No one ever confirmed that the Addams Family rights were secured, the retauraunt thing was just a concept, meaning it only has the possibility to become a reality. Plus you need different rights for different attractions. To make an Addams Family themed ride and restaurant would require different contracts and stipulations, the Addams Family rights are not secured. Thats if your referring to the food survey the other day though, however if you have a newspaper article or something stating the amusement ride rights have been confirmed that would be helpful.

I just love how Six Flags pumps money into the same parks over and over but lets the others rot to be sold off when they accumulate too much debt. Honestly, why is Six Flags building yet another new are to SFGA two years in a row? Who the hell gives them money?

No one ever CONFIRMED that The Beastie was going to get re-themed.

I consider Magic Mountain their flaghsip park because its the one I see Six Flags promoting the most and its in the nicest condition and it has the most coasters.

Actually Legend Rider, I believe Lesourdsville Lake's screeching eagle used the 3 car NAD trains that were later renovated with PTC lap bars. I remember reading that this morning. Also, why did PTC deny paramount the right to use their trains on SOB?

I bet voyage is gonna suck.

Angry Beavers isnt even a mainstream nick toon anymore is it?

My god, My god, now that is coaster! But we'll see if it beats The Beast.

I once saw OJ playing on the dance dance machine in the festhaus.

UNLESS you have kids combat! Picard never said anything about kids over 15 being childish. Capt said I think some are getting a little over excited about a children's area for their age. If you have kids I can understand getting excited. I would think if you was over 15 you wouldn't get much out of the children's area. I have 2 kids I take everyyear to PKI and I really am pumped because I know they will be riding ride themed to characters they know and love. You really need to chill out dude, no one ever "spoiled" the moment or said you shouldnt get excited if you were over 15. Yes I am over 15 and I do get something out of the kids area. You need to stop being defensive about it. Picard can say whatever the hell he wants. So hes not excited about the kids area, he said so, he never spoiled the moment. The topic is "Kings Island to Overhaul Children's Area for 2006" not "all those who are pumped up about the kids area say so here". So Picards not pumped, who cares, he never spoiled anyhting. I agree with Scooby and Klockster Iam 23 and I have a 5 year old and Iam really pumped about the new kids area and Combat Scooby can say whatever the Hell he wants too! So what young adults can get excited about Nick Universe Iam sure most of them have kids in their lives and have a reason to get pumped. Other than that Hoopla Iam sure 2007 will bring something HUGE but first lets focus on NU and the 2006 season and what it will bring. Does anyone read anymore or are you all too busy acting like little kids on the itnernet? The whole point of my post was that people can say whatever they want in this topic. I never said scoob couldnt say what he wanted. Of course if you thought about what you thought about what you were writing, you wouldnt have "spoiled" this topic. Grow up kids. Nick Universe 2006 woot.

Picard never said anything about kids over 15 being childish. I love cartoons and when I read his post I wasnt offended. All hes saying is that most older people arent getting excited most older kids shouldnt get that excited either, its gonna be a fantastic place for kids but it wont be that great for us, most of the rides i believe will require you to have a child with you to ride like Taxi Jam.

All local news around here absolutely sucks. Theyre all jokes. Atleast the WB local news is somewhat respectable. All the "target 5" and "I team" bull s**t. Give me a break, report some real news. Fox news is the worst here, theyre on for an entire hour and cover so many USELESS stories.

I wanna see Cedar Fair buy Astroworld. Six Flags sucks and just likes to ruin parks it seems.

Snapper, you said you could see CP buying Fiesta Texas, New England, and Magic Mountain. I dont think Six Flags would even consider selling these, from what I've read these are some of their more profitable parks as well as much nicer parks. Magic Mountain is there flagship, fiesta texas is gorgeous, and New England has been getting better every year.

What would you theme a B&M or Intamin themed coaster to? The Hulk's theming sucks.

Baby Beast was never a real Beast anyways, he was originally called the scooby doo then he grew into his teen years and got into that troublemaker phase and called himself The Beastie, bullying the other rides in HB.

When I was driving around today, one banquet hall had a sign saying "Best wishes Cindy and Steve" but the other two had nothing on them. Their parking lots were filled with weeds as were their sidewalks. Maybe thier not abonded but they sure look that way.

In addition to the go kart track they also had bumper boats, mini golf and a few other small attractions. They had a lazy river, some inner tube slides, a few enclosed slides, a few speed slides. I remember going to the place a lot as a kid. One set of two dual racing speed slides could be seen from the highway, they were the same as the racing ones at The Beach. On the lower ends of the stairs to these slides was an about 45 degree angle slide wiht a small raft and one small enclosed slide, they all emptied into the same pool. The big wave pool was towards the front of the park and what remains of it is seen up in that picture. When I went and visited it today I never went past the fence or did anything to tresspass, but I was able to get pictures of some of the old slides still hanging in the air, some old lamp-posts from the mini golf course, and the best thing I could see was where they used to have volley ball nets and big picnic pavillions. However, most of that area was flooded. Everything, including the banquet halls located by it seem to be abonded. It was rather creepy and One time while positioning my camera to look inside where the old bumper boats used to be, I heard something crash very loudly. I will have the pictures up soon.

I remember awhile ago I had a topic about Surf Cincinnati and Zoso Beast commented that he would LOVE to see some pictures from the now defunct and abonded water park: More will come soon for all to enjoy. *note: all pictures were taken legally and no illegal trespassing was done*

PKD is getting IJ, PKI is getting NICK, PC is getting BB, what is PGA and PCW getting?

No one ever confirmed that the Ghoster Coaster was leaving.

They share the parking lot with the astrodome, the Reliant center is across the street from the Astrodome. The reason they want to sell the park is because the land is very valuable. Back on the late 70's Astroworld needed money and sold off part of their land to a car dealership to make some money. Yes it is a problem that they share a parking lot with the astrodome but the astrodome is rarely used now, atleast for sporting events and concerts. My dad worked in Astroworld back in the 80's and many of his friends still do and live in the area. They are extremely angered by Six Flags decision to sell the park. The last new ride Astroworld got was Serial Thriller in 1999 and SWAT a year or two later. It would be fantastic if Cedar Fair bought this park and turned it back around. They could get some new coasters, and the park would look beautiful. Six Flags sucks.

SFAW has the only swatter in North America and now that park is closed thanks to Six Flags brilliant decisions once again, maybe CP or someone will buy it if it doesnt get moved to another SF park.

Whats GL getting next year?
