Man oh man, looks like BSC has its fire scene back and its better then ever! Serious note: Hope nothing was damaged other then the transformer or maybe the dinosaurs history repeating itself I see.
-
I'd be interested to hear which control panels you think are removed in the off season. replaced, rewired, whatever they have to do, i'm not saying that they are physically removed, that my friend, would be an unintelligent assumption. replaced!? rewired!? what ones?
-
I prefer backwards. I can still ride the ride backwards too! but for some odd reason the people behind me get mad(wait technically they would be in front of me if i was looking at them right?)
-
Oh my gosh, we're getting a WindSeeker?!
-
One reason I love Sling Shot is when you're being launched and you see the two steel towers disappearing and then for a couple seconds you see nothing but the sky, no towers, no Eiffel Tower. And then you're flipped over getting a quick view of the Eiffel Tower and then looking straight at the ground. eh good times. But yea it does get quite boring if you ride it over and over a lot
-
Sling Shot takes the cake as the most scariest ride at KI nothing holds a candle to it. (yup that's right not even Drop Tower compares too it.) And if you don't believe me, go buy your ticket at opening for ten bucks a person and ride it later on in the day.

1.. If you're talking about me, have the guts to say my name. 2. No one said anyone called the park and threatened anything 3. It's "utmost," not "up most" Well if you're the guy LOL. Also you're the guy who accused me of trying to get 13yr old boys to come to KI on Pride night, a shame that a mod took it out of my signature and deleted your post. Maybe KIC members need to see how hateful and ignorant you really are.

I think he's saying that someone did... I got the impression that he works in the call center perhaps? *runs and hides behind a desk* what desk you may ask?
-
Just to add a chime in here. Whoever threaten the park with a law suit because of the ERT change, you're now my new ringtone. (Caller claimed to be a valued member here with the up most respect also) May I remind those who bought the golden season pass and any pass from KI for that matter, look on the back and read.
-
Maybe we can have a mini KIC meet up
-
like 10% of people who show up there show up in their drag. If you're wife wants to see a cool drag show, i know at certain times(they'll announce over the park speakers) when the show will start, but here n there you will see a drag queen riding a ride
-
My bad. In an email it was sent to me backwards. Fixed it.

This guy has full rights to sue. You're not a jury and thank god for that. By the way some of you are posting about stress and theme parks, using that logic seems like every time you visit a theme park it would be stressful and not fun. I can count on one 2 fingers how many times I've visited a theme park its been stressful/Conflicted. Maybe he was having trouble finding attorney because of how much he can pay? We don't know what caused the delayed filing. Maybe he wanted to make sure he went over Disney policy and made sure he had enough money to go through the whole trial? Maybe he was making sure he was in the right to file such suit against Disney. The article/He claims that he suffered dysreflexia. Did you know that could of led to seizures, stroke, and even death? I mean would you be posting the same crap you're posting now if the man died? Oh I'm sure it would be okay to sue if he would of died, makes perfect sense, but god forbid that he lives and still sues? Maybe some of you should become quadriplegic and be told some of the things you're posting. See how you like it then? I bet you guys would still ride your favorite rides.... Also another note about dysreflexia, did you know this can also occur when the bladder is even slighty overfull? it can occur so easily through daily activities. If the man didn't file suit do you think the policy would of changed? Maybe you should read and think about what you're posting before you actually click post.

I bet many didn't know this but When DZ opened it didn't have seat belts, also this video is so cool Also notice how it use to spin all the way to the tipy top :>

There was Days of Thunder in Action theater, before there was even a go-kart track in Action Zone(correct me if I'm wrong about the go kart track) And I believe that shirt is from the era when DoT was in Action Theater.

KI rents out its parking lot for events. Sometimes you'll see car shows that take place there too.

Lawsuits Part of the Amusement Park Business
Cody replied to The Interpreter's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
So when you fall, and end up with those injuries and you're insurance(if you're even lucky to have Health Insurance) won't cover even half of your bill, Will you be paying out of your pocket? Also FYI most Ligament surgery's cost anywhere from 5 to 50 grand. -
Lawsuits Part of the Amusement Park Business
Cody replied to The Interpreter's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
All I can say is, you would probably do the same thing if it happened to you. I mean If you went to Kings Island, and missed a step and it caused you "partially disabled because of polio, sprained right knee and have to go in surgery for a torn ligament" I wouldn't be surprise to see your lawsuit. You can't really say how "pathetic" these lawsuits are until you're in their shoes. -

Worlds Fastest Roller Coaster
Cody replied to Oldschool75's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
Really? I especially can't imagine thinking Kingda Ka's layout is better than any other coaster, but as far as view... Which is the "nice" one? Hmm I don't know what your vision of a nice view is , but I call seeing the sun set behind the tree lines a beautiful view. -
Worlds Fastest Roller Coaster
Cody replied to Oldschool75's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
looks like flying chocolate bars to me Anyways my two cents. 1. Fast 2. Boring Layout 3. I wouldn't travel all that way just to ride it, when I can go ride Kingda Ka only a few hours away and enjoy a better layout and a nice view. If they're going to make it 150/mph they should at least go ahead and make it the tallest coaster on the planet. IMO -
Zebra strips track would be my preference with pink flamingo color supports

I wounder if there is anymore Paramount merchandise, I would enter that contest in a heart beat!
