  1. ^Same here, that was before they retracked it and lowered the thrill rating from a 6 to a 4
  2. Have you ever seen the movie? The water splash is the ending scene of the chase.
  3. The Helix tunnels where added a year later. You can tell if you look at some older pictures from 1979. Wasnt just one helix covered and the top one uncovered? Thats what I seem to remember from the video.
  4. ^It is, and if you dont like it, its simple........then dont ride it.
  5. Wheres your proof of that?
  6. ^You could recreate it even better in RCT3 than RCT2
  7. ^And it was proving to be too costly with having to constantly replace the shock absorbers on the trains.
  8. must just be a mistake.
  9. A troika is a guest who needs to be dealt iwth by security, when we call over the raidoes and say "we need a troika taken care of" security comes, usually armed with tazers and billy clubs to haul away a troublesome guest. What? Oh.....uhm wait...... A troika is the name of a flat ride built by Huss. Huss troika's are in many parks all over the United States, Kings Island's Huss troika is called Shake Rattle and Roll. So when someone refers to Troika they are referring to Shake Rattle and Roll.
  10. ^Yeah, the enchanted tehatre and slime time live shows are gone but they still have School Of Rock, Tv land whatever, and the country one prsented by CMT.
  11. ^Still used the announcement this year too, heard it everyday when I was sitting at greeter for School of Rock and Tv Land presents whatever and schedules were still posted outside of the paramount theatre and international showplace.
  12. A friend of mine taped it off the tv and put it on dvd for me, its amazing how much the park has changed and how poor the production values of that episode are, wasnt it filmed in just one weekend? Its good for a laugh though and I dont think most people notice all the blunders.
  13. Yes, the park will change under new ownership. There is no guarantee it will be for the better. The park you work for isnt in such great shape either.
  14. ^Did anyone ever run them over?
  15. What animals did the WAH have that the Cincinnati Zoo doesnt have and what is KI's admission compared to say that of the Cincinnati Zoo or Newport Aquarium? What would you use instead of a monorail? You can see some pictures I took of the monorail at its new home here.
  16. Ravens is to small? Have yoy ever even been on Raven? Raven owns Beast! Legend is better than Beast! You seriously need to ride it b4 u think it isnt as good as Beast bc Beast is boring! I have ridden it.
  17. Oh cry me a river, Paramount has done more for the park than anyone and as much as you complain theyre not gonna bring it back to how it was, if you look at KI how it was back in the brady bunch days yeah it looked neat but it was just like a large carnival. PKI never has been and is not now Disney calliber but Paramount has put it more in that direction than anyone, yeah not every decision has been great but with time comes change and you people need to stop complaining about it, PKI Is still a great place for young kid and adults with or without fences around the fountains.
  18. ^Im not saying its soundwave, but no one knows what its going to be, so why accuse paramount parks of destroying it when they could have something great planned.
  19. And how do you know they dont have something great planned for it?
  20. Yep, sure are.
  21. Took this picture at Winter SOAR.
  22. Last night while working at Best Buy I saw the gentlmen who spoke on behalf of Indiana Beach in the pro audio section, I wanted to go talk to him but I got dragged away by some customers.
  23. In the words of the Ring master "Oh Snap!"
  24. Yeah tonight was a great night indeed. I got some great photos and video and got to see some old friends and put faces to some new ones.
  25. I dont know if I want to pay, I dont like how ACE is all mysterious about where their funds go, that excavation project in Egypt they had a few years back was disasterous and when they tried to get that souveneir cup and feuded with park employees on every contintent before that I lost quite a lot of respect for them. Like I said, parts of Indiana Jones and the Acers of the Lost park will be filmed tommorow.
