They were relocated... mainly to the Cincy Zoo if I'm not mistaken.

^ Yep, I think the nail was hit right on the head.

I like disaster transport a lot actually. Don't know what it is, but I always make sure I ride that one when we go up there....

Meh... everyone's an expert. Then again, you're making the same claim that others are... that you know something that we don't. Many people still work at the park in the off season. From executives in the admin building attending high class luncheons about future attractions and park expansion with info that must be kept under wraps, to games employees counting stuffed animals in a shed, to grounds crew workers and random kids cleaning parts in a wash bin for maintenance. Just cause your there in the off season doesn't mean anything. I never claimed to know everything, or nearly everything. I said it was funny to read most of the posts on here, and laugh at them because of the information presented. I will never post information on here that I am not 100% positive about- but I guess that is what makes this a forum. Think of it this way: when you were a kid, I'm sure you'd ask Santa for everything under the sun for Christmas. Half the fun of look forward to Christmas was finding out what he brought you and what went the way of fluff. Same goes with a lot of the information here.

... no Hard Rock Park?

Sponsorship of this event ranges from being in the thousands of dollars to just a few hundred. Not sure what KI's contribution was, but it could have been anything.

Nah... I'm guessing it's a good 'ol sign of goodwill.

Likely you'll see the weekend added instead of Bare Bones Nights, although that is no indication of the success of Bare Bones.

It was made very clear in another topic that the heckler was given very explicit instructions not to make fun of peoples' handicaps.

If I had kids and I found out they were doing something like that to her, it'd all be over for them...

Maybe that's an opinion that you'd consider, however you're not a decision maker at the park and Tomb Raider is staying.

Yep -- that's a theory. Cows... put out... a lot of methane gas. Also, geological conditions cause for large eruptions of greenhouse gases from the ocean floor. It's all very natural. But also, you can't automatically assume that an increase in temperature is a direct result of greenhouse gases. Don't get me wrong, I believe in the global warming theory, but the lesson of the day is: don't trust everything the media tells you.

First of all global warming is a joke .. its really not happening .. the earth is cooler now than it was 20 years ago, with all the regulations that they have now and days its kept the earth a lot cooler than its ever been. Hot spots happen, when one thing happens the world goes nutz and everything must change. Also the earth is due for an ice age, no not in our life time and not in our grandsons or daughters but its suppose to be happening soon. So thats my 2 cents on global warming but back to the original topic I only live about 15 - 20 minutes from the park so gas prices dont really effect me going or not, and yes I drive a 18 miles to the gallon gas guzzler jeep wrangler Global warming is happening. My sister lives in alaska-the glaciers are slushy. The polar bears are in trouble because the ice sheets are not as big as they used to be, and that affects their ability to hunt and survive. When I lived in Virginia sandbridge beach in virginia beach area was receding to the point the houses are partially sitting in the ocean. Look around other parts of the world-how can we deny climate change is not happening? Just because climate is changing doesn't mean that it's a result of greenhouse gases, and furthermore, it doesn't necessarily even mean that greenhouse gases are the result of humans.

I can confirm from 'the powers that be' that The Vortex is NOT sinking and there currently aren't any plans for The Vortex to go anywhere anytime soon.

You should have kissed Paramount goodbye back in July of '06. If you visited the park in July of 06, you'd have never known that Paramount was gone...

Again (from the article) they're not even sure if it's going to affect the Orlando parks. There are 10 million people a year who visit the Magic Kingdom alone. If the park needs to report its contents to the Department of Homeland Security in order to have the chance to make things just a little safer for them, I'd say it's a small price to pay.

My mom's a 2nd grade teacher and one of her students' grandfathers plays Scuba Santa.

Time to admit... I live 10 minutes from the aquarium and have never been there.

Here's an idea: I can assure you that Tomb Raider is NOT being removed. In fact, Kings Island is putting a lot of money into the ride to get it in a better working order for next year. Just trust me, the ride will be fun again next year! That is my official word.

Meh... everyone's an expert. Then again, you're making the same claim that others are... that you know something that we don't.

I know this was mentioned in another thread, but in 1975 Evil Kenievel jumped 14 Greyhound buses in KI's parking lot. If anyone wants to see the footage, here it is.

Kings Island already has something"-central" to post rumors on.

I wonder if Craig Ross will be in charge of it.

Actually, I think the lodge bought it back.

You won't see the new sign done until after the 1st of the year.
