It's Fast, It's Full of Venom... and It's Here!
Beast1979 replied to BoddaH1994's topic in Kings Island Central Newsroom
All things considered, the Rivertown area looks fantastic! Landscaping looks great and well decorated. Only 12 more hours! -
The first words out of my mouth when I saw me on TV: "My voice sounds like THAT?!?" In other news, After seeing so much footage of Kings Island and Diamondback, I couldn't be more excited. I'd be lucky if I get 30 minutes of sleep tonight, I can't wait to experience this landmark beast! Now, to go watch "National Lampoon's Vacation".

1620........ Jackson, who can't help it, he lost a poster because of that!

Diamondback Construction Thread (Updated 3-19-09)
Beast1979 replied to BoddaH1994's topic in Kings Island
http://www.wlwt.com/video/19207520/index.html Official POV. Is it just me, or does it seem a lot slower then I thought? Also, the entire area around the ride looks, ehh, incomplete. But hey, I shouldn't be complaining untill I ride it. -
That article talks about how Delerium is a capacity eater. IF the crew is working efficiently (Which it usually isn't), then the line moves on through. Most of the time though, I'll find myself waiting quite a while for Delerium.

Will you be able to sleep tonight before riding Diamondback?!
Beast1979 replied to tigellinus's topic in Kings Island
In a word? No. I am so excited to be able to finally be able to enjoy Kings Island again, I'm having trouble concentrating on anything unrelated to KI. Not to mention, that beautiful steel masterpiece called Diamondback! When I saw Diamondback rise, never did I imagine I could be one of the first riders!

Sometime tomorrow.

Just finished the interview about half an hour ago. It went great, expect to see lots of pictures of me on rides. live as in they're cutting into doctor phil? Or is it going to be on at like 5 or 6? No, live as in there with me. Out of 256 people, I was choosen because Don Helbig recomended me. No joke! Each reporter said that "Don Helbig told me your a cool guy to go to and that you're really hooked on it....." The interview will be on TV sometime tomorrow. I will have a mention in the paper on Sunday.

I've got a live interview with Channel 5 at my house at 3:30
-
No problem, I mentioned in my Enquirer interview about me being a member of KIC and gave the link to KICentral.com. Shhhh.........
-
Let's hope for a slow news day tomorrow, if so I'll have a live interview as a follow-up story.
-
It all depends on how the day goes tomorrow. If the news is slow enough, I'll get a follow-up story.
Thanks!

Sorry if I'm coming off as bragging, but here is the online article in which I am mentioned: http://www.wlwt.com/entertainment/19191159/detail.html

I was notified by phone and e-mail earlier today. Even cooler: I just finished a phone interview with a reporter from the Cincinnati Enquier, saying she would try to meet-up with me on Saturday and post some of my quotes in the Enquirer either Tomorrow or Sunday! I think Don may be liking me; she mentioned how Don told her that I had some cool Parks online and how I was a good kid to go to...... Edit: And now a call from Channel 5, saying they will mention my name on the 6:00 News, and possibly have me on camera tomorrow!

A Note To Successful First Rider Auction Bidders
Beast1979 replied to BoddaH1994's topic in Kings Island
Well, my bid has offically fallen below the yellow line, you can go and look at it at about seat 210. I'm placing another bid, this one for $230! -
Diamondback Construction Thread (Updated 3-19-09)
Beast1979 replied to BoddaH1994's topic in Kings Island
It looks to me like the queue part is mostly the area up to about the second lift support, the "A" looking one. That area looks like it has switchbacks and railings. Past that it looks to me like mantinence path, it's not as evenly paved and it doesn't have any fences. -
^And no Beast? Angrybeaver, your sickening me.

Happy Birthday, big guy! I never realized how famous and huge of a deal The Beast is! I knew it was the longest in the world and stuff, but it is amazing all that it has been through! From this season on, I should tally how many rides on The Beast I've accumulated. Maybe I could beat the 4,400 ride record! April 13 was media day. April 14 was the day it opened to the public.

Boy that Golden Ticket is gonna look real nice next year!

Realistically, how many Diamondback Opening Day rides do you expect?
Beast1979 replied to tigellinus's topic in Kings Island
Woot! Another person who likes the Crypt! I enjoy the ride, despite the lack of theming, because the line is usually short and the ride is real fun, and you get sweet shots of Diamondback from the exit! -
I constantly dream about Kings Island and rides there in all the time, and every single time I wake up, realize I'm in bed, and almost cry. Last night I had a dream about Cedar Point, but that is because for my birthday Trooper Mom said I get one Cedar Point trip this year! He sometimes talks like him, and is very wise like him, but does not try in any way to hide himself. He doesn't need to, he blends so well!
