trevor75 Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 I know it only says attraction so i hope everyone doesn't drop off the deep end again when this isn't the coaster announcement that they are expecting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyingEagle Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Very interesting to know that it will be world record breaking. Maybe the tallest and fastest, possibly longest invert? If this is going to be an invert which I hope it is, I would like to see tallest, fastest, most inversions for a invert. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fryoj Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Who wants to bet that they will be announcing the worlds largest chicken dance! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trevor75 Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 so 10PM is a great time if you want to hit a live news feed at 10 and enough time to get an edited package together for an 11pm broadcast. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KI FANATIC 37 Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 August 8th! Just got a text that they will unveil it on August 8th! So I guess "day this summer" did mean it won't be announced in the day time. I'm like a page late. Wow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought people who followed this thread from the beginning thought it would either be a night announcement or a multiple day announcement. A few thought after the summer though. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pyrocoasterkid Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Presumably, it is a night time announcement because it will play into the whole Banshee, scary field with "scarecrows" and owls and haunting noise things (and maybe camping)? Seems to all tie together so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

malem Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 I assume that this announcement will be open to the public but haven't heard any confirmation? Don? The date and time were sent, along with "Save the Date", to anyone who subscribed to "KI Club" updates. That's a pretty safe assumption. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoungStud Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Since it is for a world record breaking coaster, am I wrong to get my hopes up? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joncars05 Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 It is amazing how many people had no idea that Kings Island was even building a ride. People on twitter are tweeting "Huh?" and "I hope it is a new coaster." Are people that oblivious to the big huge construction site where SOB used to stand? Man I lose hope in humanity more and more everyday... 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man I lose hope in humanity more and more everyday... Most people don't look at KI or Amusement Parks as we do. We notice every change and think its something big. Imagine something that you don't obsess about. You probably wouldn't notice a change like what's going on at KI. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But just wanted to post a link to the article: http://masonbuzz.com/2013/07/31/kings-island-to-announce-world-record-breaking-attraction/ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
