  1. Check out: http://www.themeparkbrochures.net/ Just a heads up- it's brochures. KIC also has a great search feature with tons of topics relating to brochures & similar collecting: http://www.KICentral.com/forums/index.php?/topic/22677-kings-island-collectors/page-2?hl=brochures#entry446319
  2. Maintenance will also partake in a few trips on steel coasters (probably most rides) after a few test runs to "listen" for potential problems. It is amazing what can be heard on an empty train early in the morning.

  4. Gratuity required?Is the HoFG going to charge a gratuity % for all/ any service like other restaurants do with tables of 8 or more? I ask because this "requirement" would be a major shift in table service policies for CF. I typically overtip for good service because of my past being in the food service industry, but "requiring" a tip leaves a bad taste in my mouth as bad service should not be encouraged.
  5. He does have one just lion around.
  6. *I believe* if you contact the park, they may allow you to use the 2013 unused passes for 2014. Be sure to get clear confirmation of that.
  7. There will be a settlement. They don't want him back, and I can't imagine (even after being vindicated) he would want to go back. A hefty settlement is much more appealing than looking over your shoulder every minute of the day.
  8. ^ In addition to that, does KI actually want 2 separate walkways in close proximity of each other, that go in the same direction & ending at the same location thus duplicating all services (services being: food, drink, facilities, etc.)? If anything (but not anytime soon), I can see KI connecting to X-Base, but looping all the way around the former SoB footprint and/ or the land used for Animal Safari.
  9. Before I get into too much excessive detail, what are your ideas?
  10. Mrs. Brady by far. Any mom that can support oil that much will certainly win an oil bikini wrestling match! YOU'RE MY BOY BLUE!
  11. I wonder if parents that choose not to go to parks due to the threat of terrorism allow their kids to go to school?
  12. Do things like this concern me? Sure. They probably concern most people. Will that stop me from doing something? Other than vacationing in the Middle East- HELL NO!
  13. Not agreeing with the strategy does not mean they are unhappy. And let's face it, the strategy the last 5+ years has yielded zero results leaving vacant land. If Aurora wants the property used in a certain way, make it attractive for potential buyers by offering tax breaks or something of the sort.
  14. Is there another link? I don't see where it says they are not happy.
  15. ^ 7 days? I was thinking more along the lines of 2.
  16. One has to wonder how rare this actually is. If you think about it, Beast has been around for quite some time, has two large lift hills, and I'm sure both chains have been replaced on more than a handful of occasions.
  17. Oh my.......
  18. Many must agree with you or the expense of adding more Dinos would not be done.

  20. I call bull---- I was just at the park, with green spiked hair, and cannot find the rides you are referring to.
  21. Yes, definitely give the impression you will not steal. If you walk in with pantyhose on your head and scream "hands up!", you may not get the job.
  22. I'm in the wrong business. http://www.usatoday.com/story/money/business/2013/03/26/six-flags-ceo-hoists-massive-2012-payday/2022559/
  23. IMO the amount speaks volumes. An $8000 "award" is nothing for Disney, but it is probably enough to change their practices enough that if a guest cannot enter "x" ride w/o assistance, you cannot ride. It is too bad it needs to be that way.
