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.

UncleHenry isn't being serious in his post. He's actually a pretty smart guy... despite the fact that he goes to UC.

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?

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.

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.

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...

Anyone know when KI's official attendance will be released?

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..

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

I think they'll try to scale down the current trains before anything... it's cheaper that way...

Welcome to PKIC! Take your coat off, kick your shoes off and stay a while!

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.

I love it when people with hundreds of posts act like everyone else is a "fanboy". Plus, you know you would...

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... ;-)

If anything this will hurt the parks. One thing that's a real building block of a great park is a quality crew. If they're offering less than minimum wage, then their turnover is going to be amazing. I'm sure people will want to work there just becuase it's KI, but the novelty will wear off quickly.

They almost always repaint rides after they move them.

No, I'm not sure it's not from 1980. '79 is what I was told. Excellent observation.

Geauga Lake Today has just updated with more photos of the removal of X-Flight. Hmmm... I wonder if this topic will be in this particular forum forever. Ryan

You should get some rest, Bill. That cold sounds awful.

If you look back into the past sometimes you see a glimse of the future. Sometimes this proves to be very true, and sometimes things are ever changing and will never be anything like they were in the days of the past. In the spirit of the rhetoric above, PKIC is proud to share with you the 1974 and 1979 park Fun Guides filled with some very interesting information and historical photos. A special thanks goes out to CoasterMike for allowing us to share these photos with you. We have also added a photo of the elephant trail by WolferBearATL which has very historical significance. Click here to be taken to PKIC's extensive historical photo gallery to see these photos. We travel through life making up history as we go along. On that note, I want to talk about something current that certainly will go into the history books for those whose lives it affects. I, and the staff of PKICentral, would like to be the first to congratulate PKI's marketing communications manager Maureen Kaiser on her engagement this past December 21st to her boyfriend (now fiance') Tim! Maureen has been a very good friend to this site since our creation in 2003, and we are glad to call her our friend. We here at PKIC can not express how happy we are for Ms. Kaiser as she persues a new life of happiness. Let's not forget Tim, who I have met personally several times. He's a heck of a guy too. They're made for each other. Congrats you two! Best Regards, Ryan PKICentral.com - The future is not set. There is not fate but what we make for ourselves.

^ Patience, my friend... you'll know sooner than later what's up Kings Island's sleeve...

Yep, Ms. Kaiser called a very groggy Ryan at 8:15 in the morning to ask for some photos and got permission when I was off guard :-) Just kidding... I'm flatter that they're being used.

Isn't that the logo they've always used for the maxx pass?

Hmmm... you know, we didn't think the 18 photo limit would be a problem. Excellent photos. Just shows how even with a waterpark, Disney adds that little extra to raise the gnarleyness scale.
