I'm hoping this will be my first year attending Coasterstock!

Just give it an RMC conversion, and I'll be happy. [emoji4]Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Still on the Giga bandwagon. I'd also take any other B&M as well (except Dive or hyper... cause we have a hyper coaster already. [emoji14]) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The first I can think of is the day I decided to graduate from the general public to become an enthusiast. I don't remember the exact day but it was back in 2013. It was the first time I rode Diamondback, and it was my most favorite ride at the time, with awesome floater airtime. I knew immediately that I wanted to ride more great coasters around like Diamondback. But since Banshee can't drive, Banshee can't accomplish that. [emoji23] But Banshee will try next year as I am wanting to go to such parks like Cedar Point, Kentucky Kingdom, Dollywood, Carowinds, Kings Dominion, and maybe Six Flags Great America. But this is Kings Island. I also would have to think back to my very first visit to the park as a lil' munchkin. My first coaster ever was The Great Pumpkin Coaster. I believe that's all I rode that day cause I refuse to ride Woodstock Express or any other Planet Snoopy rides. [emoji23] But that's all I really remember. One more memorable visit I can think of actually happened last Saturday on closing weekend. I've been a fan of World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) for nearly 10 years now, and have yet to meet any of my favorite superstars. That was until last Saturday at Haunt, my dreams came true, and met my first ever WWE superstar, Nikki Bella. It was a great experience for me, aside from the coasters or other attractions in the park. I waited for nearly 2 hours and passed up riding anything to meet this girl, and it was well worth it. I was hoping she'd stick around and hope to get on a coaster or something with her. [emoji23] But with WWE's busy schedule, she immediately left the park after her little meet and greet. Meeting one of my favorite people at my favorite place, Kings Island, it was just awesome. I left KI that day with a smile on my face. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Seems like people would not be in favor of a Racer RMC conversion. I, on the other hand, would love to see it get the RMC treatment. Now, I'm not going to say Racer is "notoriously" rough, but for me, it is pretty rough. I sit in the front row, and it's okay. It's definitely smoother, but not as rough. The further back in the train you sit in, the more rough it gets. I've had quite a few bad experiences on The Racer. The last row in the train is probably the worst place to sit, as it is the most rough in my opinion. I've also had quite a few experiences when my lap bar has tightened on me going through the course, which makes my ride experience worse. I'm stapled to my seat, and this rough coaster is not helping at all. Maybe I get a lot of bad rides on it, and others get better rides, I don't know. But from my experiences on Racer, I would not mind if RMC came in and did something to it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

A bittersweet weekend to say nonetheless, but still, I had an awesome weekend at Kings Island. It started on Saturday, October 29th when I arrived at the park around 3:00. I started my day by taking a peek at the construction of Mystic Timbers. Then, I ended up winning 2 front of the line passes for Diamondback and Backlot Stunt Coster. I rode those two, plus took a ride on Racer. Then, I traveled my way to Action Zone, where I won 2 more front of the line passes for Invertigo and Monster. I rode Invertigo really quick and headed to I-Street in front of the Eiffel Tower to get in line for the meet & greet with WWE Superstar, Nikki Bella. This was around 4:30. The finally, around 6:30, Nikki made her way to the I-Street Bandstand and signed for the fans, and myself. Also got a hug. Let's just say... I left with a smile on my face. After meeting Nikki, it was time to go back to riding coasters, and I immediately made my way back to Diamondback. Rode Racer a couple more times cause why not? Lines aren't always long. I finished my day with a night ride on Banshee. So I guess you could say that this was my most favorite visit to Kings Island because I met my first ever WWE Superstar. I had butterflies in my stomach all day. It definitely was a #KIBestDay. Now onto Sunday, October 30th. Of course I was going to use my free Fast Lane Plus on this day, even though I knew lines would get insanely long. But I was able to get multiple rides on Diamondback, Banshee, Beast, all my favorites. What also made this visit memorable is that I was on the very last train on The Beast for the 2016 season. It was a bittersweet moment being on the final train, but hey, it was a cool experience! Also made a new friend in line for The Beast before I rode the final train, and he also happens to be a close friend of the person behind the popular YouTube channel, and one of my favorites, Coaster Studios, so I thought that was pretty cool! So to wrap this closing weekend up, it was pretty much the best weekend of my life. Making a new friend, getting final rides, riding the final train of the year on The Beast, to meeting Nikki Bella. It was just pure awesome! Thanks for reading! Sign for the meet & greet w/Nikki outside the front gate. Invertigo lurking behind Chicken Shack. Diamondback at night WWE Superstar, Nikki Bella herself. Last pic of The Beast after riding the final train of 2016. One more picture of the park before I leave... Until April 2017.

I am having major KI withdrawals right now. Is it September 23rd yet?? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Just announced from Kings Island, along with Mystic Timbers and some Soak City improvements, will be the return of the one, and only... Winterfest!! If you are a Gold or Platinum Pass holder, you get into the event FOR FREE! How cool is that? Are you excited? I know I am. I'll be excited to experience Winterfest for the very first time!

Accidental double post. Carry on.

I had a vision last night of a B&M Wing Coaster in the Timberwolf area using SOB's station. Hey, a guy can dream. Sadly, not happening.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I highly doubt we'll see the RMC treatmentSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I see where you went with that [emoji23] It has been fixed, and thank you!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Got a nice panoramic view of the footers for Mystic Timbers. Edit: Apparently I can't spell Timbers lol (fixed) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Anyone there right now who can tell me what wait times are like? Might head out later.

Okay so I just read through at least 35 pages of this. After skimming through and reading a few posts thoroughly, I am convinced it'll be a Giga, but anything is possible.

Food lines are absolutely ridiculous. Yes, I realize that it's the first day and things may seem new but come on. There's just no excuse for this.

ONE MORE DAY! I REPEAT, ONE MORE DAY!! HAPPY OPENING DAY EVE!! (Edit made by me. Original picture: https://instagram.com/p/BEMgoKLuOEt/)

Why thank you!

How can this be? We're only 2 days away from the greatest day of the year: Opening Day at Kings Island!! Finally! We can all enjoy the rides that we have been missing since November 1st in 2015! (Edit made by me. Original picture: https://instagram.com/p/BEEkaG0OOI6/)

Guys! Can you believe we're just 4 days away from the greatest day of the year? Opening Day at Kings Island!! Ah how the offseason has flown by so fast. (Edit made by me. Original pic: https://instagram.com/p/BDjBIm7uOHX/)

Don't you wish you were taking a ride on her right now? Yeah, me too. But we won't have to wait much longer as we are a week/7 days away from Opening Day at Kings Island, and then you'll get to experience as many ride on Banshee as you'd like! (Edit made by me.

Well I guess I'm off on days again. [emoji14] Correct me if I'm wrong on this one as well. The temperatures are dramatically dropping and that's not normal for this time of year. Burr!! We're talking about temperatures in the 40s. But hey, here's a warm thought; Kings Island opens in 8 days!! Who's excited? (Edit made by me. Original picture: https://instagram.com/p/BD1W2HLuOD_/)
