Kings Island Halloween Haunt 2024 Reviews
Rivertown Rider replied to IndyGuy4KI's topic in Kings Island
The 90s wrestling fan in me thought Doink the Clown was facing Lex Luger somewhere in Coney Maul. -
Timberwolf sign is gone from the gate by the ticket booth. It could be nothing but something to watch. It was there earlier this year.

This was on the KI Season Pass Holders facebook group the other day. I do find it odd that the lid is slightly ajar but that could be nothing.

Generally if something happens in Europe it seems to get extra points. It is like how you automatically add stars to any wrestling match that happens in the Tokyo Dome lol.

Is the Coke Freestyle in Rivertown open?

I did see a gold tag pick up two pieces of trash in Planet Snoopy the other day. I didn't know this particular younger gold tag but thought it was good to see that.

I agree I don't think that the majority of people remember which floats we have from year to year. If they insisted on moving something from another park, just move Mountain Gliders back here where it belongs and then you only have to rent the trucks once. You could still probably do that more economically than the floats.

Six Flags and Cedar Fair Merge
Rivertown Rider replied to IndyGuy4KI's topic in Kings Island Central Newsroom
I headed up to the park for a few hours late this afternoon to visit one last time before the merger was official tomorrow. I typically just ride based upon how busy certain lines or where I am at in the park on a particular visit. I rode Cargo Loco first and then decided to head over to Action Zone, where I decided to ride Congo Falls then headed over to The Bat. While I was in line for The Bat, I realized that unintentionally I had ridden a Cedar Fair addition (Cargo Loco), a KECO addition (Congo), and was getting to ride The Bat (ordered by KECO/opened by Paramount). After I rode The Bat, I headed over to towards International Street and stopped to ride the Grand Carousel (Coney/Opening Day Taft). While riding the Grand Carousel it hit me how much history this Carousel has seen throughout the years. From being at Coney to an opening day Taft attraction through all of the subsequent owners and changes, the Carousel has been one of the few constants since 1972 (or 1926 in the Carousel's case, even if it moved a few counties to the north). Throughout all of the changes, there have been good and bad and curious changes, but Kings Island has always weathered those changes. Change is one of those constants in life that we can't do much about. I have enjoyed the Cedar Fair era overall and if Cedar Fair and Six Flags take the best of both chains, we could be in for another good era. Just like all of the eras before it, there will be some good, some bad, and some curious changes, but I'm hopeful that Kings Island will be the same outstanding park it has been these last 52 years. -
