Kings Island angers special-needs parents
^^ Did you have issues at different parks because he thought the park was CP and did not have PE?

Kings Island angers special-needs parents
I agree with Vortex that the park is in a no win situation. Those families with mentally challenged members do not want special treatment, yet do not want to wait for a ride like everyone else? That is a bit contradictory. My daughter was diagnosed with autism, and I have not & have vehemently refused "special" treatment. Now she does have a mild case, which makes it much easier for us to deal with, but I want to press her into knowing how to deal with it as opposed to using it as a crutch (I understand many are not in the same situation). That said, I am confused as to why this is an issue. If there is a set ride time, why would anyone have to wait more than 10 minutes?

Most guests are terrified of heights than inversions. As a kid, did you have nightmares of falling out of a loop, or just falling from a high distance?

I thought Monroe's post was extremely well done. Some need to relax & have some fun with the speculation. We will all find out is due time.

According to the test seat, you are correct. Either the light goes green or it doesn't.

Well played Don, well played.- Starting to Decode 2014
We are not close to that stage yet. Yet....... The SoB topics are so numerous over many years & have so much imagination in their contents, it would be of epic proportions to reach an "SoB topic status". I have felt for many years that the KIC community would not be where it's at without SoB to discuss.- Starting to Decode 2014

The troll complains of the jackhammering of DB, but lets it be known SoB was their favorite coaster. Comedy truly has no boundaries.- Tomorrow is the day!

Good thing you went to KD yesterday. The park is closed today due to weather.- Kings Island Weather
The rain was quite heavy early today. When it slowed to just above a drizzle, Beast, DB, Racer, were all operating 100% (only 1 side on Racer). When the rain pretty much stopped, everything was operating very well and at 100% (except only one side on Racer which still was sending out less than full trains.) There was zero need for Fast Lane today. Longest wait was 45 minutes for FoF during the heaviest rain. Once the rain stopped, everything was almost a walk-on except FoF (20 min) & FH (30). Much marathoning was going on if there were no guests waiting for a specific car (Beast, FD, Racer)- Tomorrow is the day!
Thanks to MDMC01's buddy for making my daughter's day!- Ed Alonzo psycho circus 2

Just watched the 3:30 show. Very entertaining. A certain large dad represented KIC for the knife stunt. My manhood is still intact. I also met Ohiocolts after the show who was also representing KIC. It was great to put a face with the member.- Tomorrow is the day!
We just left there. @FoF- Tomorrow is the day!

There will always be some that believe SoB was a great coaster. Consider this: coaster polls are pretty much crap. Certain fanboys of parks or manufacturers will push their favorite to the top without experiencing other coasters. Enthusiasts will never agree which ride is the best. But when it comes to the worst? The majority if the same enthusiasts have put SoB near the bottom of every poll. When most enthusiasts agree, it's rather scary.- Starting to Decode 2014
KI needs a reliable coaster after the past decade+ known as the SoB debacle. While they are not "perfect", there is a no more reliable coaster out there than a B & M. But let's not get tunnel vision. The current area that is being modified could possibly be used for more than one ride. - Starting to Decode 2014
