BoddaH1994

There were several fights, and it just all around got out of hand. Don't expect to see Xtended Play anytime soon.

Welcome to PKIC! I hope you enjoy your visit to PKI. For any information you may need, click on "park info" on the top bar. That'll supply you with general park info, as well as nearly 1000 pics of the park itself. If you have any specific questions, don't hesitate to ask. Regards, Ryan PKIC staff

RCDB is a pretty trustworthy source, and makes no mention of the Bavarian Beetle being moved from PKI to another park, so I'm willing to say that it became the chassie of someone's '88 Buick Skylark.

Ah, you've got to love it when Maureen posts, becuase she's always a bringer of good news! I have had my eye on some merch, which I thought was priced fairly anyway, but if you're going to twist my arm and force me to pay less than $10 for everything.... I guess I have to. Once again, thank you for the info! Ryan

Those steps weren't closed until about 1990, I remember as a little kid being able to go up them. I miss that some. Is there a real reason why they were closed? I'm assuming that it was because of people throwing and spitting thing from them. It must have been interesting to be on a starecase 200+ ft in the air making your way to the top... Ryan

Once again, I have added some more photos that I found but never uploaded. These included general park photos as well as a few from the events at media day. Click here to check them out! Ryan

I believe that Beastbuzz thing was just a rumor that got out of hand. Don't be surprised if the announcement isn't much of anything. Just remember that Tomb Raider announcements in which it was something like. Announcement 1: "Tomb Raider: The Ride!" Announcement 2: "Tomb Raider: The Ride will be a dark ride!" Announcement 3: "Tomb Raider: The Ride will be a submersive dark ride!" It's drawn out without giving you any details to make sure that you stay tuned. Ryan

Yes, it was a terrible situation. Let's just put it behind us. All that's important is that it's not going to happen again.

I really don't know. All I know is that he was in a restricted area.

It's cancelled. It's not going to happen. Don't go to the park Friday expecting to see DJ Whatever becasue it's not going to happen. That's the bottom line. Ryan

I'm really not sure, but it sounds like a rumor. My guess is that he fell down the elevator shaft.

1983 - "May 13 - A teenager was killed after falling from the Eiffel Tower He was in a restricted area when he fell." Source: PKIC History section I believe he was on the 50ft observation tower. Although this happened on this tower, I am under the understanding that it isn't the reason why it was closed. Mainly it was from people spitting and spilling drinks from it to the partrons below. Ryan

Nah, it had to have been something else.....

A girl fell out of the Flight Comander, yes. It was deemed to be a design flaw in the restrains, to my understanding. The Oktoberfest part was close. From what I understand, the first man went in to retreave a hat and was shocked, and his friend as well as a security guard went in after them and they were both killed, but the original man survived. It was due to a problem with the recirculation system, I believe. Ryan

You may have noticed some errors on July 27-28th around midnight. This was due to routine maintanance by our wonderful server, Nexigen. Regards, Ryan

Wow... Black Friday is the day after Thanksgiving. You're thinking of Black Sunday. On that day, all of the incidents were due to malfunctions which had little to nothing to do with the judgement of the park.

I've never been to PKD, but regardless of what happens, my heart will always be with PKI! ***Moving to the Battle Room

lol.. Yeah, where are you coming from? Basically it's about 20mins north of Cincinnati. No matter which direction you're coming from, you can't really miss it. It's right off of 71.

<<After seeing the parade twice, we headed over to Spongebob to check out the A-Bomb explode in the background. I had never seen that before, but it is really random and seems to have been thrown in there as an inside joke possibly.>> At what point in the movie is that explosion?

I would never accuse PKI of operating a ride that isn't safe. Even a lot of the "out of towners" at Beastbuzz were commenting about how PKI has a reputation for safety.

What do you think of the Nickelodeon Celebration Parade? Personally, I am a big fan of it. Granted, I don't even recognize most of the characters, but the floats are really neat, the dancing is cute to say the least, and in the spirit of Nickelodeon, they have a whole score of upbeat music to guarentee that you leave in a good mood. Ryan

Wrong. Chef and I asked to be in.

True, but with metal detectors, they're more likely to end up seaching your bag and finding it.

It's less about terrorism and more about someone bringing a knife or gun into the park.

Pure speculation, but my deduction is that the campground attendance has dropped, while hotel bookage has risen in the past few years.
