This is a first for me. Coney bbq is completely out of chicken.

Look, no line!!

I believe there are some school band trips today. My brother in law and nephew are there in a trip.

Totally agree. We were eating dinner in the Festhaus Friday night, and after finishing up, we were sitting a talking before throwing our trash away on the way out. As we were talking, an employee came over and asked if he could take care of our trash for us. We told him that we would take care of it, but it was something that was very much appreciated

Please bring corn pudding on the dry side of the park!!!!! Other than that, our food experiences were fine this weekend. Chicken Shack was good. I had the shrimp from Coney; I think it has been sitting for a while, but it still tasted good. Did Tom+Chee on Saturday and it was excellent. Planning on shooting for the Brewhouse in the coming weeks!

Got 2 rides in this morning during ERT. Fantastic addition to the park!!! It was a blast having our boys drive us around the first time through While I do miss the location of the original Antique Cars, and I really wasn't too sure what to expect with the smaller space, KI made use of every single bit of area they had to work with. Amazing theming, license plates were a nice touch. Also, I was blown away with what was done with the Kill Mart building!!! I won't say anything about it, but it adds a bunch to the area. All in all, well done KI!!!!!

We were out there too. Nothing Oh well, I'm sure we will see it later in the season.

Except Good Friday 2017, which was preview night when MT opened....

Me!!!!....and Saturday too!!!!

Definitely agree!!

Looking at the weather, wait times may not be too bad this Friday and Saturday...

Yeah, I wish that preview night was still only for fall renewals...

Yeah, I am sure they will have Beast 40th anniversary shirts for sale. I am guessing just not that design.

Kings Island replied on Twitter and stated they will not be selling the shirt in stores.

Yeah, we were thinking the same thing last night. I'll be anxious to see how they handle that.

This just in...

The fact that people still think The Beast Unleashed giga is an official park announcement.

A couple thoughts from our first ever trip last weekend: -Harmony Hall BBQ place was really good. Had the brisket sandwich and mac n cheese. Good amount of food. -Avoid Papa Luigi's pizza. It was one of the most bland and tasteless pizza's I have ever had. -The Carolina Skytower is a really good after lunch/dinner attraction. Really great views! -Fury, Fury, Fury!!!!!!! -Definitely ride Intimidator. It looks like Diamondback, but it has some really nice features, especially what happens after that first drop!! -Definitely get back to Copperhead Strike first thing in the morning. We had like a 5 minute wait first thing in the morning. During the afternoon it was like 2 hours. We went back around 7-8 pm, and it was only about 20 minutes, so maybe hit it up again then. Hope you have a great trip!!!

Just rode CS. Fun, fast, lots of hanging air time. Excellent job on the theming and an all around great addition!!! I will say the 2 shoot outs have a bit more force than it looks like in the videos. Definitely proves that a new ride doesn’t have to break all the records to be fun!!!

Making our first (and second) ever trip tomorrow and Saturday. Cannot wait to ride this!!

Interesting that Chicken Shack is getting the smoked wings...I was really hoping they’d get the chicken and waffles like KD.

I ran across it on Twitter this morning. 4 Cedar Fair Parks are getting it.

Spectacle of Color Parade Duration: 30 - 40 Minutes Take in extraordinary sights and sounds of sparkling floats and extravagantly costumed performers during the Spectacle of Color parade hosted by the King of Carnivale. An electrifying musical score fills the air as a larger-than-life elephant, Bollywood performers, a Jules Verne airship and more take to the street to delight park guests. Activities and interactive experiences make this one parade you won’t want to miss. Carnivale Street Party Duration: Until Park Closes As the parade concludes, thunderous music builds to a crescendo and the King of Carnivale kicks off a street party filled with performers, an interactive dance party and more. Grand Carnivale

Yeah, I saw the fountain post and thought, is it still Friday night???
