Head STRAIGHT TO THE FLYERS at 10am theres usually a flyers fest after the ace walkback.

1st rule of show Biz is the show must go on.

OK NOW A MOD IS HERE! Tanner lay off. Its perfectly OK. Tanner you are breaking board rules by insiteing arugument. This also means we can deem it okay. If I didn't like it I would of closed it before I posted. PKIU has members from the west coast and a death in the amusement community is a bad thing for every park.

You expect me to REMEMBER EVERY CRANNY OF INFO! SHEESH j/k

Actually they have oodles of room but SF likes to do floorless coasters in parking lots. Some news from the west coast say it may have been sucide. Its tragic yes but from people that work there, there is no reason to be near the helix where she was hit at. Some of the news agencys in LA showed the exact spot with the blood. She was dead LONG before the hosptal

Well another trip to PKI was gonna happen.........Not. I woke up sicker than crap this morning.....I end up taking my mom to work and as I am feeling better I goto PKI. I get there at 4:30 to an empty park. I park in the gold pass lot and walk in. No problems at the detector so were away. Walked down to AZ to see SOB with a huge line. I skip that and end up walking all the way down to Monster. Monster the refurbishing must of done somthing I was spinning pretty good for being alone. After that it was time for Vortex. Ah how I keep my chiopractor in his summer homes. After that I do the flyers. Good ride had by all. Then it was the FX theater........SPSP3d........been there done that laughed my ass off. I decide its time to leave as I was bored and I really didn't want to ride much else.....Then I remember I had not eaten today. I went to bubba gumps where I was given a 5 star treatment (as I was the only person in there) I sat back at the back porch and ate while forest gump was on the TV. I was walking out and I decided to play a game in AZ. I do so and win a shreck for my nephew. I go down say bye to sobgun at skyflyer and I realise I am just in time for the new magic of the movies show. The slides are funny. They pick on Britney Spears ALOT. The actors today were Mr Chef and ryan from PKIC. I chatted with them for a few and they were fantastic in there roles. Now they didn't come back after there part was done I was confused. When the show ended I saw chef looking for his bag. I being the upstanding person I am keep an eye on it till he gets it. We part ways and I leave the park. I Fly down 71 at about warp 10 and come home.

I decided that Im not going tomarrow. I will be there sunday. no PKIU day sorry.

I may go up in july.

^^ not if I goto Canada this year :-D

I've been hearing that alot lately!

Finally some respect around here Gifts in the form of cash can be sent Via Paypal. As for the adventures in time. I moved and that thing is Frickin heavy! I made some modifications today also. I will go and test it really soon!

Well that would constute not enough power getting to the park.

As we all have heard already there was a short power outage Saturday at the park. I witnessed it 1st hand and it caused a wacky situation none the less. From a source who wishes to remain nameless I have new info. It was not just a quick flicker. It was a brown out. Not enough power getting around at the same time. This in theory should cause the power to cut off to avoid damage. Well the theory was correct. Apperantly someone knew before hand in the Paramount Theater as they were doing final work and they were getting low voltage. Did someone forget to tell Cinergy that the park reopened? Who knows!?

Most likely because of the parks hours for right now. The maps change a few times a year. Fireworks only happen if the park stays open 10 or later

I love SOB's Hate FOFs. I see no need for belts on one and not the otha

Wow The offseason lasted for ever. Today was the 1st day back at PKI for me. It was a nice morning. I figured I would sleep till 15 mins before I needed to leave and then get up well the best laid plans. My buddies in crime Chuck and Rob Showed up 15 freaking mins early! I grab my stuff mumble to my mom and leave. I wake up on the way there. We get there about 11:45 and wait..........................and wait. Ropes drop and were in. 1st ride of the day and the year at PKI was Top Gun. Little sluggish but other than that alright. Next up I went up to SOB to get the shakedown from Boobkinos himself Drew the sup. Said quick Hi and asked whats wrong. Well AZ was kinda busy so next we went to Adventure Express. If I had not seen the ride in the winter Pictured here I would of sworn someone threw a tarp on the train and beat it severly with a baseball bat. My lapbar was just sticking a bit actually but it was a pain. AE was AE same ol Same ol. Next up we decided on Racer. *flashback* Last time I road racer forwards was in 2002. IT beat me severly. /Flashback Today I took my chance again. With the new seatbelts. I got on and saw that PKI as usual took a reccomendation and made it useable. Most PTC's Stink for big guys. Well They made the belt FRICKIN HUGE and retractable! Plus the female end was up so you can ACTUALLY BUCKLE YOURSELF! Belts didnt slow down dispatch at all. I must say forwards flew today. It was running well. Well after that lets troll off for a sec and visit some jeffisms here. The scrambler is getting painted True Monster getting refurbished I couldn't tell any changes what so ever. Zehpher gets repainted Half true. While the art looks great the rest of the ride still looks like crap and now moreso that the top peices are fresh. TRTR New program False as far as I know AE enhanced False Well thats it for the jeffisms for now. Next up on my TR or Loonyness is WHATS MISSING FROM PKI! A ride has been removed! Ero Bungie is no longer at the park. Its place empty and no signage. The music video booth that I never saw work is gone. Now its just a pad. The water game across from Cyber Sez(thank you!) The water wheel on Wild Thornberries River Adventure. The popcorn stand in rivertown.(nasty stuff anyways) Ok with that over now back to this TR. We needed some Flyers after Racer. We go down and Our baby is there with a fresh coat of flyer paint and everything. Tub #6 and its like I never left the park. Snapping was great. After that we Decide to goto Beast. It was broke. We went on the train. I got to see into Boomerang Bay pretty well and it looks great. After that we lost it. We road a water ride. Wild thronberries. I got a bit wet but the elephant of doom was off. After that we go for our longest wait of the day. Scooby Doo's Haunted Castle. Full line and out to the exit, maybe 40mins. I scored Uber high cause of a wheel chair. Rob scored low and Chuck beat me. After that we wanted to see beast again. Closed Pitstop and then we see our lord and savior Jeff. I wave high and walk by as hes workin. We do one more flyers cycle. Im thristy and we goto Tuckers for water. Power goes down for a sec and comes right back up. We think nothing of it and we go and play in the arcade for abit. Then we notice No coasters are running Lets add this up Power failure=e-stop=possible evac=Pretty Funked up computers on all the rides that have them. I double check the area. Sling Shot is messed up and Delirum is testing. I go by and meet tiny. funking hes huge. Then we leave cause were hungry and everyone is on the midways. Not bad by any means but I didnt ride too much. I have a season pass though. Thanks to Joe for my Hookup!

I am not under any gag order and I saw it 1st hand. It was a quick power outage. That in theory should of tripped off all the saftey systems thus making a huge mess. I left at 4pm with no Beast of any kind. I was sad I have some photos and as soon as I get home I will do a special guest update

Easy but it will cost yaa 15 bucks

Those are stills from Robb Alvey's Coaster season 2003. I have the DVD. PKI policy is to not allow cameras onrides. But If your sneaky you can do it.

Of course some fans of jeffs go to far. Like this page right herehere

Yeah fond memories of my older brother screaming OWWW MY NUTS!

PTC issued a reccomendation to add the belts.

I believe this is ALL PTC trains. SOB may remain the same

Son of Beast maybe. The New hotel.

In BB The area has been moved and the dirt disturbed so much that I doubt many survived.
