Golden Ticket Awards 2024
As much as it hurts to say I can't disagree with it's drop. We do have a great kids area, but you also have to convince people why it's the best kids area. That's why there are marketing and comms departments. I realize some is controlled by Charlotte, but still.

Does anyone else miss Firehawk?
Rode Superman 3 times today at SF Great America. It made me miss FH less. I never was a big fan and I have to totally disagree with @silver2005, the B&M restraints are way better than Vekomas'.

Kings Island 2024 Food Reviews and Discussion
I thought that was weird too. I was talking to Mike and some of the other gold tags after I had the chefs plate. I will share what I told them. "It was the best chefs plate I had ever had." Perfect portion size. The meat was tender, juicy, and well seasoned. The potato cakes were very flavorful. The carrots were well cooked.

Top Thrill 2 and Fastlane
I don't think parks understand the influence enthusiasts have on park sales. Yes, there are negative comments sometimes. Some enthusiasts take not seeing the park at its peak potential personally and get extreme with their expectations. That much is very clear. How many times have you seen me on the KIC social channels promoting sweet spot sales, apparel sales, and pass sales? Same with the FB pass holders, and other channels. Parks have no problem displaying Amusement Today's awards. Who do they think votes in those polls? They may not like a few enthusiasts' attitudes or comments, but bottom line they need to play ball if they want to win awards and increase additional park sales. Considering they keep cutting budgets and such, you'd think that they'd be taking any lifeline they can get for free.

Does it count as a new disappointment if most of the structure is the same ride?

Kings Island Halloween Haunt 2024 Discussion
That is not a bad idea. It could gradually get to red at the top to match the beaming eyes.

This is the fastest I have seen it load in a while. Whatever Matthew did seemed to really help. Not sure what is going on for you?

Heritage Bank Center Cincinnati is going cashless
I don't want to touch dirty money that has been who knows where. Tap and go is the only way in my opinion.

Wow, you and I were in the park the same day and never saw each other. Glad you had a great day.

Back home now and seems to be much better. @disco2000did yours improve any more?

Kings Island next coaster survey 2024
I'm all fairness. Zamperla took on a very big problem child. I don't think the TT2 project should be held against them. Yeah, it has been a real drag, but that Intamin aura, energy, bad juju, etc. might still plague it.

So Matthew did something on the back end. Since I'm at Cedar point, others will have to chime in on how the site is behaving now. It seems slightly faster for me, but I'm sure my connection is not the best.
