I saw a Zack Morris phone in the nets one time. True story.

The launch looks amazing and the ground hugging nature of the ride is supposed to give you a greater sense of speed. I know we're all spoiled by 4 minute ride times but we just got a traditional hyper coaster. I would like to see something unique. If it's going to be an Intamin something like Maverick or one of these winged riders.

My wife never visited parks as a kid and she is terrified of large coasters and rides. Wish I could convince her otherwise.

That's what I've been saying.

They can put a huge Early Cuyler on Avatar and rename it "The Party Liquor Regurgitator"

Saturday is a good day in July because of the midnight closing.

I got tickets for $28.99 at my local Kroger and parking is $10. If you're going to leave for lunch get to the park well before opening so you can get a parking space that is close. I think you can pony up even more cash for closer spaces but $10 is normal parking.

I wish I lived within an hour of King's Island. It takes me 2 1/2 hours to get there driving through the middle of nowhere.

Those are the best days.

Didn't it rain all day?

What a bummer. Those $5 shirts I bought on the street outside of GABP and Paul Brown stadium held together very well. Hard to believe that knockoff Reds and Bengals gear is more durable than King's Island gear.

1980. Nothing I guess. Beast was in 1979 and The Bat came in 1981.

What about an inverted LIM coaster like Volcano?

I have visited BG in Williamsburg so many times and the difference between Apollo's Chariot and Griffon is monumental IMO. Yes Diamondback puts AC to shame but that first drop on Griffon is something uniquely special. For some people it is sheer terror when they halt the train before the drop.

I can remember back when Diamondback was umored to be a dive machine. I'm glad we got a hyper out of it. I can't get enough of it! Diamondback is a great hyper coaster and it really completed King's Island but I would have been really happy with a B&M dive machine too. Griffon and SheiKra are freakin' sweet.

Tilt-a-Whirl!

KI also had another Intamin ride. Scariest ride ever.

Dive machine. There are only 2 in the United States. We need more.

We need another B&M. One like this one.

The single rider line on Diamondback doesn't move all that fast sometimes. I got passed up by people waiting in the normal line on my visit this summer.

I like how the news report says "possible new ride" and there is footage of heavy construction and track pieces in the parking lot.

Don't forget to ride Delirium.

Well if this is true that means we should be getting a B&M inverted and a B&M dive machine next.

Griffon is amazing. My favorite coaster at the moment.
