Has Great Wolf actually managed to turn a profit yet? I'm assuming they're doing well if they opened their first new resort in 5 years and are constructing a 2nd one.

... when Snoopy makes a random cameo appearance in a certain local musical production

The width of queue lines still matters even with the "access via the exit" system?

I plan on attending as well. Saturdays are busier than Fridays at work so I'll likely take that day off and just go before work on the 18th as well instead of taking that entire day off like I usually do. Sent from my LG G3 using Tapatalk

Looking at Google News results for both Kentucky Kingdom and Frankfort, KY, I'm not finding anything. Am I missing something?

They're still utilizing the billboard on the side of the building along I-75 near downtown as well. It currently says something about "OOTORB" (Out Of The Office Riding Banshee)

The other issue with turning the International Restaurant back into a full-service facility is that they'd need to update the furnishings. Even though retro is in these days, it would probably still seem too outdated for many. It seems like it was a very nice restaurant back in the day, as they even had a place for storing wine bottles.

One thing that list brings to light is the fact that Soak City has some unique dining options not available in the main park. This is a bit annoying for me as I generally don't spend a lot of time in Soak City, and when Soak City is closed during the early and latter parts of the season, you can't get those options at all to my knowledge. I wasn't aware you could get bratwurst, Italian sausage, pasta salad or potato salad anywhere in the park.

When you get excited about new coasters testing

Given that they have a hard time getting PR stuff right, I doubt they're paying much attention to what's going on in California right now.

According to Buzz60.com, the new coaster is "The Fury"... http://www.wlwt.com/video/buzz60/amazing-footage-of-new-giga-coaster-the-fury/31626168

I didn't really pay much attention to what was at Kentucky Kingdom last summer save for the stories about PR blunders and such

The ironic thing is, the past couple of weeks I've seen two different positive stories about Sea World... Story 1: SeaWorld helps rescue manatees: http://www.orlandosentinel.com/business/os-seaworld-helps-rescue-manatees-20150224-post.html Story 2: SeaWorld Closes Sea Lion and Otter Show, Staff Helping Rescue Dozens of Stranded Sea Lions: http://fox40.com/2015/03/07/sea-world-closes-sea-lion-and-otter-show-staff-helping-rescue-dozens-of-stranded-sea-lions/ This is what SeaWorld should be known for - not Blackfish.

The sidebar on the main page of the forum? Hover near the top right corner of the box that says "Kings Island Discussion" and you'll see a "<<" button. Click that to open the sidebar. It shows then disappears because the forum doesn't know to hide it until after it's loaded.

Seaworld's response to this mess has been disastrous at best. Regardless of the truthfulness of the film, Seaworld's mismanaged response is ultimately what's hurt them so badly. This sounds like a last-ditch effort to keep the few who haven't decided on their side, with hopes that those few will somehow change the minds of those who have decided never to give a penny to Seaworld again.

I didn't really pay any attention to the games when I was there last year as I was too busy riding stuff and trying not to melt, but that sounds like something they'd do.

We have to keep in mind that just because someone lives near an amusement park doesn't mean that they're automatically accepting of any noises generated by said park - especially if the experience changes from what it was when they moved in.

Latest update... Front of the line passes will be available as an "occasional prize at a game" this year, and are also included as part of a current Thunderbird Fun Pack they're auctioning off right now. More details and link to the auction at http://www.holidayworld.com/holiblog/2015/02/27/front-line/.

I'd love to, but given that this is the weekend after Holiwood Nights and that I work weekends, I don't see myself going, especially since I'm also going to Coasterstock Sent from my LG G3 using Tapatalk

Considering they ended up with millions in debt over the course of 10+ years simply because the powers that be were "overwhelmed", anything's possible at this point...

What part of "they don't have any money" do these people not understand? It makes me wonder why they're suddenly interested in getting the money NOW. Do they have big plans for the area or are they just trying to make themselves look good for an upcoming election?

At least they're being consistent with the farm theme in that area (For those unaware, the show at Peanuts Theater the last few seasons has been about the gang spending time on their grandparents' farm)

Likely won't be Kentucky Kingdom either

Ryan's been famous for a while now. As I recall his picture used to appear on a banner somewhere in Action Zone

I would also recommend checking out the game "Escape The Room: Limited Time" if you're not familiar with the concept. The Room and its sequel are both excellent, but "Escape The Room ..." is more typical of the genre in my opinion
