Correct me if I am wrong, but I am pretty sure they removed the "Splashdown" part of BLSC. The drop is still there obviously, but the waterworks have been removed.

Truth? What is this "truth" that you speak of?

Talk about a serious bump! LOL I had no problem with the service. The fresh out of the oven pizza was ok but does not even compare to our beloved Laroses found at the Island. The prices are a little high for what you get, but with my ACE (American ChuckE Enthusiast) Card, I was about to save a little money that day. Thanks for bringing this thread back. I had actually forgotten all about it. I noticed that the You Tube links were no longer working, but that has now been fixed! Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Bill

Here is a little video I cooked up with footage from Winterfest 2005 in it. Kinda gives an idea what they had to offer.

Just because someone is on a laptop does not mean that they are online.

I am pretty sure he is saying that is his favorite part since that is HIM during that segment of the video.

BavarianBeatle, you are my new best friend! You are correct, that is the best album from the mighty Zep. With Led Zep 4 coming in right behind that! Thanks for all the kind words everyone.

Just as a heads up, it should read "Worlds Longest Kickline Attempt"

Found this via Fark.com this morning. Be on the lookout for the pic with the derailed coaster train! North Korea Amusement Parks

Dude, seriosuly! Why you have to go and make me tear up here at work! I am kinda shocked that as light of a crowd that was there, we didnt run into you guys at all. Glad you had fun!

A few of the KIC staff members will be there today. Kinda sad, one of the things I am looking forward to the most is some Panda! Avatar, you got me HOOKED last time we went! See you all on the midway....one final time. (This year at least)

I might be wrong but isn't this where the "Kings Island Walk Of Fame" is supposed to be next year? I would love to see that area devoted as a historical museum devoted to the park. Old ride signs, maybe even actual ride parts like a Cobra train or something like that?

I am pretty sure you got to check out Peanut doing her thing. Here she is dancing during the 80s show: From what I can gather, her parents are friends of the performers of the show. Here is a topic that I started about her.

I LOVE how detailed your trip reports are! Loved having you along for Media Night. Glad you had fun! Looking forward to part 2!

Took care of it for you. Glad to hear VF is up and running again!

Was it one of the three Christmas trees sitting on that raft?

If someone had any doubts that they do not allow you to take pictures on their rides: KABLAM! However, they do not allow you to talk on cell phones while riding. One of my best memories from the park: I asked the lady running the Tornado if it was possible to just let the train drive thru the station without stopping for a second ride. Sure enough, right thru the station we go! Slowed us down a little but never came to a stop.

When you say "that area", you mean Nick U area, correct? After spending darn near 2 hours in the Howl-O-Fest area this past Sunday, I seen lots of HB but not a single Nick to be found. Hmmmm.... Quote of the day! Don't push the Boddah!

Not only were they back, they were dressed up for the event! VERY nice touch!

Didnt that pot at the top of the second lift hill drip water at one point?

I hope they offer english courses at this "Collage" you want them to make!

Yeah, we watched it as well. I cant wait to see the finished product. Avatar, I heard you would be joining us on Friday! Will be nice to see you again! Get ready for a really fun night!!

As I was filming it, I was wondering how many KIC members I was getting on tape. There is a darn good chance that if you were in that line, you are in that video!

According to this article from WLWT, the piece after the splashdown will be the very last piece put in. Hmmmmm

MYSTERY SOLVED! Well, as "Hamoperator" has said, this turned out to be his daughter, Peanut! After a couple of quick PMs sent back and forth, he send me a couple of pictures of the future Kings Island star with Carmen Electra! Thanks for sharing!
