Guest kwindshawne Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 Hey guys, Dane and Ryan let me in on what the date means... You wanna know what it is? Cedar Fair is going to announce that on that day, Kings Island will be sold to Six Flags. What?????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PKIVortex Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 LOL, that would be the day hell freezes over. I'm wondering if the big announcement has something to do with another KI website? I have no idea though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jondrewfoo Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 id hope for a KICentral Kings Island exclusive day... but id say it is something to do with one of the two websites, KICentral, or Cedar Fairs Kings Island website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cory Butcher Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 Dang you people are good! Ryan is going to announce that TRTR is being rethemed, the KI website is being redone, at least 2 new rides for `08, AND KIC is getting a new site design. Just brillant. Tom-Who kinda had a bad night if you couldnt tell Tom, there is only one thing you left out that other people have talked about...and that is a KIC day at KI...hmm, devil's in the details...

welchce Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 Why not install "Moving Sidewalk: The Ride?" Have 4 moving sidewalks running throughout the park, just like at the airport, and you can just hop on one. That's a pretty novel idea. It could be the longest and fastest moving sidewalks in the world! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hauntguy Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 Hahaha... maybe KI is announcing the addition of SHADING in the X-Base area!!! I burnt to a crisp in that area today! Maybe some more trees, tents/awnings, cool zones... SOMETHING!! -Hauntguy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had an idea to take that area and make it like a roofed lounge where you can sit down after you get a number when you get in line. It'd be like waiting to get a table at a restaurant with couches to sit on and of course AC. Obviously that'll never happen but a man can still dream.

standbyme Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 If it is a park news and not a KICentral news item, the best announcement for me would not be a new ride, it would be that they are (finally) planning a new campground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Interpreter Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 And highly likely, too; as it is a known profit maker/revenue raiser in a time when Cedar Fair needs more per caps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything would be better than when I went out to Magic Mountain a couple weeks ago, apparently getting heat exhaustion while queuing for X is a common occurrence. No shade AT ALL, horrible park.

i4got907 Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 080407... Would that be August 4th, 2007? 080407? If I'm not mistaken, that's a Saturday... There's nothing on the PKI calender for that day! Hmmm.... Interp, you've always got me puzzled! -Hauntguy August 4th 2007 is FearFest Auditions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cedar Fair is going to announce that on that day, Kings Island will be sold to Six Flags. This was funny until that news post about the quiet Cedar Fair buyout. Six Flags can't afford crap (which is why they've been selling), but with all this shuffling in the business lately...it's getting a little nerve-wracking.

Outdoor Man Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 you guys are way off. i heard that they are going to clear the rest of the land where the Safari was, call it Geauga- and load that whole place on a flat bed and move it to Cincinnati.

UncleHenry Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 All I really wanted from that park was Dominator and X-Flight. And since we already have one, might as well have the other too. The rest can go to MIA or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastersNSich Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 You're not the only one tired of new rides. Why not install "Moving Sidewalk: The Ride?" Have 4 moving sidewalks running throughout the park, just like at the airport, and you can just hop on one. You won't believe how good an idea that is.... However, this announcement has nothing to do with something from KONE, Schindler, or Otis... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
