  1. Does anyone have a link to the thrill seeker bundle? I'm a season passholder but taking my daughter and a friend on Mon. I saw it under daily tickets when I checked a couple of weeks ago but don't see it now, or forgot where to look. I thought it was available to buy throughout July?
  2. The coaster says it's 530 feet long. Is that per side? Cheetah Chase is 1700 feet long, so you'd think if this one is 530' per side, the park would advertise its (longer) length? smh.
  3. A quick glance at their website shows they're behind the slides at CoCoCay (Royal Caribbean's private island), so that's a good sign.. HW used ProSlide for Mammoth and CC, so I'll be curious to see what these guys have in mind for KI. May finally be a reason to start visiting SC again next year.
  4. Note to this (now fired) employee- please don't waste first responders' time with this kind of nonsense: https://www.wthr.com/article/tech/science/environment/no-black-bear-not-spotted-outside-holiday-world-black-bear-hoax-indiana-dnr/531-2ec4801e-aac2-4ff0-8e20-46cf237b49b5
  5. There's an iFly over in Liberty township.
  6. Yeah, it's confusing since the term Executive Chef gets thrown around a lot and people often think it means the No. 1 chef, which isn't always true. A good ex is cooking shows like Hells KItchen. the winner is called "Head Chef" or "Exec Chef" at one of Ramsay's properties, but that person serves under the "Chef de Cuisine" or something along those lines.
  7. It's def a slick presentation to be sure and while I think a sale-leaseback of some of its properties would help. the plan they have in place to increase attendance in 2023 is an oxymoron, given that to accomplish these things, you need labor, which is one area where this group wants to cut back. Did Chapek suddenly join this investment group? This smacks of his tenure at Disney, which for the parks anyway was to offer less and charge more.
  8. I know it's been played out, but for anyone thinking of showing up Friday:
  9. I'd like to see a poster of an old favorite-the "It's Fried!" concession stand (since renamed the more palatable "Coney Confections and Treats")
  10. haven't they used the picnic lounge for corp events? It's big, covered and can easily provide food/bev service. I'd guess its there.
  11. Inc. CF. there are only 3 water rides on the 'dry' side of the park-2 of which are basically next to each other. CF still is popular and provides a nice soaking (and I mean soaking!) if that's what you want on a super hot day, so I doubt it's going anywhere.
  12. coming soon (hopefully)-a commemorative piece of old Beast track w a COA for 197.90. I'd be tempted..
  13. I bought some cheap frames at IKEA for $5-6 each (I believe 11 x 14), and a sketch pad (not spiral bound) at Michaels (or Amazon). My wife then put a piece of sketch paper in the frame to serve as a 'mat', then centered the poster in the frame....they look nice and the investment was minimal. You don't even need a hook to hang them since the frames only weigh a few ounces. A simple push pin or nail will do the trick.
  14. In essence, this harkens back to the old paper ticket system, where you could grab another ticket after 2 hours even if you hadn't yet redeemed an earlier pass. I'd venture to say even in low season, the amount of FP you could get with the now retired system going one at a time after your initial 3 would be about the same, given that you had to space your first 3 out as well. If you were to arrive at rope drop, you could prob get through the whole park between Genie+ and/or standby, depending on the park hours. Sooner if you splurge for a a la carte option.
  15. Heads up for those looking to visit between 8/28-October 31 (weekends only). The park is limiting attendance due to rising case numbers. The county the park is located in currently sits at the highest level of spread (red) in Indiana's system.
