Orion-XL200

Thought the same thing. It was kind of like "here's a hole in the ground." But more of, here's a little bit of concrete. Overall, video was done pretty well. I would have loved more details on Pigpen's Mess Hall and the Beagle Scout Acres. Nothing on Franklin's Flyers either.

Six Flags has the rights to a couple IPs from Warner Brothers, but unfortunately not Scooby Doo. At the moment, I don't see them integrating it back into the portfolio but never say never.

Agreed with you about communication and that the specials were a step in the right direction. I just wonder what it'd be like if they put that much effort into the season long menus or at least replaced items on the menus (chicken fingers) with a special for a couple of months. Give people the reason to come back, spread the word about the food, especially to those friends that get in with BAF tickets who likely won't have a meal plan and will pay directly for their meal....$ into the park.

I kind of did the same thing...I mean he came from a Casino/Hotel in Missouri, so it's not like he's not had any "big world" experience...but it seems like it's just been adding a little bit more cilantro to the chicken tenders or the food at Enrique's. The one thing I really liked at Cedar Point this past season with Grand Pavilion, was that they changed options about 1/2 way through the season....my favorite was the Herb Roasted Turkey at the beginning of the season and then they switched that out for Honey Glazed Chicken Drumsticks which I loved as well. I don't understand how KI has never really changed up their options, especially since the addition of restaurants and the meal plans. From Kings Island welcomes new executive chef and opens new restaurant | InPark Magazine: Almost a year later, I doubt that the amount of guests would agree and would share that the park has unique food offerings. At least there is tap water, though not unique.

That it does.... Grain and Grille was sort of a step in the right direction, but it seems as if they won't be doing anything different/new to the menus.

45 cents for a water cup, the water is free, but the container is not.

I always thought KI needed a song like this: While looking for that, I came across this: Did KI ever release their 50th song (from the Fun and 50 show)? I really enjoyed that song!

Yes I would like 100 refills a year! Only 35.99 per bottle and per 16 oz cup.

Exciting news for Dorney! The park PR team has knocked it out of "the park" with their updates this off season!

Of course, someone that doesn't work for the park, shares the news instead of the Kings Island Team. Waste of space imo. I love to have a drink or two when I'm at a park, but this isn't something that I feel like I have to get to KI for. Mac n Cheese bar, sure.

Good Gravy has officially began testing per Holiday World Facebook!!!!

Thankfully I have a major discount for that night

Just checked the hotel I'm staying at and it's sold out for April 8th. Wanted to see if I could add a day on (the 7th) and the night had jumped to over $450! Crazy!

Those seem like really awesome opportunities! I did a Voyage track tour back in 2017 (I think) it was enjoyable!

There were blue ice cream crazy mason jar milkshakes at KI if I remember correctly....how available they were though... They do have blue ice cream fudge, have had various blue ice creams flavored things in the past.

When the park first added the buffet in the IR for Winterfest, it was great. I can't tell you after the first year or two, when they switched to a menu that featured things that most people have never heard of. That was a turn off for me and I could see families not wanting to spend the $ to go up there for food they may or may not eat. It would be great if they could figure out a menu that isn't so exotic but not the typical chicken tenders/burger type either. A happy medium would be great. Eating up there and watching over I-Street is always a joy. Festhuas is a different breed. I really don't like that they have shows in there. But this isn't about that.....so food. Panda Express is just okay. The remainder of the food is food court food. I still would like to see a renovation like Harmony Hall at Carowinds. Aren't we supposed to have something like Pigpen's Mess Hall?

On top of that the team at Dorney has done an amazing job covering enhancements/the installation of Iron Menace.

I know of about 10 families that did not renew Cedar Fair passes and bought Dollywood passes instead.....

Part 2: Issue is mostly placement where the ads are, they get prioritized over threads and content I know I can click the arrow to minimize on either pc or mobile, but it only does that on that page. Each new page, you have to redo it.

Wanting to see if anyone else has the same issues with ads: On PC: First pic - ad showing more than the threads Second pic: when trying to multiquote, the button for quoting that normally would be at the bottom right disappeared due to the ad. Third pic: Ad covers content in theads. Will share issues on mobile.

It's amazing how simple, yet how effective something like this could be.

Yes....I've only been a few times and I've not necessarily felt unsafe, but I felt something. Not to mention operations are extremely awful.

What was the FunFact Friday? Must be so fun, that it's not really out there. When I saw the colors, I had to think "Runaway Reptar" though the track was yellow and the supports were green.

The short description of the event itinerary (without actual exact things listed), looked to be an almost exact replica of Coasterstock.

Truthfully, IMO, I think if possible, Six should move the rides/assets worth anything to other parks and shut SFOG down. With the continuous issues the park has with security and the like, it seems like the best option. I mean, I don't see the park turning around.
