Cedar Point hotel properties to get multi-year investment
It's insane how much effort I have to put in to tell if it is a real picture or animation in some of those shots.

Tony tweeted this morning that it was just regular maintenance.

Kentucky Kingdom
Yeah, God forbid a park trying to stay afloat put in a game that makes a ton of profit. It's all about the enthusiasts, right?

Changes to 2015 dining plans (Update: not happening)
As a person who eats at weird times (first meal of the day was at 8:15pm) this would not work for me. I wouldn't have bought it anyways, as I probably won't make it to KI this year.

Inflatable Theater
Was it loud in there then?

New Site Layout?
Is it possible to move the ads somewhere else on the page? It looks weird dividing the topics.

No Pet Day Care in 2015?
That's a strong take ya have there, Gator.

Jeff Siebert
As long as I have been on here I have seen many posts talk about Jeff Siebert and how he was a creative genius when it came to marketing and PR. I wasn't really around here when he worked for Kings Island (1999-2005, according to his LinkedIn profile) so can anyone tell me what kind of things he did to be regarded as one of the best in the industry? I know he is now with Six Flags and was briefly with Schlitterbahn. Has he done anything recently that resembles the kind of stuff he did at Kings Island? I have three days off and I'm already bored; this is the result.

Week XIII: Your Music Genre
I forgot to say that about once every two weeks I will listen to nothing but John Mayer. My sister calls my car the "Mayer Mobile."

Week XIII: Your Music Genre
Classic rock, indie, alternative. I've been listening to a lot of Young the Giant.

Picture an amusement park themed to a ghetto. That is SFA.

BUSCH PARKS: BLACKSTONE, now what?
http://www.dailypress.com/business/tidewater/va-vg-jcc-busch-gardens-carl-lum-interview-20150116-story.html Poor Carl. Even what should be a fun off season article comes off as a sad story. I really like Carl, and even talked to him over the holidays when I ran into him in Tomorrowland. I could tell this season really took it out of him. What really blows my mind is they are not announcing the new coaster. At all. He says they will have an announcement in March. The park opens in March!

Fun Spot Orlando Announces Three New Attractions
When I'm paying close to 300 for my Universal pass, nine bucks is a steal.

Fun Spot Orlando Announces Three New Attractions
I'll have to check it out! 9 bucks isn't bad at all.

Fun Spot Orlando Announces Three New Attractions
How much is a ticket for White Lightning? I haven't went to that place because I thought they had admission tickets, but if it is pay per ride, I'd give the woodie a try.

Kings Island 2015 Discussion Thread
Is it a requirement to be involved with hockey before working PR jobs at KI?

I applied for a job at Kings Island!
Talk about safety. Theme park hiring managers love safety.

Universal TR (Coming Soon) - Questions Linger
Right, the elevator part of Gringotts' que is a ride by itself.

An Interesting Idea
KI has an abundance of nice napping spots.

Universal TR (Coming Soon) - Questions Linger
As said a few posts above yours, I waited 20 to 30 minutes in the regular line yesterday. To be honest, the time in the regular line goes by fast as there are multiple things to look at and do while you are in line.

Universal TR (Coming Soon) - Questions Linger
I have never read a HP book or watched more than twenty minutes of any of the movies. That being said, I spent two hours in Diagon Alley today. Just today. I rode Gringotts (20 minute wait) watched the dragon spit fire multiple times, watched people use their interactive wands, drank the warm version of Butterbeer, and just walked around. It is beautiful and fun. Same goes for the IoA side with Hogwarts. I love it.

Why does nobody like Dick Kinzel?
And now to humanize this topic a bit... I present to you a old photograph of Mr. Kinzel when he was celebrating his 2nd birthday. This picture was in a Christmas card to me from my great grandmother. She is first cousins with Dick and his siblings, and is actually really close with his sister.

You Know It's the Off Season When...
When Magic Kingdom closes at 8pm. So thankful.

Haunt show
I think it would be cool to experiment with an "Up and Coming Week" where KI brings in musicians that aren't big or mainstream yet. It would be cheaper than bringing in other artists and being a "hipster" and liking non mainstream music is really big right now.

Haunt show
I think they would be way out of KI's budget.
