You know, one of these days someone is going to decide it's just too much trouble down at Coney and move the whole thing to...oh wait...

I really enjoy your videos. It's been so long it's I've been to the park, it kind of makes me feel like I'm there!

Really? I know that any SoB solution is expensive, but pivotal to the park's future? That's a sobering thought. Didn't realize so much was riding (coasting?) on it.

Wow, I kind of forget sometimes what a MASSIVE structure Son of Beast is. It really is a shame that it doesn't operate. I remember waiting in line for it in 2000 and thinking "do I really want to get on this thing?".

It is hard to imagine seeing people riding this thing a week from today when you glance at the WS webcam.

It's a shame that that element is missing in so many (especially newer) other rides. Adventure Express, Flight of Fear, anyone? Really, once you're actually in line for Racer, it's layout is not readily visible, either.

What about their Dinosaurs Alive! exhibit?...oh, wait...

Some souvenirs available at KI gift shops at one time:

^I got that, too. After several attempts, I just now got on!

Been having a lot of trouble getting on the site on both of my computers...a little bit ago, the site was running in a VERY low-tech mode on my laptop. Now, it's having trouble loading. Sometimes I just get an error message.

All of you Kings Island "locals" make me sick!

I would like to see Kings Island periodically offer a collector map (one you could frame) in the gift shops.

Awesome, can't wait to see DA. Also, it was really great seeing IS!!! Looks ready to go!

Hopefully nothing was "misinterpreted" from the video. Nothing but respect for KIC and its members...but poking a little fun at some of the discussions!

The part about not sitting on a wheel and leaning forward almost made me spit my coffee all over my monitor...

Not to sound more like a dope than I usually do, but where would I find this? Your help is appreciated, believe me! I think there's a pic of the rotor in a thread I started awhile back: http://www.KICentral.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=20506&st=0&p=355157&fromsearch=1entry355157

That may be one of my favorite KI pics I've ever seen!

That's my pic! That was from August of '92, my first trip to the park since I was 2 in '75...evidently, I must have liked it! I've always regretted not having gone back to the safari on that trip, but at the time, I really didn't know much of the layout at all of the park. We ate up there in the IR on that trip, too...

Our local (Ross County, Ohio) county fair has one every year. It's the first week of August, if you're interested!

I remember seeing FC in operation, and thinking "there's no way I'm getting on that!" (and no, at the time, I was not aware of the very sad events tied to FC).

Thanks for sharing...I was actually just wondering a few minutes ago which park(s) were open already!

Wow, they are really working to get this thing done...work is going on at 8:30 AM on Sunday morning...
