  1. ^ So your telling me there's a chance it will re-open?

  2. ^ This would change the face of everything. Can she paddle a canoe? Can she use ski poles? Can she zip line? Can she hitch-hike? Can she use foam fingers? Can she make a snowball? Can she mountain climb? Can she fish using an actual pole? My ultimate (and serious) question: can she drive a car? This will ultimately get dismissed because the park did not say she could not enjoy the whole park, just one particular ride. There is a big difference between the two. Due to financial constraints, the is NO WAY all park/ ride manufacturer can accomodate every disability. I have issues with this type of lawsuit. While I feel for her, she is (in a round about way) saying: "Since I cannot ride, nobody can."

  3. As I have heard, the Kochs are looking deeper into opening the abandoned Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom park to the point of possibly re-naming it as "Bluegrass Boardwalk" What do you think would be a good name for the Louisville Park? Or do you like the names "Kentucky Kingdom" and "Bluegrass Boardwalk?"

  4. But.. Kentucky is the Bluegrass state... and Louisville is part of Kentucky.

  5. Aha! Dr. Math says this: Also, eHow says this: So from the perspective of the most common definition, SIX is correct in their announcement of a "tenfold increase", but Terpy's viewpoint is not invalid either. eHow goes on to say that "professionals will generally avoid using" such terms, which is SIX's only real error here.

  6. Insults are not necessary in this topic, thanks. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Athabasca_Oil_Sands We have plenty of oil. It's just not as easy to get and not as pure as it use to be. Everyone needs to chill out. If you don't want to talk politics, don't make a topic and or contribute to a thread about oil prices.

  10. Tonight, I got to go to Doug's viewing. It brought me a lot of peace and closure. I hated to say goodbye, but I did. I know that Doug is watching over us. I couldn't stop smiling when in the funeral home seeing things that were Doug. Seeing people lined up, I had stood in line for about an hour and a half, to pay their respects was just incredible seeing how many people's lives that Doug touched. I teared up when I got to the family, his mother and father asked how I knew Doug and I said I worked with him at the park. They told me that it was great to see so many people from Kings Island there and that it wasn't a summer job, it was a family. I noticed that there was a piece of The Beast (that was removed during re-tracking) with a plaque with Doug's name inscribed on it as well as the rides he was associated with. RIP Doug!

  12. Hopefully they never take the log flume out. I also think tomb raider could have been placed elsewhere then to remove KCKC.

  13. I love this one as the flume has always been one of my favorites. A few things I noticed: - Wow has the operator booth and the support for the lift/hill changed over the years - I prefer the lack of color, the lack of a shield on the left of the lift - Although not in the picture, I think I'd prefer 1974 and knowing that the working water wheel was there to look at as well (also, not a fan of the current spitting snoopy) I can now go to bed as I've learned something new today. Must have missed this and agree with the sentiment.

  14. I prefer the more "primitive" look of the log flume in the first pic, but I still love this great old ride just as much today. A true classic and one of the first "big" rides I ever rode at KI when I was a little kid.
