Maybe just have it themed to skating (skateboarding), and at opening have a big skate demo with some big pros. It would definitely be something different, and would be something that a lot of kids are really into.

I think it would be a great addition, especially if themed with X-Games or Tony Hawk or something like that.

I went 17 years between my first and second visits to KI ('75-'92). So, if I could I would love to be able to go back and ride Lion Country Safari and Enchanted Voyage. As far as rides I can actually remember, I would have to go with King Cobra, Antique Cars, Phantom Theatre, and Days of Thunder in the F/X Theater.

AWESOME pics. I was just showing them to my mom. We rode that in '75...but I've never seen pics of the actual station and monorail itself...we have pics of the animals, and the woods. Wow, just when you think you've seen everything!

As crappy as I think the food is (for the most part) at KI, I've never heard one person complain either at the park, or the numerous people I talk to that visit the park. I really don't believe its that much of a deal breaker. I think its an issue that IS noticed more by the enthusiasts than the GP. There's also never a shortage of people to line up and shell out the money for it when I'm at the park.

Thats funny, just yesterday I remembered something about the site being mentioned on here sometime over the summer. Great job!

Good pics. Was the 16th an education day? If it was, I had a chance to be there that day (I'm a teacher). I love the shot from the parking lot. I really don't know of any more of an exciting view than that one.

That does look like fun. It would definitely be something unique!

I kind of fell back in love with the older water rides at KI this summer. I think it would be neat to get a newer version of a water ride in the park. I would think it would be a lot cheaper than a roller coaster (maybe not). It would steal a little thunder, maybe, away from the Columbus Zoo's new park opening...

I'm undecided. I've had a pass the last two years, and it has been a FANTASTIC value. But, sometimes I've felt like I've almost "made" myself go because I have the pass. Before I had a pass, I just went if a group of friends was going or something. Either way, I need to decide before my trip to HH.

Except for picking up your jacket, are you able to do the whole process online?

I think it would be AWESOME.

I rode IJ last year during FearFest...

I used to be afraid of DZ and Delirium. I finally rode them both. I'm still scared of them, and haven't got back on since.

^Wow, somebody must really miss Phantom Theatre.

I voted for off-season, just because its such a loooooong winter, and it would be cool to go to the park for an event, just to check it out. For me, KI is getting to be like the NFL or the NBA-the off-season is a season in itself!

You gotta love any company that when you click on "products" its lists various coasters and rides they build.

I like LaRosa's pizza. However, I enjoy BGSS. Its like going back to vintage KI.

Wow, they are really stepping it up this year! Another reason it would be neat to live closer to KI...

I was at the park on Labor Day '04. It was completely packed. Like a Saturday at peak season. BB was also open on that day. I didn't realize they started closing BB earlier. I know they promoted even being open a few more days last week or so.

I hope you don't represent the majority of Cedar Fair employees with your reaction to a season passholder that visits their website.

KIFan73: You jumped the gun on this one before you took the time to research your so called finding. I hate to tell you but the page speaks for itself. As Hauntguy said it states "all events are free with park admission unless otherwise noted" which means you need to click on the link for HH which takes you to the main page of the HH website. If you click on ticket information, then you will see it says "Coming Soon" Like I said in another topic that is similar, Boddah1994 is great at getting out information to us on these forums, why should we doubt him now. Wait until the press release comes out, and then we will all know the truth. "so called finding"??? That sounds like I was trying to find some big hidden secret. I think that anyone that reads that page would think the same thing I did. And, its not "otherwise noted" anywhere that it is going to cost extra. Just because you click a few times and there's a "Ticket" page doesn't mean anything. People without passes WILL need a ticket to get in. I can't understand why so many people on here are dying to be charged extra for something thats been normally been included with admission. More expensive is no guarantee of better. Plus, if you're not that interested in the Haunt stuff, but mostly the rides, its still the same rides that are always there.

Well, when their website has a page that says that events are free with admission, and it shows HH underneath that heading, that tells me a decision has been made. Now, if they're going to possibly resort to playing games, changing their mind, and twisting their policies around after something's already been stated, thats another story.

I just read on PKI.com that all events are FREE with park admission (they include HH). Looks like its free again this year.
