its gonna be a racing Steel Coaster that will be almost 400 foot High" Me: " Really?!?! Where did you hear that?" Op: "Ive heard people talking.." Sounds Like the Dippin Dots Guy is up to his old tricks again....
  12. Cool! Thanks for the Info. Now, Back to the B&M/Vekoma, Super Mega, Ultra, Looping, Wing Riding, Mega Inverted, World Breaking, Crazy Awesome Roller Coaster Rumor Thread..
  13. The Concrete Pillars That are between the que that leads to Adventure Express and right beside the slingshot launch area, are those the Pillars for the old Monorail or did it have something to do with King Cobra? Probably been answered before, but I cant remember,,,
  14. Glad to see Ed Alonzo's show is coming back for 2013. Very Enjoyable show!
  15. i dont have a problem with them Sprucing up the Fountains a little bit. Add some Led lights and put on a Cool show synchronized to music at night time with them.
  16. When we rode Adventure Express, The Side access door going up the hill was wide open letting daylight in and the Majority of the Lights in the tunnel werent working...
  17. I can imagine Don is reading this forum and laughing his butt off! Lol.. But seriously, this is very exciting. It'll be awesome to see what this summer holds as far as what we see pop up.
  18. 3:05 pm.. Waited an hour and 15 minutes to ride Diamondback. Beast line backed up to Larosas. Busiest I've seen it in a LONG time.. Waited 40 mins in boo blasters...
  19. Hate to rehash an Old topic, I have just been informed Via Email that old souvenir cups will not be allowed to be refilled this year. Cups are 13.99 at the Park, 9.99 if you buy them online and u get free refills the day you buy it and .99 cent refills til the end of the season... Once again, Greed..
  20. I wouldnt Mind some Orange Accents on The Beast. The only Drawback is it with the existing Brown of the Wood, It would looms like a Cleveland Browns themed coaster... And that... Well, Lets just say it wouldnt bode well for the Cincy area,
  21. (My 1 Angry Blog Post..) Ok, So expand the Fast Lane program, And take away the program that allows you to earn perks for freebies... Selfish..
  22. Racer Definitely! Bring it back to Its Red, White and Blue Glory! And while your at it, Bring back the recaR!
  23. That's because most people "get it" when it comes to Fastlane. You, clearly, do not. No, I Fully "get It" Do I "Agree" with it? Well, that answer is obvious...
  24. Wow! I never realized I was so much in the Minority on this issue. Of course when I Say "Spit Upon" I didnt mean it Literally, I ment more in a "Ha ha, I get to get in front of you so Neener Neener" Kinda way. I drive about 35 Miles each way myself, and Ive learned that Waiting in Line at a park like Kings Island is just to be expected. People shouldnt be Given the Option to pay extra Money to get in Front of people. Thats just my opinion and it always will be. Its Nothing but Greed on Cedar Fair's side and It puts the Normal park goer in a "2nd place" position behind the Fast Lane users. In Response to the criticism about my comparison to Fast pass at Disney, Yes it may be just "Included" with park admission, But Say Disney Included a "Fast Pass Plus" that allowed people to pay extra Money to get in front of the Normal Fast Pass users. That would be screwing over both the Regular people waiting in line and the regular fast pass users. Im going off on a Tangent, but you see what Im saying... Once again, I know Its a Business and I know they need to make Money. But I would take Satisfied Customers who are happy with the product and tend to come back and spend more money as opposed to people who come and spend a whole bumch of money once and never come back..
  25. I Apologize for my post about the WhinePass but thats just how I feel about it. I know Cedar Fair is just a Corporation and the #1 Priority is Making Money, No Matter what they may say. It just infuriates me. I Always Use Disney as a Perfect example of How a system like this should have been Implemented. Use your park Ticket/Season Pass, swipe it, and return at the time printed on your ticket. No Extra Charge and a big service to its Guests. All FastLane does is Reward people for having the ability to pay extra Money to Cut in front of everyone and spit on the ones who couldnt afford it. And dont spout the whole, "If ya cant afford one, dont buy it" garbage. This does nothing more than Increase the wait times for the ones who are already in line. I will NEVER Buy one of these things... Once again, Sorry for the Rant, Just voicing my opinion. Im generally a Go with the flow kinda person, but this just gets me..
