Fine, LARGE CF EASTERN PARK. KI is arguably (and in my opinion) the second best CF park, and it would draw a larger crowd.

Wow, thats something I'd expect from Terp

Anyone going this Sunday? first day for me this season.

I am so glad to see this actually getting a decent amount of replies, I really enjoy reading them. Especially @McSalsa

I honestly want a Giga, and I see it more plausible due to the fact every other easter CF park has a Giga, plus IF TALLER MUST RIDE!!!!!!!!!!!

If you were ever afraid of them. (I sure was, didn't ride racer till I was 12) For me, it started last summer when I went with my youth group in early June. I went with 2 good friends, one I saw for the last time since he goes to a different high school. (this was my first time going to KI for 2 years) Rode Beast, Bat, and Invertigo for the first time, we were going to ride Banshee, but we chickened out. However, The Beast sparked my interest in roller coasters, and I watched a crap-ton of POVs and Coaster Studios, if you haven't seen him, sub to him now. I went to Universal for 5 days with my family, and there were no lines for half of the days. It was roughly 8 and my mother who was the only one with me said I had one more ride before we went back to the condo. I said I wanted to ride the Dragon Challenge, we walked up to it and I tensed and my mom, who hates roller coasters due to motion sickness said she would ride it with me. The wait was "5 minutes", God, it takes longer to get to it than The Bat. We rode on the blue side (forget what dragon but it's the less intense one). And thats were most of the fear left, I rode the Hulk with my older sister the next day. Anyways, I was pumped to go to KI again, so I saved up $200 over 3+ months to get me and my dad season passes to KI, we used the free day for 2014 and he pushed me to ride every ride. Started with FoF and had some awesome ride attendants. ("hey do you guys want a countdown? Ok, 5,4,3 *launch*) got on Firehawk in 15 minutes, rode Beast, then my dad wanted to get on Diamondback. This was probably the most scared I had been for a roller coaster, but my MANLY MAN INSTINCTS told me to not show weakness. I was squeezing my lap bar so hard on the way up. I had a blast though, same with my dad, he hadn't been on one so tall since SoB in 2005. After that, my fear vanished, I'm planning on going to CP this summer, and can't wait. Anyone else got a similar story?

I saved up to buy my family season passes (just to let you know, I'm an underclassman in HS) for the first time in around 8 years. Took about 4 months of chores and mowing lawns. I hadn't been for a while and came back last year and got over all my fears of roller coasters because my dad forced me out of my comfort zone and had a total blast. Anyways, I am going to go 5-10 times this year, and want to know the best routes to ride the most coasters/thrill rides. (P.s. except Drop Zone, I hate Drop Towers)

I mean a regular straight drop that doesn't curve.

Hey, this may be off topic, but behind Gigas and Hypers, Inverts are my favorite kind. However, why do B & M inverts seem to never have a normal drop, I mean Invert Shuttle Coasters do to an extent (talking about you my first looping coaster). Banshee is currently my favorite rollercoaster, but I wish it had a standard drop. Is it because of intensity/Gs?

Thanks, its an after prom thing so they said if it was free I didn't have to pay $10 for the buss ride

Anyone know if you can get bus parking for free at KI with a season pass card. Im going with my school and if it is I go free. Gold just to let you guys know.

Invertigo does not need to be removed for the KI Giga. Kings Island has only used just over half of the land they owned for the park, so I think they will be able to expand for at least 30+ years. The only ride that MAY be removed for it could be Adventure Express, though it would be unlikely.
