Thanks for sharing with us! Enjoyed the PTR!

Sounds like whatever situation that you are afraid of is nothing to worry about. You will make it just fine!

So the LA Times does have a point, but they have gotten something new to the park over the last few years. I do hope they work on updating the old Paramount website templates in this off season. Not going to hold my breathe.

When was the last time they got a "New" Ride?

Nope, Nope, Nope, Nope, Serveral times a season. Most of the top items I can do in Indy. If I am going to drive for 2 hrs one way, I make sure I do things I can't do in Indy. Ridding DB comes to mind.

LOL, So true! Thanks for the TR Angie!

True. But has he mentioned any of the others? I would imagine Racer will be running, since it's also a wood coaster. Add Flight of Fear to that list as well, since it's indoors. Vortex? Firehawk? Stunt Coaster? Invertigo? Diamondback?!?! I'll be interested to see if any of these are operating. Also keep in mind that they started initial test runs on DB after being built in about this type of weather, if not cooler. So I don't see why it would not be running. Just my thoughts, I could be wrong though!

Keep in mind that Terpy has stated many times that he has ridden Beast while it was snowing.

My argument to keep ridding DB is the line speed. I can ride DB 3 time (or so) or ride Invertigo, FH, FOF, and AE (Ok, just kidding on AE) one time.

I spoke to Gary a few weeks ago when I was there. I asked him how he had been keeping track of his ride count. He said that he documents every ride in his PDA.

I think it would be cool (HA!) to ride The Beast in the snow! Was there accumulated snow on the ground Terpy or was it just flurries?

At lunch today the Subway lady noticed I had on my Cedar Fair jacket. She asked if they owned KI. I said yes. She asked how much tickets were for the park. I was not totally sure since I had a season pass, but told her to try Meijer for discount tickets. I was there earlier in the week and heard a ticket/DB commercial while shopping. She said that she had called Kroger and they were out of tickets. While I was there eating she called and they still had tickets! Just by wearing my CF jacket, I helped a lady save some money for a KI trip.

I do not see VF going anywhere. I would like to see a flat go in where the former Paramount Story is at, or right now Cemetery Drive.

Sounds like you had a great time! Thanks for sharing!

I enjoyed hanging with you guys on Sat night. I probably would not have stayed through the storms without you guys. Ryan stayed for 2 rides on DB when it reopened. The park was almost empty at that point, so it was worth waiting the storm out. It was steady rain so Ryan and I got pin faced pretty bad. Since I am from Indy and had a total of 4 hours driving there and back, I stayed until it closed and got the last ride of the night. Thanks to Captain Nemo who rode with me on my last few rides. I was able to get 11 rides in on DB between 12 and 1. Thanks KI for another great evening hanging with my KIC friends, Angie, Tom, Ryan, and Gabe (Captain Nemo.)

Last I heard most people found murders and dead people scary. Making real life scenes just adds to the suspense IMO. I voted NO for removal. I do not believe it was the intent of KI to be disrespectful to the ones who were in the display.

I miss having the middle row on the "tanks." I always sit in the middle row on Racer and Beast if I do not sit in 1-1.

Enjoyed your PTR Guys! Glad you had fun in all that rain and got back safe!

That was good here is one with Outkast with Hey Ya. CB and Hey Ya!

When I renewed the 3 passes for my family I was told to keep or 09 pass for it would be good for 2010 now! Why give out new cards when the old ones are fine, saves money on printing new ones. I also processed ours in Nick-U for the line outside the park was long and we waited a whole 3 minutes to get renewed at Nick - U! KI got my money faster that way for I was going to wait till the next visit. (Giving me another excuse to go.)

I am pretty sure that was not the only typo I saw on there!

What I was confused at the last time I was there, Oldiesmann and I found a bunch of flip flops after the final break run as you are making your turn into the station right behind International Showplace. How do you make it all the way through the ride and lose your flip flop as you coming into the station at 4 mph?

My 4 year old has these shows on DVD and loves them, so he knows these characters very well.

I hope the difference in licensing rights from Nick-U to Peanuts is big enough to retheme that area of the park nicely!

I used to have a similar dream a lot in the off season. They had renovated the ride but made it very bad, the ride was terrible and I was disappointed. There were a few times in the dreams that I complained to management on what they did!
