In this Dayton Daily News picture, why does the fountain pool look brown?

I know multiple times last year and the year before, there was a large Full Throttle truck outside the front gates giving cans away for free.

Well, Kings Island opens tomorrow, so I decided to make this poll for fun!

Before last season I had been using a plastic souvenir Beast cup I bought at a shop in the park. They didn't even sell it at the stand, and they refilled it all the time, it was the same size as all the other souvenir cups. Last year I switched to the large Diamondback refill cup, because it's a better deal.

I would be pretty angry if Kings Island did this. I am glad to hear that they will be offering refills for past years Souvenir Cups.

That's true. That's even more of a reason they should use the same set for Down Home Country as Way Too Much T.V. ,if they are doing them on the same day.

if you look closely, it appears as if the top of the surfboard is orange

It really seems like kids are taking well to Snoopy and the Peanuts gang!

Has the indoor section of the queue been updated at all? Any character or anything put in the Maestro's box?

Well, it is the same set as least year, with the TVs added and a new drop. When I first saw this, I wondered if there would be a 2nd show in the Festhaus (like last year) maybe to debut later in the season? A 2nd roll-down drop and a different graphic on the screens is all it would take to make a "different" set. Well Down Home Country is set to start in Festhaus later in the year. So they pretty much had to keep the set for DHC, because for a couple months they overlap. Where they could be doing Way Too Much TV one day, and Down Home Country the next, so they have to keep the set the same.

Exactly. We could paint some details on the newer blank walls, so they look like buildings. Freshen up some faded older paint. Fix the curtains and windows in all the buildings so you can't see that they are fake facades with trees poking through the windows. Trim some trees in the fort, pain a new sign for the fort, plant some easy nice simple landscaping. I think it would turn out great.

This sounds like an awesome idea. Another great way for fans and park reps to interact. If this ever becomes a reality, I could see getting a volunteer group together to fix the Crypt up a little, and spruce up the train theming!

Blue deliciousness?

Or he looked at the forum on the KI Facebook page about Basketballs, and saw the deflated thing. Could be either one

They've changed the forecast at least twice a day for the past 8 days. I am sure it will change again my tomorrow morning, and again by the evening!

I think I am going to start a forum on Kings Islands facebook about the basketballs. If you are on Facebook, go to Kings Island's page and go to the topic on there that I will start, and say whether you are annoyed by people bouncing the basketballs in the park. EDIT: Forum is on Kings Island's Facebook page under the "Boxes" tab (The tab where you can find the 5@5 and stuff)The Forum is called "Are you annoyed by people bouncing basketballs in Kings Island"

Awesome PTR. It looks like a really nice park. I hope I can make it there someday.

As a lifeguard myself I understand where your coming from. But as a 11 year old I was at the park for hours on end by myself. I really think parents should be able to make this decision. I didn't say it shouldn't be allowed. I am just saying it annoys me personally, that parents just drop their kids off at places like Kings Island and public pools, and expect their kids to be looked after.

It kind of annoys me when parents just drop their kids off and expect people to baby sit them even though it isn't their job. I'm not talking, teenagers, I'm talking kids, like 11,12,13 year olds. Like at my subdivision where I live they have a large community pool. I know a lot of the lifegaurds there, and they say that parents drop their kids off there all the time, and expect the lifegaurds to "babysit".

*Sigh* The theming used to be such high quality. Maybe someday Kings Island will have an owner that really takes theming completely seriously again. With intricately themed areas, and really high quality theming. I just wish I could have experienced the park when it looked like this.

Maybe they don't any more. I could have sworn they did, but I could be wrong.

They still cycle through different heights, some fountains turn off and the main ones get higher, etc.

Actually I believe I read somewhere that Flight Commander used to not have a seat divider before the incident. Making it possible for someone to fall out if they wee riding alone, which she was. After the incident, the ride had a seat divider added, and reopened for a short time before ultimately being closed. So yeah, half of Selective's "facts" are wrong too...

I am not sure exactly what pond it was in. But, Selective, I am fairly certain your Rumor that you've heard is totally and completely false.

That bridge would be nice to have! I wonder why they took it out? Also, The Flying Eagles were amazing. Don't knock them 'till you try them! They weren't hard to control. Some say they were one of the most "snappable" sets of Flying Scooters.
