I think you got it. That makes sense.

Not sure on Fury, but I remember Polaris being discussed as another option for Orion.

Timber Hallow could be a fun Rivertown dark ride/family thrill experience. Would be fun to explore some of the more mythological aspects of the areas other attractions, like The Beast, MT, etc.

Looks really cool!

KIC until opening day.

Grain of salt.

Bummer. Can I buy a piece of such cool history?

Love some Coney. Great to see this!

Even if it survived Paramount, I’m not confident it would’ve lasted through the beginning of the Cedar Fair era. If the ride survived Kinzel, I think it could still be around. But I’d like to visit a Kings Island where the ride wasn’t removed, and instead invested into. There are plenty of seasonal parks with iconic, historical dark rides that have become classics and it seems unfair that Phantom got the axe when it did. 20+ years later and it’s still being talked about.

I mean, I’d say we understand that there isn’t room up there, but in looking at some of the comments on Instagram this morning it looks like a lot of people thought it was legit. It’s not a wildly crazy concept given our proximity to opening day and the fact that the real ET offers dining… I’m all about a good joke, some have said I am one. But kind of a weird one that might mislead followers.

You know you’re truly in the Six Flags era when the park starts teasing about positive, added experiences for guests.

Nothing the parking garage coaster across the way hasn’t done already.

But where will they host Spirit Song?

Super hyped for Food and Wine returning. Had a great time last year and looking forward to enjoying it again. Hopefully these events only get better with time.

Appreciate you sharing this. Great interview! Seems like the general consensus is that a revival of the ride is well overdue.

Tend to gravitate towards the Mercado more times then not.

Brewhouse. A/C is always cranking in those bathrooms. Very clean and out of the way. Quiet too. That’s where my wife used to puke when she was pregnant.

I’d be down for this.

Looking like FoF will presumably live to see another season.

I firmly believe the men’s restrooms on International Street could benefit from not only one, but two loop-dee-loops. And a bar.

Just bring the ride back. Done the right way.

It’s always pretty nuts. But if you go in with tempered expectations you’ll have a good time.

No…?

The old beer garden patio was nice for a smoke.

Not too far. I tend to remember my own youthful, borderline insane ideas. Haha. Can’t believe it still. All in good fun.
