  1. Hey, if I were the ride, I would have booed! (I got Terpedoed... aww!)
  2. I noticed that Action Theater's spiel is working. I noticed that SoB's queue spiel has been (finally) turned off... I think.
  3. Well, most of the times I've ridden, when asked "how was your ride?" most of the riders booed.
  4. As of yesterday, Action Theater has a spiel with Mr. Krabbs doing the usual safety announcments. Is that new?
  5. Having proper trains would increase the speed of the ride, which would most likely mean the addition of a trim. Hunting uses energy, which takes away from the speed of the ride.
  6. My dad after riding Dodgems: "Those were the slowest bumper cars I've ever seen!" I love it when non-enthusiasts realize things like that...
  7. SoB is a beautiful structure, I'll give it that. I really hope that, if SoB isn't removed, that it will be majorly overhauled. Making the track the regular width could possibly help with the problems with the cars hunting. Having new trains could also possibly help. I do like the G-trains (love the lapbar, compared to PTC single bars), though.
  8. I saw a group walking down SoB/FD's exit ramp expecting to get into the queue for SoB. I guess if there's a "Sorry, this ride is closed" sign, just try the other path... hmm.
  9. Halfpipe at Elitch Gardens has one of the worse capacities I've ever seen. On a non-crowded day, I waited over an hour. It's like Firehawk, except worse.
  10. I think it is possible to touch the top of the bridge on BLSC in the "splashdown", if your hands are all the way up and your lapbar is loose.
  11. For me, Drop Zone/Tower is the only ride that still really scares me.
  12. I don't see CF going with another first-of-its-kind (or second) again EVER. TTD anyone?
  13. The Crypt's program that it started the year with. Now, it would probably be Drop Zone (I refuse to call it the other name...). It's really the only ride that I'm still scared of.
  14. Dear Kings Island, Some people don't enjoy Haunt, you know.
  15. I've never had someone refuse to give me water, but I've had a few people who were rude about it. One told me "Are you actually going to buy anything?", and one told me that I was getting the "gold pass special" (huh?). Although, only two rude employees out of the countless times that I've gotten water is still pretty good.
  16. **CAUTION!! THE FOLLOWING IS MY OPINION! IT IS NOT TO BE TAKEN AS FACT!** While I can see why some people would like to see SoB reopened, I just can't see it being feasible for the park. This latest incident (a). shows CF that the ride will continue to have issues, even with work they've done on it post-2006, and ( b ). brings more attention to the problems that the ride has had, which increases the chances of a class-action suit if something goes wrong again. I understand that many people enjoy SoB, but it's impossible to ignore the problems that it's had and will continue to have. (oh, and by the way- my avatar is referring to SoB a bit of a flop. Yes, I know that some people take offense to that. You can stop PMing me about it. Thanks! )
