Well it could reach “the end of its service life”, if someone wanted it to.

Carowinds Webcams are Down; Is There Something in the Works?
King Ding Dong replied to KIguy2004's topic in Rumors
It’s a software upgrade, of course. -
Cedar Point Fast Lane 2020
King Ding Dong replied to fromkingstocedar's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
A family with children that do not meet height requirements on some of the bigger rides or just just not otherwise ready for them. -
Cedar Fair 2019 yearly performance
King Ding Dong replied to Benjamin22's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
Impressive numbers. I wonder how much of that 40% is season FL and new SPs. -
No mistake about it, that is clearly Fred and Alan up there.

Nah, not good enough. Off to the quicksand pits for you. My minions will be along to escort you shortly.

I will need to sleep on this but won’t dismiss it outright. Never had a strong brand preference. I take Snake at his word. Old fashioned is intriguing but kind of labor intensive.

It did not at CP
-
Each truck holds 7-9 passengers that all have to be buckled into a 5 point harness type thing. Incredibly slow loading, I bet Monster beats it. Expect very long waits even with a short line. CP had several demo trucks out that the kids could climb into and sit in and sold $15 wood models the kids could build there as well. I would say KI has a good chance of being one of the other 2 CF sites yet to be announced. What is left: WOF, MA, CGA, CWL, KI, CW They can bolt on whatever type of muffler they choose to achieve the level of noise they desire. EDIT: Just saw Carowinds is getting it so only one slot left.

Locals concerned that Kings Island is violating noise ordinances
King Ding Dong replied to BoddaH1994's topic in Kings Island
@Snowball Lower frequencies travel farther. That said sending these Bozos to the moon would go a long way to solving this problem. -
How well does your cell phone work at KI?
King Ding Dong replied to BoddaH1994's topic in Kings Island
To all having issues, you are just holding your phone wrong. (The teens may not get this shade) APay&Pay here and I have not had any significant issues at KI or CP, however the WiFi at both parks has been nearly useless this past season. I hope the webcam downtime was worth it to “upgrade” the network. -

King Ding Dong replied to BoddaH1994's topic in Kings Island
It’s like people that build their houses in a flood plain because the land is super cheap and then expect a bailout every 5 years when the their house gets destroyed. -
Monster trucks are not my cup of tea either but kids are fascinated by them. The trucks they used up at CP while much louder than a stock F-150 we not louder than a motorcycle. In addition the noise complaints appeared to be only about late night and at CP Monster Jam shut down around 7 or so. Matthew, Monster Jam was less of a “show” and more of a “ride” like antique autos. Just a course with some obstacles to climb over. They don’t really need a lot of land. CP ran theirs entirely on the old Cedars plot, which is much smaller than The Vortex plot. I will be very surprised if they don’t put Monster Jam there for a season.

New For Cedar Point 2020
King Ding Dong replied to ThrillKingsFitzy's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
Stop thinking so small. CP will build us a stage on top of Dragster*. We will officially hold the world record for The Tallest Band in The World. Of course we will only hold that record for a short time until SF does it with Ka and Kanye. *Its not like anyone take note that Dragster is down for a whole week, that's normal. -
New For Cedar Point 2020

Will do. Can we play Rawhide? -

King Ding Dong replied to ThrillKingsFitzy's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
We should start a KIC band. @silver2005 you game? I will play the cowbell. -
Wut? CP is not going to build a polar coaster. What would they possibly put in the extremely expensive tower to justify the cost?

Cedar Point Fast Lane 2020
King Ding Dong replied to fromkingstocedar's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
Surprised as well, but usually by 4-5 in the afternoon the line gets much shorter like all the rest of the front-of-park coasters. -
I didn't even know B&M made woodies.

Heard a rumor KI might have snagged Epic Sax Guy.

Need Help Planning a Trip

3 parks in three days. Sounds like an @malem trip. When do you plan on sleeping? -

Coney Island Cincinnati to remove all rides
King Ding Dong replied to BoddaH1994's topic in Coney Island Central
Exactly. Zoombezi Bay has an adults only lazy river and bar with drinks allowed on the tubes. Just take my money. -
Do you think OktoberFest will replace Action Zone?
King Ding Dong replied to Cedar Fair Fanboy's topic in KI Polls
From a profit center into an expense? -
Probably not, I failed to perform numerical analysis on the data. I suspect most will find a way to get there over the next 2 months.
