I think with Funpix people might seek out photo ops. https://www.visitkingsisland.com/what-s-new/funpix

They do make wireless POS interfaces. Heck, I run credit cards for my side business on my iPhone. So I'm sure they are ready. I would put money on it (pun intended) that those portable spin the wheel games; will take both the card and cold hard cash. They know that those games are split decision choices depending on how long lines are.

Or better yet, just incorporate the preloaded card system to your KI season pass. To go even further, use your KI app with your pass linked on it. Then you will just have to pull out your smartphone and scan a barcode to enter the park, eat, play games, and make a purchase. Streamline and save $$$$$

I do believe they always have a shortage of workers anyway. So maybe redirect some of those would be workers to somewhere they are needed.....food service.

Looks like the whole parking lot is getting a make over. Trucks everywhere. Cleaning up and getting ready for paving. Looks like new signs will be going up for each parking row too.

Anyone know if Banshee's trains have been put back on?Yes. Banshee has been testing for a couple of weeks.

They already do! Oh and if you didn't catch the line in the article....."Not to mention, there is now this very nice open green space located across from Reds Hall of Fame Grill...we wonder what could go there?" https://www.visitkingsisland.com/article/media-center/A-peek-inside-the-2016-season-at-Kings-Island/?mobile=0 I doubt that this family center will be going there as the same article with that quote also states that the family center will be located "along International Street. Located adjacent to The Great Pumpkin Coaster". So this means that it will defintley not be located across from RHoFG. It defintely sounds like ti will just be taking place fo teh current family center building. I was just posting the picture for those who haven't seen the new family center.

Ah yeah your right. Doh lol

Just thought it was funny that a link that is supposed to go to KI, instead redirects to the webcam of the one wood coaster in Cedar Fair getting completely retracked. Sent from a signal coming out of the Vega system.

This is hilarious. Try going to pixelcaster.com/live/kingsisland Sent from a signal coming out of the Vega system.

Yep...Thunder Road. Lol Sent from a signal coming out of the Vega system.

Hmm....CF may not like that. KK taking any attendance away from one of their parks due to an RMC. They might have to do something about that. Like build something to compete. What park is close enough to build something, has the land, and their last new coaster was in 2014? Oh wait....... we know how that story ended previously

I'm thinking it's a "dirt"'version, look somewhere else. I think something is in the works for 2017, and we are seeing preparations for it. Clue: watch the other webcam.

A-M-E-N to that! Sent from a signal coming out of the Vega system.

So trying to figure out again why would they move the entrance to WWC if the soccer and basketball games are now over in front of The Beast, and why build a new Funnel Cake stand when you already had a large building for it?? Here is my crazy idea. I'm thinking for 2017 possibly a dark ride, or another woodie maybe an RMC, or GCI, maybe a GG?? This plot of land would be great for another woodie. You have the low points on DB that it can cross over. A lot of prime land. Plus it would draw more people to that corner of the park. Think about it. Most people just walk on by when going from DB to The Beast, or vise versa. Just my crazy idea. Lol Sent from a signal coming out of the Vega system.

Racer needs more than just paint. Lol. Sent from a signal coming out of the Vega system.

I was always taught to do your job, and do it well. Even if you didn't like that job. Some day it could get you somewhere better, and you will look back and appreciate your accomplishments. A majority of kids today are lazy, and expect everything to be handed to them, or given the best job right away. OK, I'll get of my soapbox. ***But there are some exceptional kids that strive to be the best and work hard; because they have great parents instilling that in them. Right LoraX?

Sounds like someone is regrading?? Sent from a signal coming out of the Vega system.

Let's just say I was older than you are now when the thing opened. You will understand in the coming years. That glossy indestructible feeling will slowly fade away over time. Lol Sent from a signal coming out of the Vega system.

You are the only person I've heard that doesn't like the new restraints. I think they are quite comfortable. Sent from a signal coming out of the Vega system.

I loved it when it was new. But after a couple of years it was becoming unbearable. The second helix literally beat the poo poo out of you. I think early 2008 was the last time I rode it. After getting off and having a bloody nose, I thought "that's it, I'm done with this ride"

Season long Haunt ride: [emoji736] Banshee? Sent from a signal coming out of the Vega system.

It was 1986.

Actually that would get me pretty excited! Lol Sent from a signal coming out of the Vega system.
