The Scrambler celebrates 45 years of spins and smiles
PhantomTheater replied to DonHelbig's topic in Kings Island
The Kings Island Scrambler gave me my most interesting Scrambler ride last year. I was with a group of friends and rode with two other people, with me the smallest in the middle. On one side was a female friend, on the other was her ex. Her directions to me was to sit in between and prevent him from attempting anything. So I got squished in between them during the ride and his arm around me trying to get to her. By the end my arm was stretched across the back of the seat preventing him from touching her, however he didn't realize it and was caressing my arm. Then to make the ride weirder, the ex's current girlfriend was looking on from the planter bench across the midway. The situation became to be refereed to as awkward Scrambler stuff. So here is to the Kings Island Scrambler, giving me a ride I will never forget. -

Kings Dominion's Park Map Gets Worse
PhantomTheater replied to bkroz's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
The entrance did use to be where the exit currently is, sort of. The exit has not moved in it's 50 years of operation, but the original entrance was next to it and went to the original loading platform. In 1995 she was modernized and the platform consolidated into the current set up. -

The entrance sort of reminds me of Canada's Wonderland's Ghoster Coaster's entrance.

It does have a wooden support system, therefore it gives off the appearance as such.
