When we take down posts it's for a reason.

I'll be there. I doubt this will be the last one. Just look at the relationship Putz has with Cedar Fair.

I've heard otherwise... looks like we have something to look forward to tomorrow.

It's not Elvis, it's that darn Campbell's Soup can!!!

LoL... very funny. SOMEBODY has been shooting photos at Jungle Jim's recently, now haven't they? Very realistic work!

It would be in their best interest to have it up in time. I have faith in them.

The first year Tomb Raider: The Ride opened; there were on-ride photos you could buy. You could get the photo to just be of you on the ride rather than what people thought was the whole gondola. I am a proud owner of my own pic of me on the ride, I wish the cameras were still there because the pics were priceless and worth getting. The booth is still there. As you exit, it's to your left, but it has the canvas curtains hanging down over where the windows are. Does anyone know at what point in the ride they took the photos?

The park as a whole is kind of like Americana on steriods, it's that "home" feeling that really puts the park over the edge.

I'm not an employee, but this is my understanding on the rule: No prizes on games, so arcade games are generally ok, but games where you can win plush or things of that nature are not. Audience participation shows: School of Rock is ok, but you can't perform in the Karaoke.

I think I can agree with the comments above. Although the "kids" are is essentially Nick U, clearly children could be so bold as to explore the rest of the park and not step outside of their means.

Try a Krogers or Blockbuster in a surrounding city, or even PKI.com. They all have discounted tickets.

Now THAT is a good idea. You win the PKIC Nobel Peace Prize of the day. How about marquis around the park with ride closures and wait times? I love it.

I don't know if you've ever been near a burning house before, but the heat is a lot more ambient than you might think. We were burning down a house one time in Louisville (I'm a fireman, not a criminal!!) and I was probably 100 yards away and still had to throw my turnout coat on because of the heat. If a 218ft wooden structure went up in a crowded park I assure you, people would get hurt.

Come on! It's not as if we're speaking about a Disertation. It's a little fluff piece. My Gawd, if I'm not picking it to pieces it certainly must be ok. <G> Wow, that's a mountain out of a mole hill if I've ever seen one. I can see a strong sense of arrogance from that reporter. It's almost like he came down from big bad Cedar Point to visit our childrens' playground. I wonder what he knows about attendance figures...

I too recommend staying in Sharonville, although I must admit I never really have to stay in a hotel to go to the park. One thing that I would suggest is stopping by Guest Relations, which is immediately to your right as you enter the park. There you can get information about things such as the Baby Care Center and height restrictions for the rides. The people in GR will be more than willing to assist you with your new-found needs. Have a good time! Ryan

When we have it, we will give everyone time to adjust accordingly. I especially want people from out of town to make arrangements to be there.

I overheard the calls on the radio, and to answer your question, no. The ride is very reliable from what I can tell.

It's easy to say that, but when used correctly.....

I think you're missing the point of the detectors. It's more along the lines of preventing people from bringing smaller pocket knives or concealable weapons into the park. That's so if a fight were to break out, it wouldn't get escalated to a higher level than it already is. It offers a certain level of protection, but like you said, it is no shield.

We used to paint our walls with lead paint, and at the 1904 Worlds Fair, such items as Uranium neckalces were on sale while a new invention called the incubator was put on the row of joke inventions instead of next to things like the light bulb. Things change, get used to it. What does that have to do with being hyper sensetive? ....yeah, I don't get it either.

I'm sure I don't need to tell you guys this again but PKI's annual Niceklodeon Celebration Parade kicks off this Friday, June 9th. Expect an all new dance at those one!

To answer the threads above, I can personally confirm that employees can't be in the shows? Why can I do that? Because they tried to stop me from being in Magic of the Movies two years ago just because I'm associated with this site! Before you ask, no, I don't work for Paramount Parks!! Back to the matter at hand, this show is going to be GREAT this year!! I'm very excited for the entertainment department. The musicians are all very charismatic in this show and will only get better and tighter as the summer presses on. If you turn down the opportunity to see School of Rock, you're really missing out on something special.

With a new cast, a new crew, and most importantly a new attitude School of Rock returns to the Paramount Theatre to rock out a whole new generation of listeners! PKICentral has been given the rare opportunity to peak behind closed doors for a sneak preview of School of Rock! In this update you will see scenes from School of Rock rehearsals as well as various shots of cast and crew meetings. ALSO: For a little bit of insider information, the wonderful people from PKI's entertainment department have asked me to inform you that School of Rock will be opening its doors two days early! Saturday, June 3nd there will be shows at 11:00am as well as 12:30pm with shows at the same times on Sunday. There will NOT be any other shows this weekend after 12:30. Click here to see shots from School of Rock 2006!! A special thanks goes out to Matt Shafer for taking the time out of his day to accompany me to the theatre, Maureen Kaiser for organizing all of this for us, and of course Scott Hayward for allowing us access to the theatre. Thank you so much! Regards, Ryan PKICentral.com - One great rock show could change the world.

I think this has been brought up before, but you do still make a good point. How come 50 years ago when you could smoke everywhere except maybe a fireworks factory it never bothered anyone, but now anyone who doesn't smoke is automatically allergic to it? For some people it's legit, but I'm willing to say that for most it's just a victim statement. The problem with PKI's smoking areas is that they're just designated areas of the midway where you can smoke. So those who REALLY can't stand the smell of smoke basically have to walk through it regardless. I do agree, PKI needs to promote the smoking areas more. I agree with The Interpreter, it's much worse at Six Flags. I was down at SFKK last weekend and there were so many people smoking all around that I didn't even know they had it restricted until i saw a smoking area.

Just wait until you feel the comfort on those trains on Rumbler... you'll want to take a nap in there.
