  1. Why are people so in love with a gate coaster? I like that KI doesn’t play all it’s cards up front. You know what’s inside-you don’t need a coaster screaming over the front door to build excitement. If anything I feel it diminishes it. I like that international restaurant is getting a lot more use here of late-pretty much ensuring that if we do get a new entrance experience-they won’t be “opening it up” too much , and we will still get that wonderful compress and release view that Disney and KI mastered so well. 

    Who said anything about a gate coaster????

    @Oldschool75, would such a project require some documentation with the City of Mason or Warren County? I know just surveying probably does not require anything as of now.

    City of Mason and Warren County don't always have all documents online. Sometimes preliminary approval is given without paperwork officially submitted, and later filed when the project is commencing.

  3. Some more marking showing up on the edge of old Columbia road. Some are for excavation and gas line relocation. Judging by where previous markers were seen during Covid and removed I’m thinking we are seeing the beginning of an new and updated front gate area.

  4. Also a 28% increase in in-park per capita spending. Very good news. Hopefully the rest of the season is good for the chain as well.

    I would say most of that is Kings Island judging by all the 50th gear I’ve seen everyone wearing at the park. Heck, I’ve spent $200 on stuff this year so far. That’s more than I’ve spent in the last 15 years total.

  5. It's looked like this for a number of years.
    They typical store bike racks in this location for parking lot events. (Robbie Knievel, walking/running events, Haunt, etc)

    I guess the trees shrunk in height. Especially since you can see Congo Falls loading station now from the parking lot. 98dd111a474775de8353b3ce068b7d25.jpg

  6. That is new track steel there. They have been replacing sections of track. The ride went down again today when I was there at 4pm. We were next in line and they just shut it down.

    Honestly I get what they are trying to do here but it seems unfair to those of you that scheduled around trying to be the first to see the show on Saturday.

    I’m playing the world’s smallest violin for you.
