Channel 12 just pulled in

I'm in the parking lot on my cell. Nothing yet

Remember when it was a big deal that you could have a double sided floppy? lol

Hey just wanted to let you guys know that I am trying to get my hands on some construction photos of the Eiffel Tower.(yes Terpy, the one at KI. lol) My grandfather worked for the company (Evers Welding) that helped build it. I am trying to contact Ray Evers about obtaining any of the construction photos.

Straight from the man's mouth: Diamondback Blog

Lets see some video of this first run!

Yes today would be a great day for a test run!

This week would be good for testing. Supposed to be in the 50's this week.

Track work done on The Beast for this year? Listen to 29:00 to 29:13. I'm wondering maybe some braking removed? It would be nice.

I do believe it's Smurfberry.

That was all those shows! Sally Jessie, Montel, Maury, Ricki, Jerry, and that other blond lady? .... Oh yeah Jenny Jones.

Ok this has to be one of the 1st years for pics. This is from 1985 I believe. The picture is of my Grandma(RIP Grandma, She left this world in Oct.) and I.

So sue me! I was estimating. I was trying to make the point that there was a time when KI didn't get a new ride every year.

I remember when you got a new ride every 5 years or so. I would just be happy with overall improvements to the park, or some small flats than a new big ride.

I remember the days when you never were confused where the entrance was, because the line always past the lake. lol!

Cool I can still get the tour of Diamondback even though I didn't make it. I did buy 4 tickets.

Bring back the Rib pit, and i would like them to bring old Coney back, bring back the landscaped trees that ran down the middle. You call it Coney Mall, well make it look like Coney Mall. I agree on the food, some better quality and a sit down place to eat. i remember when I was younger the whole family would meet at the LaRosas' on INT St. and eat by the fountains. We need more places in the park to bring the family together. Bring in more rides that mom and dad, or grandma and grandpa can ride with the kids, like a themed boat ride like the old Enchanted Voyage or Smurf ride.

Der Spinning keggers, and the witches cauldron. I used to love the spin those as fast as I could. I also miss the themed water ride like Enchanted Voyage or the Smurf ride. They really need to bring something like that back.

I would say between 1979 and 1983, just going by style.

^^ Yeah because your forecast is completely different than what they are saying on TV! lol..... Of course when have the weather guys on TV been right.

Good, let it close. Tear that hole down and expand Coney!

This is why I usually don't ride new rides for a year or two.

Thanks for the info. I will pack a lunch, not a fan of Subway's cold cuts, I usually eat their hot subs. All good! We are allowed to pack something right?
