  1. I did actually try the Monster Munch. It is pretty much just a bowl of Muddy Buddys with Candy Corn and Reeses' Peices mixed in after. https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/229544/chex-muddy-buddies/
  2. Planet Snoopy and Camp Snoopy are closed on Fridays and will close at 7:00 PM on Saturdays and Sundays during Halloween Haunt.
  3. I hope it has enough scarers it doesn't wreck the whole theme
  4. Didn't Kiddie Land close at 6pm previous year, looks like they pushed it back to 7pm
  5. I am sure the abundance of alcoholic beverages inside the park had no bearing on her being drunk... syke
  6. Noticed today in the app that the passes for 2025 are for sale, prices so far look pretty consistent with 2024's prices. Slight increases over all on everything as expected, no benefit changes on any of the tiers as of this moment. Gold Pass : 2024 - $110 2025 - $120 Prestige Pass : 2024 - $325 2025 - $340 Silver Pass: 2024 - N/A 2025 - $105 This got me curious though, about what price increases were over the last few years. I attempted to get a price around mid-August for each year using (https://web.archive.org/web/20120601000000*/https://www.visitkingsisland.com/season-passes), not all have a crawler copy available however. Gold Pass : 2012 - $98 (32.99 x 3 rec) 2013 - 115 2014 - 115 (38 x 3) 2016 - 105 (10.50 x 10) 2019 - 2020 : 2020 - 2021 : 120 (Snapshot is from May) 2021 - 2022 : 105 2022 - 2023 : 135 2023 - 2024 : 110 2024 - 2025 : 120 I realize in typing this I didn't verify that I actually got prices for the next year, and maybe just max price for the "current" year. I will adjust some of the numbers later.
  7. Menu looks promising, sucky on the tasting cards. Incidentally I'll probably spend less overall without the card since it'll make me be a bit more choosey on what sounds worth the money instead of bulk buying and allowing experiments
  8. My kids love watching the parade and this puts it prime 2 hours after they go to bed. So glad they won't get to enjoy it this year, they'll look forward to missing it. I'm happy to see CF moving forward with making Kings Island more and more kid unfriendly. Maybe next year with the addition of 15 new places to buy booze they'll do a dollar beer night and put in an ammo vending machine.
  9. I was very excited when I realized Costco was selling some stretchy shorts with zipped front pockets, and a 3rd zipped "cargo" pocket. Nothing for the single back pocket however. My go-to for Amusement Parks now, in addition to a bumbag which apparently allowed on most coasters now, so long as it is around my waist. Interestingly enough Banshee last week actually made me take my glasses off and put them in my pocket because I didn't have a strap. First time they ever mentioned it, I've worn them on Banshee many times without issues from the crew, or the ride.
  10. I was just standing here thinking, has Drop Tower even managed a 50% uptime this year?
  11. Ohhhhh, that is where you get coffee. That was going to be a year-long mystery, now I just have to wait for French Corner to actually open
  12. Oh mang, speaking of little things that would have been cool for a "camp" effect. Opening "wke-up" Bugle when the ride first open each day, camp announcement with Lunch and Dinner bells, and a "Lights Out" announcement for last rides. As for "Good Gravy", we actually just went to Holiday World for their opening weekend and I had this conversation with my kids. I think everything except the ride itself on Good Gravy is better, the ride for SSBR is probably marginal win. They are very similar rides to me, but the hump on the end spike is great and seals the deal for me.
  13. Haha. This comes across as just "hey Kings Island it looks like we had 65,000 people buy the new drink plan, so we need to probably do something about this... I know we can move all the employees to alcohol sales, close most of the regular drink refills and maybe order some more machines so they can be ready in... the last month of regular operation" My goodness, taking a trip to Holiday World has RUINED my already dwindling opinion of Cedar Fair operations, I'm super excited for Six Flags Management
  14. I noticed the French Corner was open for the first time during one of my visits so I dipped in for the muffuletta sandwich and chips. Out of The Bat, the Cajun chips sucked. Floppy, bland and stale. The sandwich though was surprisingly good. The olive spread was a bit odd since I thought it would be just an olive or two and I could pick them off, but the spread was so much an afterthought that I couldn't Even taste it any how. It was pretty filling for just a sandwich, and the seasoning really helped out what was basically a cold cut sandwich.
  15. The entire park needs about 3 times more seating and 4 times more shade
