What was wrong with the WWC coin machine?

Isn't that the Diamondback veichle?

I'm checking out Action Theater and SDatHC first.

I wasn't saying that they didn't remove anything, but they did install some landscaping. Some of it is in a bizzare spot (the two strips around the splashdown), but it's better than how the Firehawk area looks.

You, sir, owe me one bottle of monitor cleaner.

Yes, you can get into the ERT with a CF Platinum Pass. http://visitkingsisland.com/events/events.cfm?ec_id=33

I seem to recall them planting some trees in Diamondback's area... (but not in Firehawk's... so we're one for one.)

The thing is, there are alternatives to going with a cartoon character. Fairy tales are timeless, and they would likely not require a license, which even Snoopy does! Also, they could turn NU into a Junior Kings Island (Kids Island?) area, Reptar could be Flight Deck, Plankton could be Drop Zone, and they could add a small Eiffel Tower in one of the plaza-ish areas.

I can never see IR realistically becoming a restaurant again. Because of the view, it would be just too small, so they would need to raise prices to control the number of people who can eat there.

I have personally witnessed a child vomit in the pond. The fish had a feeding frenzy. I was horrified.

did any1 els see that 1 kid on teh deamondbackh who yalled "Cedar Fair SUX SELL TEH PARK BAK TO PARAMOUND!" going down teh lyft hall?

No, that person was by himself in the park at the time, so nobody saw him.

I miss Discovery Zone. I used to go there SO MUCH! I finally found a kids product with Snoopy on it! Unfortunately, it's a small bottle of hand sanitizer from Toys R Us, which also sells laptop toys shaped like Spongebob and Dora...

Like Jackson, there's no emoticon that expresses the look on my face right now. I don't understand the people who whine and moan about not being able to ride it. It was at the park for 9 years! If it was so important, you certainly had a chance to ride it.

And you are expecting that to be something other than a rebranded ESOI?

"I'm not going on Maverick, it's not safe!" I think that's what the peeps say in Rollercoaster Tycoon.

Oh dear! Seriously? It might just be my tastes, but those would be my bottom two. I loved Endless Summer and Flashback: Totally 80's.

Quoted from the locked SoB thread - just wondering if feelings have changed now that we know SoB will be SBNO for 2010. How much ya wanna bet the people who said that will go back and edit their posts now? (there were more than a few IIRC)

Where is that $30mil figure from? I wonder if they mean from 2000 onward or from 2006 onward. If it's just CF that's spent that amount on it... I need to go back and find that "shoving money down the drain" graphic.

If that's the qualification, you're going to have a very lonely club.

We don't know SDatHC's name yet.

Lawl... SoB has never operated "normally"... unless beating the crap out of riders is "normal" for a wooden coaster. And, by the way, maybe she reported it "late" because it simply didn't occur to her to report it? I can understand (for reasons that I will not go in to on here) why it would not immediately occur to her to report her injury to the park.

I know why. No final decision has been made. So they shouldn't put "Son of Beast will not operate for 2010" on the website? I'm glad I'm not at guest relations!

I thought we knew that the Knotts were voting no a while ago?
