Hoeter

Leaving the park about 11pm tonight (got last train of the night on The Beast) going out the south exit, a car pulls in and is coming straight toward me as I was leaving. Fortunately I was able to get over to prevent an accident. Are two DO NOT ENTER signs on poles (and a sandwich board saying the same) and a NO RIGHT TURN sign next to the traffic signal enough?

I saw this on Facebook and this thread immediately came to mind.

If I'm not mistaken, Jet Express is who was running the tours during Coastermania! in 2014. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong.

Each of my 3 rides so far this season on Vortex has been in 7-1. Much more intense back there and the first drop is amazing. Still catches me by surprise every time.

I'm looking at the webcam currently and it looks like the front LED lighting by the dive loop is turned on for some reason. I'm seeing flashing red, blue, and green lights. That's what it looks like to me.

This was from a family member years ago. We were watching a TV show or something about Kings Island and they start talking about Don. It showed a picture of him, with hair, back about 30 years ago. Then it cut to a picture of Don as he is today with no hair. Said family member exclaimed "I know how he became bald! It's from riding that Racer thousands and thousands of times!"

I've gotten cups of ice water, gratis, several times this season already. Once on Sunday at Rivertown Larosas and one last Saturday at RHOFG. Another poster on here said they asked for a cup of water and the particular stand wanted to charge $4.13, tax included for it. They're still getting the hang of things but as far as I know it's the same as in seasons past.

Extra nickels means extra FUN!

I rode Shockwave in 2014. Being that I never rode King Cobra while it was at Kings Island, I definitely wanted to experience it. I had heard before my visit that SkyRider at CW was being removed at the end of the season, and didn't think the future looked well for Shockwave. I had to ride it then because I knew I wasn't able to get back to that park for awhile. And I didn't sense your sarcasm earlier. Much easier to tell face to face than behind a computer screen.

Thanks McSalsa, didn't know you could sort the list. Also notice I said mainly instead of all in my original post. It's all good! I have a better chance of winning the lottery without purchasing a ticket than Kings Island getting a TOGO stand-up like they had previously. For you newer people, TOGO has been defunct since 2001 or 2002. EDIT: I stand corrected. I see where I put that all of them were in Asia. My apologies.

I'd bring a pocket full of ear protectors and sell them in line. Make a profit. You can still see them on the TV, you just can't hear the awful music. Rather listen to nails on a chalkboard.

Per RCDB, the only operating TOGO stand-up coasters still operating are in Asia (mainly TOGO's home country of Japan). http://rcdb.com/r.htm?ot=2&co=6849 I wouldn't count on it.

I'm gonna pull a Terpy. I learn the darnest things here.

I'm from Bethel. The Asian Longhorned Beetle infestation that's taking place out here requires thousands and thousands of trees to be cut down across Tate Township and in the Village of Bethel. Not picked about like the ones at the park. It is unlawful to transport firewood to neighboring Townships and Villages Devastating. Property values unfortunately can and have taken a hit. Back on topic...

There will be an at-grade crossing, similar to the path between the Picnic Grove and Soak City. See also Cedar Point between the Gemini midway and the area where Cedar Creek Mine Ride sits.

One of the lights in the ceiling going up the stairs into the UFO has a short in it. How do I know this? My hand accidentally bumped the ceiling and the light kicked on.

I have the theme to Top Gun on my phone. It popped up out of the blue the other day when listening to music. Kings Island immediately came to mind.

Should have seen IS Skyline at closing. Line was almost to the door.

No I totally understand! Nothing good ever comes from trespassing in an amusement park. Is there a way to change your username? Mines just my initials and birthday but I'd like to change it to something more creative if I think of one.Sent from my SM-G935P using Tapatalk Message one of the admins (BoddaH1994, Dane, Gordon Bombay, CoastersRZ, and Avatar- it's been awhile since I've seen him on) and they can help you. http://www.KICentral.com/forums/index.php?app=forums&module=extras&section=stats&do=leaders Click the envelope on the far right next on said persons name to send a PM (Private Message)

Thank you for sharing, and welcome to KIC!

You're welcome bm0324. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. Sorry if I sounded harsh on my post earlier. Trespassing is a behavior that the park and this site does not condone. I just don't want to see another repeat of 2013, that's all. We have several new posters and I thought it was a good time to bring it up again.

Refer to this link that was on the post Goble made when he started the thread. http://www.KICentral.com/forums/index.php/topic/27822-a-warning-to-the-kic-universe/ I'm not saying that you would do it either, but there was an incident a couple of years back when we were doing the same thing for Banshee. Don was furious, and I don't blame him. DO NOT under any circumstance trespass or enter a backstage area of the park without permission AND an escort from a Kings Island employee. Said incident caused tension between this site and Kings Island. It will result in criminal charges and even banishment from the park. Just wanted to point this out since those who were around at that time remember all that took place. Carry on...

Opening an umbrella indoors causes bad luck. I've opened many umbrellas within 4 walls and a ceiling and nothing has ever happened. Silly old wives' tales...

Went to the park tonight for a couple of hours. Arrived about 6. Got rides in on Beast (last car, middle row), Diamondback (Row 8), Vortex (7-1), and Red Racer (front row) Also got Larosa's. Not a bad 2 hours.
