If you look to the right of the operator booth at Zephyr, there's a large round concrete pad that I believe was used as a footer for the Giant Slide.

If you've ever seen anything relating to The Muppets, you've seen one... http://muppet.wikia.com/wiki/Whatnots Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S3 using Tapatalk 4

I feel sorry for all the people involved in this. It's a shame that Kinzel isn't one of the ones having to deal with the mess he created. In some ways I can also understand why CF keeps appealing this - what are they going to do with the person who took over for Falfas? You can't fire someone simply because the court says you have to reinstate their predecessor in that position, but it's also tough to relocate that person within the company due to the nature of said position.

Nice to see that they're putting that lift from over by Invertigo to good use for once

And for those who don't have a Facebook? Someone can post a link to the album. -

Just a reminder to everyone... If you want to share pictures from the webcam, please save them to your computer and upload them to an image hosting site such as Photobucket, then share the uploaded image here. Otherwise your post makes no sense for those of us who didn't see it when you posted it since the webcam image automatically updates every minute or so.

So I hadn't heard any of this yet. So is the bsb going to be tolled? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I547 using Tapatalk 4 It's not certain yet, but they're saying that it's likely to be part of the project recommendations. See http://www.brentspencebridgecorridor.com/tolling/ for more details.

6-alarm Fire at Seaside Park NJ Boardwalk

New for 2014 at Holiday World...

I'm also wondering how KK will affect Beech Bend's attendance, since BB is only 2 hours from Louisville. Granted, BB and HW are much different parks, but I'm sure they drew at least some of the KK crowd as well. Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S3 using Tapatalk 4 -
What Amusement Park Attractions Have You Operated?
Oldiesmann replied to fanofFirehawk's topic in KI Polls
Woodstock's Whirlybirds, Linus' Beetle Bugs, Peanuts 500, Peanuts Off Road Rally and part of a shift at whatever the kids carousel is called now (I picked up a shift in East Pie one time) Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S3 using Tapatalk 4 -
There's probably about as much a chance of that happening as there is seeing the current trains in their original form (buzz bars, bench seats and no seatbelts). Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S3 using Tapatalk 4

That is a different situation. The county owns all the riverfront lots near Paul Brown Stadium where tailgating is not only allowed but often encouraged. I'm sure there are legal exceptions in place to allow consumption of alcohol and grilling in those lots. Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S3 using Tapatalk 4

Unfortunately it looks like I'll be missing this again. I spent too much time debating whether I wanted to do both this and the space/sci fi concert from the Cincy Pops that same weekend (meaning taking two days off work) and just realized it's too late to request that day off now. I need to plan this stuff better :-P Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S3 using Tapatalk 4

From my understanding, the tolls are designed to help cover the costs of building those bridges, much like they're considering for the Brent Spence Bridge here in Cincy (for those not from the area, BSB carries traffic between Ohio and Kentucky on interstates 71 and 75) Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S3 using Tapatalk 4

6-alarm Fire at Seaside Park NJ Boardwalk

Picture Trip Palooza Weekend 06SEP--08SEP
Oldiesmann replied to thedevariouseffect's topic in Trip Reports
With Madam Fatales, we weren't told to stop taking pictures until we were partway through the actual haunt itself. I just assumed they didn't want us revealing all the hiding places for those who will be going through them (I'm not a fan of haunted stuff so I won't be one of them), but given the amount of people doing the tours, the fact that they just didn't want things getting clogged up makes more sense. -
I'm surprised by the "if you do it, make sure you don't get caught" posts on here. The point is, it's not legal, whether you get caught or not. You should not be doing it or encouraging others to find ways to skirt the law. As enthusiasts I like to think that we should be setting examples for park guests, not purposely ignoring the rules.

What's Up With Snoopy's Starlight Spectacular?
Oldiesmann replied to BoddaH1994's topic in Kings Island
A parking garage would not work at KI. If anything, it would make parking worse. Imagine the same amount of cars that you see at 10pm on a busy day at KI but compressed into an area less than half the size, with limited exit lanes and several levels of traffic. It would be a nightmare. Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S3 using Tapatalk 4
