Decoding Episode II: Rivertown 2017 and the Falling Trees
King Ding Dong replied to jcgoble3's topic in Kings Island
Maybe it will be sponsored by mystictimber.com, a company that sells wooden pipes. Maybe the shed is just filled with smoke and everybody comes back to the station high.The shed will have doors and when they open up it will be like Spicoli's van (Sean Penn) in Fast Times at Ridgemont High.https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=uWiYphJUS7Q -

^ This is going back many, many years mind you. When you smoke a "cigarette" you roll yourself one wants to smoke as much of it as possible but it gets so short it burns your fingers. So you put it in clip such as the ones Mystic Timber sells. I suppose we now know what is going on in the shed. -

A high end roach clip company. That is hilarious. I remember as a kid in the 70s one of the game prizes at SFSTL was an alligator clip attached to a foot long feather. In elementary school we just thought they were silly decorations, by high school we all realized what the park was up to. When we first move to Omaha about 13 years ago the city just launched a new promotional and marketing campaign for the city. There were 9 members of the board that spent 200k on developing the campaign and none had noticed it already had a connotation. The campaign for Omaha: The Big O! -
New For 2017: Mystic Timbers!

Although this is a much different coaster I have been on Amercian Thunder at SFSTL many times and it is a great ride. I expect this will be fun as well. Regarding the name I will do my best to follow Thumper's rule...for now...no promises. -

Did KI mention what "Thrill Rating" MT was getting? A 3 or maybe a 4? -

In Six Flags speak that means they don't know if the theming will be working day to day. Hopefully with CF it means something else, -

Does Living Close To KI Take The Magical Out Of It?
King Ding Dong replied to presto123's topic in Kings Island
Of course it would take some of the magic out of it. When we lived in Omaha and had nothing the once a year trip home to SFSTL in the summer was magical for me and the boys, at least for my oldest. When we moved back I bought gold passes and we went twice a week in the summer mostly to the water park for about 4 hours each trip but we only lived 20 minutes away. They still had lots of fun but the enthusiasm would start wearing off in August. I think you need to ask yourself why you only went once a year at most. Was it financial, the drive or maybe your parents were not really into it? I am 1.5 and 2.25 hours form KI and CP respectively and we go once a week. Half the time just to SC. At my wife's insistence we also bought gold Zoombezzi Bay/Columbus Zoo passes again this year becuase last year she enjoyed taking off work early once a week or so and having drinks in the adult lazy river. But that place is such a "zoo" you just about have to buy Zoom passes for the kids. We haven't gone once this year yet. I prefer to spend that $35 on gas to a CF park and the drive really doesn't bother me that much except on days when the boys are wound up and pushing each other's buttons in the back seat driving me crazy. My kids KNOW not to ask "Are we there yet?" "How am I supposed to know? I'm driving, pull up Maps on that iPhone and figure it out yourself!" -

Well the layout is not in detail, only the "area of work". I do not see why there cannot be revisions of the original plans submitted for approval. -

There should be a video link in this thread of one of the local TV news reporters going to the city and them pulling out the plans and laying them on a table. You can get your own copies if you pay the fee. -

^^^ IF it is a RMC it might have some wood. "Wooden" is not something there is likely to be agreement on, ever. The plans were submitted to the city. Can we be 100% sure they are "real", no. Some people say thinking otherwise is "crazy", but I personally don't put it past a government entity to engage in subterfuge in collusion private enterprise. It has happened in the past. -
I pity the poor ride op that has to make Santa do the walk of shame. No presents for you!

I have an old Grand Cherokee. I don't really use it for sports (Rocket League is just a video game) and I don't use it for utilities. Don't work and KI and I when I visit it is almost exclusively for recreation. Therefore logically it is a Recreational Vehicle.
