^holler! Haha, I never got my rootbeer! lol

I take it, "It's a Small world" isn't one of your favorite rides? lol

If I get married in a park, I am sure it will be at Disney. Or maybe even Cypress Gardens.

My apologies for the misinterpretation...I for one found Georgia Cyclone to be particularly rough, in my lone visit to SFOG. Forces are one thing, but the train to my tastes did not seem to ride too well. I guess the best word I could use, was it seemed bumpy!

^Go when I do! lol. On non-rainy days, I have never waited more than 20 minutes. Some times it seems like I have the best luck with ride lines!

Someone likes 'em rough and forceful! Ugh, I can't stand the Georgia Cyclone. Actually more than the ride itself, I CANNOT stand its queue line. Talk about a firetrap! Not to mention, you get 380 people in that small wooden box in the hot Georgia summer at 90degrees. And there are some strong odors to be certain!

That was a nice article, I really hope that they can pull the park back together again. I don't want to see what happened to LL, or GL, happen at CLP.

Eh, its not too bad. But it isn't the sharpest picture that the man who took that photo has ever taken! Some of the edges look a tiny bit blurred. Oh well, all that aside, it still isn't a bad picture from the best photographer that I know!

Oh well that is awesome, I am also class of 2010! Facebook me! lol

Yep! I am a Flyer! What year did you graduate?

Interpreter, Kings Island also has edgy shirts of that nature as well. I can't remember if they are in Attitudes or Thrill Seekers. The shop is in Coney Mall across from The Racer entrance though. They have many many shirts with suggestive coaster content! There are many Shaggy shirts speaking of the "munchies" which I suppose is relatively tame.

Kings Island: Every time a child cries, we sell some blue ice cream! It almost never fails, whenever I am visiting the park and walking through Nick U, there is almost always a parent buying their crying child some blue ice cream!

Ok, I missed the disclaimer about "minus the theming". Because as far as the ride as a total package, I originally, no matter how painful the ride was enjoyed the thrill. So as far as a total package, theming plus ride, I can't fathom a park deliberately putting in a ride meant to be boring...that struck me as odd.

Oh really, you mean to tell us that a big time amusement park put in a ride that was not suppose to be as thrilling as other rides of the same type? They would do that intentionally? I highly doubt that, even if it was Paramount.

Monster Plantation, is a fun ride. Definitely a nice change of pace from the hot Georgia sun. I certainly enjoyed it on my trip to SFOG in 2005. Actually I enjoyed everything that I rode at SFOG on that trip, I have to make it down there again!

Haha, alright, I can see how he was being humorous. It just didn't register at the moment that I read it, the internet sure is a funny thing.

I don't care what you say, I will not test it at 3:47pm. Ps. Don't you have a test to study for, I don't want to see your gpa drop below 2.0. What on earth did I do to you? I have no tests for about 2 weeks. I was stating that if you are on EDST, then that is remarkable that you still can do that conversion at such an ungodly hour, I am fresh in college and was so tired at that moment this morning It would have taken me a while to do that conversion. How did you take that as an insult? I really was not meaning to insult you, at all, I am extremely sorry if you took it as that way. I really am, I in no way meant to insult you, and am sorry.

^And at 3:47AM no less Monroe!

ValleyFair is getting trash cans, a new Halloween Haunt attraction, ticketing system upgrades and other general park improvements

It seems to me that Cartoons have gotten edgier in what they portray over the last ten years. I can't stand to watch most of the stuff on Nickelodeon anymore. CatDog was always a weird one in my book. All That got more "thug" "inner-city" however you prefer. I will not say the shows are worse than the ones I watched, because it is a different era, I just feel that Fairly odd Parents can't live up to Rocket Power which taught some great lessons. Or even Rocco's modern life or Doug. This is all my opinion and I won't debate anyone, I feel we are all welcome to our own tastes and identities, I just feel that recent cartoons except for Spongebob are all about entertainment through the exploitation of the current culture of today's young people. There is nothing wrong with this sentiment, I just prefer my cartoons to relate to ideals in my life and have some message to them. I just don't see this today except for in a limited number of cartoons. I also like comedy, I can laugh in many instances in Scooby or Tom and Jerry, even Spongebob. I never have found CatDog or any other Nickelodeon show created in the last several years to be funny however.

Oh, Happy Day!

There is a jukebox in the Waffle House, next to my house. There is also one at the TJ Chumps, and in the BW3's. Also there is one in Perkins that only has like classical music. So to answer you question I see the old ones, and even the new computer interface ones in places all over.

Hmm, I doubt you see the land not all sold off. Maybe some of it will stay and there is a Zoombesi Bay of sorts looked into. Something along the lines of a revenue intensive low operating expense Family Entertainment Center was what I felt would be well suited to the area in addition to keeping the water park. The thing is, Cedar Fair has acknowledge all over the place that Geauga Lake was losing money, and thus its closure. Sure bringing some more GL back would help with the naysayers, create some free publicity, and create a little goodwill for the area however, that just doesn't seem like enough to get CF any more profitable. I don't see it happening...I hope it does, maybe they have intentions on keeping the Big Dipper, I just can't see past the fact that GL was closed. Usually management doesn't change a decision like that, not after everything has been demolished anyways. I guess we'll see.

So, first off, I like this idea. Like Jzarley stated, it should be pretty low cost, be a draw, and if people are screened before they hit the stage, well then it should be OK! The only thing that concerns me, and I know I shouldn't be concerned because this is Disney that we are talking about, but will this be truly American Idol, or International St. Bandstand at Kings Island, all over again?

The lettering on Nighthawk looks similar to the lettering of Dominator...
