I got in 4 haunts last night and a ride on Vortex before leaving at 11:30. The rain helped and it wasn't very crowded when I left.

Halloween Will Be Scariest Ever, Park Officials Warn
Cabana Lady right? Sorry, inside joke. Yes, 2007 season pass holders can attend HH free. Now come 2008, it is expected to change. Lol, thanks. I figured that it was still free to pass holders, But I figured that I might as well make sure before I drive over there sometime this october.

Halloween Will Be Scariest Ever, Park Officials Warn
Halloween Haunt is still free to passholders for this year right? My friend said she knows some people who are working Halloween Haunt and they said pass holders don't get in for free.

September 23 tickets $19.95 on pki.com
Are those prices on Halloween Haunt tickets for buying online only? If so, what would the price be for buying a ticket at the park? I'm asking for a friend who doesnt have the internet.

Distance To Kings Island
I'm in Hamilton, so about 30-40 minutes. All depends on traffic.

Annoying habits of guests
I was at the park a few weeks ago and we were on Congo Falls and a girl wasn't tall enough and the parent flipped out yelling "SHE RODE THIS JUST 5 MINUTES AGO!" The ride op was like "Then why isn't she wet?" And then the woman flipped out yelling about how Kings Island was retarded... I hate when parents think the ride ops won't check a childs height... I as well hate those basketballs and the people who try to start rumors about a certain ride.

Son of Beast to open tommorrow?
I have made a lot of posts onto this site. But I have restrained myself from making any posts as to the Son of Beast's Reopening. Back when the rides incident 1st happened, I stated that they need to take as much time as needed to ensure safety on the ride. But this has been my only comment. ( granted I repeated it a few times ) But to be honest, even by Christmas last year, I was expecting a 4th of July opening for the ride. Why? Because it would make perfect sense from a business point of view. For one, it makes sense for July 4th to be an appropriate deadline. This gave the park roughly a full year for investigation and necessary change. There is no chance that anyone could get hurt on this ride now and even attempt to claim that Cedar Fair did not take full responsibility and time to fix the original problem. Which is good. ( in other words, no idiot wanting a claim could try to say that they made a quick fix ) Another reason for the 4th of July is that this date is pretty much the same as a green light for business. In a way, the 4th is a turning point for people, especially people who are in school to realize that their vacation time is going quickly, and they want to make the most of the time that they have. This is the same for vacationing families. This results in massive crowds at...well, Amusement Parks. The turning point for the season is on this date, and any money lost in the first several weeks of park operation can still be made up for through peoples desires to come back to the park for this new attraction. Not brand new, but new for the 07 season. By the 4th of July, many local visitors for example have already visited the park, and spent their money. Well, this is a reason for them to visit again, and spend more. Not only that, but this would be an incredible way to kick off the 4th of July celebration at the park! Imagine it. No announcements. Just rumors. No press conferences to confirm expectations. Imagine if Cedar Fair just wants for you to go online oneday, or visit the park, and BOOM, goes your heart and your imagination. ...IT'S RUNNING!!!!! And if you are lucky enough to be there when that happens, then it comes out to being equal opportunity to get onto the ride. If it does not open by the 4th of July, you can all send me messages with squatting tomatoes hitting me in my smiley face. But if it does, and I am quite sure that it probably will, then just sit back, relax, and enjoy the roar of the son, again, for the 1st time. m.f.21 There is ALWAYS a chance for someone to be hurt on any ride. Luckily, it rarely happens. I for one say let them take their time with it, let them break in the wheels, and then reopen it when they know for sure everything is in working order.

New and improved SOB.
Lol! I actually knew that... I don't know what I was thinking when I posted that it was brand new... I think maybe I meant to the park.

Cincinnati Reds to Sign Autographs at KI
LOL, Didn't Narron consider them to be a playoff contender at the beginning of the year? Honestly, they have the talent... But they just aren't performing.. Aside from Griffey and Hamilton. And then you got Dunn either striking out or hitting a homerun. Aaron Harang is doing his job as well..

Why is the Vortex rated a 4?
Well, AE doesn't really beat me up or anything.. I think it's a fun ride, but it doesn't really beat me up or thrill me or anything.
