  1. ^You know, I think that's my favorite area of Kings Island…just before you walk in. Aahh! Now I want it to be April already!
  2. I think the park could develop out into areas not previously thought of before. In 1972, who would have thought a major use of the train would be give people rides to a water park? Or, when they built the International Restaurant, would they ever have imagined that it would later be used for an event by a group of people that typed messages about Kings Island on a (probably not-yet-invented) personal computer?
  3. If that doesn't confirm that a new coaster will be built there, I don't know what would.
  4. Well, they could have put some animatronic dinosaurs along the path to make it interesting (awhile back)!
  5. They were floating? I bet that was eerie.
  6. All the rides at Kings Island will be going into hibernation in just a few short hours (didn't the park just open for the season yesterday?). At the same time-much like getting strapped into Flight of Fear-we will soon be launching into six months of speculations, conspiracy theories, rumors, bickering, supposed "in-the-know" information from "some important park official", as well as things mentioned by the Dippin' Dots guy. Although we all hate to see Kings Island close for the season, we can all be kept warm and merry by reading nearly-daily updates ranging from potholes being filled on Kings Island drive to sightings of semis carrying ride parts anywhere within a 300 mile radius of Mason, Ohio. While we say farewell to Kings Island's 40th anniversary season, who's ready to discuss 2013 and beyond??
  7. ^When someone posts something almost exactly the same as I think, I always like to mention it! Although I lack a great deal of knowledge about the amusement industry, it didn't make much sense to me, either.
  8. If Kings Island had maintained their original premise of being a true resort area, an entry way that you'd drive under once you reached Kings Island Drive would have been neat.
  9. I've read a lot about it on the Internet, including this site. So, I probably don't know much about it at all.
  10. I'm jealous of the people that go often enough to actually accumulate a worthwhile amount of points.
  11. Bumping to show how much has changed in 5 years!
  12. It's nice to hear that The Zephyr is included in someone else's list of "favorite rides"!
  13. Wonder why Taft wanted him to "return to Coney Island to oversee its rebirth as an amusement park"?
  14. Thank you, interpreter! Hopefully I get a ride on Vortex before the season is over!
  15. You know, it would be a lot cheaper to dangle people upside down from a bungee cord and let other people beat on them with a wiffle ball bat… I'd like to see something just plain fun to ride...
  16. Hopefully they know what they're going to do if it stalls with people on it!
  17. At one time, TR:TR was my favorite ride at Kings Island. Nothing like I'd ever (or since) experienced!
  18. I'm glad you liked them! I'm already looking forward to 2013!
