My only thing is that I hope Banshee's crew doesn't operate in power hour mode as much. I'd rather not feel rushed to do things once I get up to the station nor have the boarding crew literally breathing down my neck, especially when they're in 'power hour' mode. Also, turn down the volume for the loudspeaker in the station.

They can expand where they give out fair discounts all they want, but if they never advertise their existence, then they've wasted their time.

I like how the sign contradicts itself.

I can get by without a phone on a ride, but I would at least like to have essential items like my car keys and ID on me. At least my wallet doesn't set off the detector.

Have a correction to make. General Custer's doesn't sell blue ice cream. Its a blueberry flavor, there is no blue coloring. Its still pretty good though. However, its hard for me to choose Custer's as there is a Graeter's next door.

^I think you're over thinking this.

Post deleted. Apologies to MDMC01.

I have a question for MDMC01 or anyone who's worked as a sweep- do you guys help out on food stands' patios or do you leave it up to the respective food staff to cover them?

And the best part is that its only a 10 minute drive from me. EDIT: They have blue ice cream shakes?! I know where I'm stopping on my way home from school on Thursday.

There is a place on the west side of Cincinnati around where I live called General Custer's Golf and Gulp (3325 Westborne Drive, just off of Glenway Ave, very close to Oak Hills High School) that sells it. It's called Blueberry Delight. http://generalcusters.com/creamy-whip.html

If you do food, try to do the smaller, walk-up stands like Potato Works or the Coney Mall Skyline. They have smaller patios and are generally easier areas to work compared to Festhaus or the Reds HoF Grille. I-Street's LaRosa's patio is massive. I had to close what was then WINGS once and didn't get out until well after 2 am on a 10 pm close.

That picture is one of the most awesome amusement park pictures ever.

It depends on the coaster IMO. With smaller rides, you can get away with about anything. With rides that stick out in a park's skyline, well...I'd rather not see something that doesn't mesh. SFMM's X in its original pink and yellow comes to mind. The most eccentric paint job goes easily to this. Dragon @ Ocean Park in Hong Kong. Picture courtesy of RCDB.com. Link

Its better than what is used to be colored.

Scream! at SFMM got new colors in the off-season.

Check towards the top left of the picture.

You know things are bad when the announcement for Tempesto happens during an earnings call.

We now have test footage.

I'd love to see a water based landscaping similar to the area Knott's did when they added their wild mouse coaster.

I wonder what will be going in those spaces not filled in with concrete around the 2 Planet Snoopy rides.

Is there not one in the International Street Fudge and Candy Shop anymore? I didn't know there was one there. So either they're moving it or, even better, there will be 4 of them!

Am I reading the map right? A 3rd Freestyle Machine for Rivertown Potato Works?! I wonder where they'd put it...

The now former Tower Gardens area seems too large for a funnel cake stand's patio. Even the Rivertown and I-Street LaRosa's patios, Juke Box's patio, or Chicken Shack's aren't that large. I could see 1 or 2 flats...maybe. I just don't want them ruining the area around Grand Carousel, which, IMO, is on my list of favorite areas in the park. If they do flats, no large flats please. I'd be okay with some unique landscaping there as well.

Does that mean Ed Hart will fill in as dean Vernon Wormer?
