  1. The problem with bat noises is they don’t make sounds we can hear as it is all ultrasonic, even the wings flapping is pretty quite. Helped my dad raise hundreds of bats as a kid for his research. Even in a basement room with a hundred flying around in a circle overhead it was pretty quite.
  2. Man starts GoFundMe to bring back Geauga Lake “So far, there are no donors to the GoFundMe.” http://fox8.com/2018/02/27/man-starts-gofundme-to-bring-back-geauga-lake/
  3. I view it as a drink stand that just happens to have some chili on a steam table.
  4. Grab a passport as it looks to be Steplechase in UK.
  5. And who can forget that line in most of the rant posts. “My husband says....”
  6. Finally, an announcement of an announcement. Thanks for the announcement @KIghostguy. @Maverick44 will feel much better now.
  7. Soak City never gets any respect. Given the choices I would have to say Rivertown. My least favorite is Action Zone due to no dedicated drink stand.
  8. Can you PM me your parents email? I would love to some hear stories about you on a Christmas Eve. Yep and is it is a gorgeous day. Go outside! (One word, not two).
  9. I don’t see how it can survive at all. Never been but without an orca show I can’t imagine spending that kind of money for just a “really nice aquarium”. It would be akin to CP or KI each shutting down their 5 biggest coasters and replacing them with Larson Loopers and such, or Sears selling off Craftsman.
  10. Probably because outside of a 100 or so people on this board nobody else cares. At least this far out from the season. Maybe they will say something a week or so before opening day. Whatever it is may not be ready until daily operations anyway.
  11. This was settled many pages back. Are you guys flaking out?
  12. Nah, partner with SpaceX for some of their reusable rocket technology. Get some serious ejector air going on.
  13. Although I would say Surf Dog is rather harmless.
  14. Sure it is feasible but there are several challenges. Ribs are more expensive than pork butt so I don’t ever expect them on a meal plan. They are more difficult to prepare in that they have thin membrane on the backside that is a real pain to peel off. (Both spare and back ribs) While ribs are very forgiving in cooking, the timing is much more precise with ribs than pork butt or brisket and can’t really be measured with a thermometer. Skill and experience is required to a much greater degree to produce an acceptable outcome. Something likely in good supply in the Carolinas for an acceptable price and harder to obtain in the Cincy area. I even occasionaly screw up and produce “fall off the bone” ribs while still tasty are a mess and more akin to pulled pork than generally accepted quality bbq ribs. They need to have a bit of bite still to them.
  15. Dang. And I was so hoping I could get a big steak and bloomin onion on the meal plan.
  16. Confused. Isn’t the failure of a failure called a success?
  17. Welcome to KIC @DinoDNA! With every change in attraction there will always be many that are disappointed. Hopefully in the future your grandson will grow to appreciate some other attractions KI has to offer. COSI here in Columbus has a new Dino exhibit and @electricsunmight be able to suggest some others in the area. Life finds a way.
  18. I don’t care if a coaster is 1000’ if the largest drop is at most 200’, Phfft. Has construction on the tower even begun?
  19. Why stop there? Add another 100’ and make it a Cumulus.
  20. No need for that. We usually leave Cbus a bit before 9 to arrive for 10:30 ERT at SC have lunch around 1-2, shower then drive over to the dry park and can usually find a close open spot about that time. Then stay until close or everyone is tired, home by midnight.
  21. Obviously 399’ 11.9” to remain a Giga and remain the Worlds Tallest Giga.
  22. Nah, all they need to do is drive their van to higher ground.
  23. We don’t need any crummy one train coasters at the park.
  24. Give no, trade maybe. Maybe CP would trade for Wicked Twister and @Maverick44 could have his Intamin at KI.
