Coney Island Permanently Closing
Wounded if they could move anything to Coney Mall at Kings Island. Someone said the light house and maybe the Moon Light Gardens sign. It’s not the same but at least with some of the old park.

Six Flags and Cedar Fair Merge
I happened goto Six Flags Great America this year. I was told Six Flags didn’t renew the license for Hanna-Barbera. They had a small kids area not themed anymore. So it looks like just Looney Tunes and DC.

What is on your Made to Thrill poster wish list?
Might be a really good time to do a Happy Land of Hannah Barbera. Seems The WB Discovery needs money right now. Plus Hannah Hannah Barbera cartoons are not really being used other than Scooby-Doo.

What food would you like to see added to the park?

Things I like to see yes I know it’s likely not going to happen. Return of some Hanna-Barbera characters, those fruit drinks they used to sell that looked like fruit. Special photo areas of old coasters no longer at the park.

How can KI bring back Phantom Theater?
The problem with dark rides they go take a lot of up keep to make sure everything works. Go ride Boo Blaster half the guns don’t work anymore. Also the effects on Mystic Timbers for some reason are gone. Kings Island does not have a good record of keeping themes working.

New Parking Signs in KI Webststore
Wish they could sell classic Hanna-Barbera parking signs from when I was little.

Squashmellow Shop closed (what’s next?)
Most likely Kings Island is having trouble getting more shipped to the park. I don’t know where they are made, anything that is imported is slow right now. Just my guess

Incident at Kings Island 5/22/21
Heard on 700 WLW around 5:00 am yesterday that Kings Island would put something out this week. Guess we’ll have to wait and see. I could be wrong on the day I do work early in the morning and my days get mixed up sometimes.

What’s with the new Construction Supplies delivered to the park
Realistically probably just maintenance on The Racer or Beast. With only 3 parks open I don’t see anything new in 2021 unless it’s something small. Season passes went on sale with out any announcement for 2021 Cedar Fair parks.

Italian Job (BLSC) featurette featuring Kings Island.
Don’t know why this coaster was not put in Action Zone. Just seems out of place.

Kings Island 50th Anniversary Ideas
I hope the park will renamed The Beastie and pant it yellow like it used to be. Also repaint the lift hill of The Racers Red, White, and Blue again. Bring back the old Adventure Express soundtrack in the station.
