Parking Pass Operations for '07
There have been many rumor circulating about how parking passes are going to work in 07 at PKI. A lot of people have been under the understanding that the park will convert to parking stickers like Cedar Point. I'm very glad to let you know that I can confirm that parking passes will be treated just as it has been in past years -- scanned onto the pass, next year. I know a lot of people were concerned about this, so I'm glad it could be cleared up. Ryan

For those who have ridden X-Flight...
I've seen a lot of negative stuff about X-Flight on Coasterbuzz and was wondering how those of you who have ridden the ride felt about the ride experience itself. Ryan
-
Coaster Track Spotted at Kings Island!
They probably have a ton of trucks making the route.
-
what is your ideal rollercoaster?
I agree with Ronny. X Flight was an amazing ride. It was the only one we bothered to ride more than once at Geauga (Except Dominator because Bill insisted). I'd have to agree with Don and say that the Voyage was darn near perfect. It really just didn't stop until you hit the end. Element after element....

Kings Island Slapped with suit for $10M
I'd say there are two good possiblities about this incident: a) The kids were old enough to make their own decisions and he's just using that to stir up trouble. The kids weren't with the father anyway at the time of the incident so they were left unsupervised regardless.

X-Flight coming to PKI?
Troll, I don't care if you want to tell people it's going to be called Firehawk or not, but you will NOT post things about season pass sales because A) you probably really have no idea and remarks like that are degrading to the park from a business standpoint. Please refer to this site's terms of service before posting again.

Fly over pics.
Thank you for your interest in Gabriel's Bi-Plane-o-rama photos. He will be flying over the park as soon as he gets the next opportunity and you guys will be the first to know about it. We're just not sure when that will be.

IJST cars spotted on the Highway
My guess, and yes, this is simply a guess is that CF is holding Premeir to fixing the design flaws in the ride, which would explain why they're being shipped off-site (perhaps to Premeir themselves). Who knows, really? Excellent observation, nonetheless.

Kings Island is a steel recycling plant?
UncleHenry isn't being serious in his post. He's actually a pretty smart guy... despite the fact that he goes to UC.

More X Flight Dismantling
I think they should make it all sky blue so no one can see it, then as the train roars by you can't help but stop and laugh because.... what is that?

Son Of Beast: Out of the Loop!
None of what you said has been confirmed, the park said they "hope" not "will". Keep the faith my friend. If you build it, they will come.

Son Of Beast: Out of the Loop!
I think it has to do with the decision making process. If you recall, SOB was making circuits with dummies by August of last year.

X-Flight coming to PKI?
Joe, I think both you and I know that the lines will be long for this thing... maybe even very long. For anyone out there less familiar with PKI, please read our Trip Planner under the Park Info section to determine when is the best time to visit the park. That is of course IF it's coming to KI...

Great Wolf Lodge
The restaurant thing can happen anywhere... short staffing and hungry people is always a means for an altercation. Did you get to see the ultri-mini toilet in the cub club room? The lady there was generous enough to let us jokingly take about 3 different people back there to see the landmark. Did you notice the greatness of the proximity of the waterpark? You could go from slide A to slide B in a matter of seconds, rather than walking accross hot pavement for a quarter mile. If anything shoots that waterpark up on the list, that's it. Watercoaster is amazing. Isn't that buffet great? I met the guy who designed the arcade... I promised him I'd send him some photos... I guess I should get on that..

X-Flight coming to PKI?
Heck, I'm one of those people who hates everyone and everything and I still rode X Flight over and over at Geauga.

Loop Taken off Son of Beast
I think they'll try to scale down the current trains before anything... it's cheaper that way...

X-Flight coming to PKI?
Welcome to PKIC! Take your coat off, kick your shoes off and stay a while!

X-Flight coming to PKI?
Can't argue with your main point. At Winter SOAR last year people were climing into and out of The Vortex cars even though they were specifically told not to.

X-Flight coming to PKI?
I love it when people with hundreds of posts act like everyone else is a "fanboy". Plus, you know you would...

"Tigger Punches A Whiny Kid"--You Tube Title
Want proof that it's all a lie? "My son did nothing and the man clocked him in the face." Watch the video. It was an open hand. Even if Tigger did something unprovoked, the father is clearly making it out to be more than it really is.

Please leave the moderation to the moderators... Remember -- we're here to have fun, not to pick at what others have to say. That's missing the point. Geeze... everyone's a freakin' English teacher around here... ;-)
