Sure, you can argue that they can do it, but if they can build it in an area with a flatter grade or better quality land, they are going to do it. Not to mention, they have to build roads to get materials out there, etc.

For the people who haven't been around here a lot. The park does own a lot of land headed down towards the river, but it is very steep and probably not suitable for building supports on without serious reinforcement. You'll likely never see development all the way out there.

Cedar Point Fast Lane
teenageninja replied to Jasper's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
Just a bit of revisionist history here, and I'm probably wrong to some extent. I recall back in the mid 2000's they had a FastPass system for some of their bigger rides, Millennium Force, Dragster, etc. It was a hand stamp and they would tell you what time to come back. I definitely remember those two specific rides had the merge near the base of the ramp that goes up to the station. -
I think a lot of the disparity in crowds had to do with the fact that most people didn't know the park was open last week plus you have a lot more people off work this week than last week.

Spent so much time putting up lights and didn't even bring down the Firehawk sign?

Ideas for better Chills?

So a sorority house? Oh wait. -
Is it bought out due to the New Years Eve event?

Diamondback Track Inspection . . Just Curious
teenageninja replied to rlentless's topic in Kings Island
They absolutely do not walk the steel coaster track daily, if ever. I believe they have used X-Ray machines that run along the rails to inspect the track, but the maintenance requirements aren't as high as the wooden coasters. -
Lion Country Safari Mauling: An Untold Story

Right, so he was breaking policy, which was my point. -
Lion Country Safari Mauling: An Untold Story
teenageninja replied to KIghostguy's topic in Kings Island
How do you know that wasn't the policy? -
It's a fine IP, not great. It has a lot of history, so it doesn't have a lot of turnover like the Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network properties. I know my niece and nephew don't really care for Peanuts though.

Bring your own, they sell stadium seat cushions for fairly cheap.

I had a flight in at 11 PM that night and the landing was a little iffy.

Future plans for Firehawk's station discussion
teenageninja replied to Codyfryguy's topic in Kings Island
The Snoopy Boutique was the gift shop the referred to. -
What if Kings Island bought that monorail from Jungle Jim's and used it as transportation.
-
I'm surprised they actually went through with this. They dearly need it though. I'm surprised it's not purely for International workers. The price is pretty good. Probably far cheaper than what people are paying to live in the hotels around KI.

Not true at all. They don't dispatch a consistent amount of trains in an hour.

Kings Mills Antique Autos Path Discussion
teenageninja replied to sixohdieselrage's topic in Coming Attractions
The layout looks pretty decent, about what I was expecting, honestly. -
Taking away alcohol sales will have absolutely zero impact. When I was in Park Services, the trash cans in the parking lot and the bathrooms were full of beer cans and liquor bottles during Halloween Haunt. If people want to drink, they'll find a way. Don't even think about mentioning that they could up patrols in the parking lot, because it's nearly impossible to prevent. That hasn't been the policy in a long time. Who cares if there is someone drinking beer? It's their business.

Keep in mind that the Boo Blasters building also has the former Enchanted Theatre, as well as the dressing room for costumed characters, and the home base for Park Services as well. I would say approximately half of that building is used for Boo Blasters.

I imagine this coaster is going to be a record breaker. The tallest giga with a chain lift is 325 feet (Fury 325). Would be cool if it unseated Steel Dragon 2000 as the length holder as well.
