AZ Kinda Guy

I see you recognize my train of thought WooferBear. If it starts at the train then where does it stop?

That's been there since opening day last year chief.

I'm well aware of that. However, that reason just sounds like an exscuse to me. It's been open on opening day in years past.

Instead of telling you every little detail of my day I'm going to give you a list of good and bad from what I experienced. Good - Avatar. Lots of genuine fun packed into this ride. Sarah and I loved it and this was by far the highlight of the day. The best addition since Delirium! - Nick looks very nice. - It's about time DZ got it's long overdue paint job. - Nice shot glass selection. BTW, did anyone notice "the glitch" on the IJ shot glass set? I guess they never fixed "the glitch". - Jim in ecology was super friendly! Bad - In general, the place looked trashy. It looked as if nobody has been there since November and people were reporting to work for the first time today. - Employees looked as if it was the middle of August. - The parked looked like it wasn't ready to open. Several merch shops closed and several eateries closed. - Where did all the trees go in Nick u? It's a baby Action Zone. - Where did the ONE tree go in Action Zone? - Only having one extra to help train new associates? WTF is up with that? - The train was closed for what reason? Don't give me that maintenance crap. I smell a way to cost cut. Sure I probably wouldn't have rode it but the reason I mention this is if it starts at the train, then where does it stop? All in all, I've seen better opening days at PKI. The park is trying to save money and boy you can tell. However, closing rides and taking rides down to minimum employees is NOT the way to do it.

Ecology isn't going to be nearly as good this year due to the change in its upper management.

Many of the coasters have been cycled numerous times already chief.

Nah I like the slime tower. It's old school.

This is true. However, I'm sure they expected IJ to give a slight increase or at least help them stay flat. If not, they wouldn't have built it.

Disgruntled and rude? I merely gave my opinion on the ride and apparently I'm not the only one who thinks that way. The bottom line here is the ride didn't do what they thought it would do. Which is raise attendance. So if you ask me, the ride failed.

PKI did not have an increase in attendance compared to 04. So therefore, the people who came through the ticket stalls felt the same way about IJST.

Because I felt like it... Just a side note here..I'm not complaining about the park has a whole. I love the park. I'm just not a fan of IJST and apparently I'm not the only one who thinks that.

What in the hell were they thinking? "Lets build a short, medicore ride with awesome themeing but only to have the themeing go to hell over the summer." Seriously, the ride itself is ok and they let themeing fall apart. Sure I'm *****ing but I'm just giving my two cents. Besides it's hard not to ***** when you see rides like Hydra, Hades, and Sheikra, just to name a few, being built...Like someone famous once said; "I wish that pki would ditch this whole family thing and build something that gives me a boner." PS...The crew kicked ass though!

Are you serious?...At least it won't beat the **** out of you.

And you guys took my Idiot of the Week thread down....

Tamin da storm? You have got to be kidding me.

You guys should get out more

Not only did you buy one but you didn't get your money back either?

Clearly this guy has no idea what he's talking about

You must have bought some then

I'm surprised nobody sees the importance in this.

I don't call Son of Beast the Son of Overrated for nothing.

It pretty much stormed all day with slight breaks here and there...It didn't storm during the safari trip though. Which happened to be the best part of the day.

Or maybe people are just tired of this kids table crap?

Here are some more pics from my summer trip. You'll notice lots of Sheikra pics simply because the ride kicks ass. There are no Kumba pics because I never got to ride it. Same goes for Montu....Let me know what you think of the pics! BGT Pics

Nah they're not hurting for people.
