Banshee (to me) isn't just another ride. It moved into my top 3 fav coasters at the park (Beast, Banshee, The Bat). I love reading these theories. Some of you have a great imagination and should pursue writing. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I never rode it as Tomb Raider but I did as the crypt (I think I did at least but I remember 3 rows and lots of effects and the sliding door so maybe it was as Tomb Raider?). My overall question is why was Kings Dominion able to keep the music/lights/monkeys but KI couldn't? That ride in particular makes me wonder what would have happened if KI and Paramount had a better continuation.... Also the park map showing camp grounds, golf course, and hotel..... So sad about how in a matter of about 15-20 years the park was stripped of the resortness of what it was suppose to be. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Of course we want more more more, but in a glass half full mode we are we very lucky as a park to have: a scrambler, Shake Rattle Roll, Monster, An Eagles type ride, the swing ride near FoF, a Merry Go Round, a jr Whip, a few car rides for the kids, and not mention the big flats of DT, WS, and Delirium. I mean what else do we need to fill a gap that's not really offered by what we have. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yet if they didn't follow the reasonable accommodations required the ADA.... Not a lawyer just work with a lot of special needs families and help point them in the right direction. Plus what sort of upsets me is the fact they made the special needs person clean bathrooms. Obviously they didn't want him interacting with people like a ticket taker or even a sweeper.....

Yeah but don't forget what KI has that not all regional parks can offer. Nice and easy interstate access to not just one but within a 60-90 minute drive you have access to 71, 75, 70, 74, 64, 65... Not to mention that within 2-4 hours of the park you can rack up about a dozen or more "major cities" in the KI area... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Fair enough. To me they look like an unfinished office building. Sort of cold... A wood coaster feels warm and nostalgic while a steel coaster feels cold and adrenaline pumping and space age. I think for me it's the extra steel around the track during some elements and the big boxy floating(or looks like it's floating) track that gives it the unfinished building feel. But honestly if it's a great fun ride who cares how it looks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

These conversions or what have you are not very attractive. It's like they took the worst parts of steel and wood and combined them at least it the looks department. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Man dude you got like a serious axe to grind about CFA. Honestly who cares. CFA is super busy. Probably busier than other restaurants and for a reason. Decent to good food (I like them better than others) done for not an expensive price. There are not many and that helps drive the line. Yes right at lunch or dinner time many places are busy. No one is disputing that fact. But CFA usually have larger lines. Long lines don't be popularity. But seriously most of your posts are purposely troll like and good job you got me to bite and comment on this. But honestly who cares. Relax and if you don't like CFA then good for you. Go eat something near you. Because man oh man. You seem like a super angry person. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

According to the Mayo Clinic MSG is generally safe.... http://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/nutrition-and-healthy-eating/expert-answers/monosodium-glutamate/faq-20058196 Big thing is most fast foods or colas or anything else generally is safe in small doses. But if you eat too much of it then it's bad news Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Wow msg.... Ugh something else to think about.... And hats a lot for an area in DC but it's all relative. From my house there is a CFA about 5 mins away. The next closest CFA is about 20 mins. On the way to that CFA I'll pass 4 McD 2 BKs 2 Skylines 2 Arby's and 2 Wendy's but only one Taco Bell... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

We can assume CFA is busy because of simple supply and demand. They offer a decent to good product (I like there food personally) depending on who you ask. The stores are separated by a few miles usually at least 25+ minutes. The price is not terrible and service is fast. As opposed to say McD or BK where they are more common in location.

Honestly, the repaving would be nice but newly painted lines and enforcements of the a holes who park in the no parking areas would be better. When they park in the cross lines it makes it harder to pull out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So you are saying there were animatronics on that ride ..... Haha thanks everyone for the tefresher Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Maybe it will be like at WDW. You go to the picture que with your on ride photo swipe your band or card and that picture is put on your card? At WDW it took maybe 5-10 seconds to add to our account. For $40 that's a darn good deal. My kid will be hitting milestones this year. It may be well worth it. He may get his first coaster in this year on Charlie Brown coaster. I'm more surprised it took this long to do something like this. Digital photos cost pennies to make and send to customers once the structure is in place. The price is so darn cheap I'll be surprised if they don't sell a bunch of these. Especially the day ones... I'd guess thousands will be sold in each park and would be surprised if a park like KI creeps near almost 100k of these being sold (on the idea that the park has about 600k visitors during the year) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

We had the same experience at KI as we did in restaurant the few times we did CFA in the park. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I would have sworn it was screen heavy... It's also been almost 5 years since I rode it. I remember the will smith screen and the alien on the other car screen... My apologies! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Man it will be difficult driving through sheets of plastic but if you go fast enough you should be fine Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Spider-Man was a unique and cool ride. Harry Potter added a new flair to the screens with real props built along The way. But I have not experienced the Transformers ride but is it going to be that different? I mean besides the content? Don't forget Men In Black is also a screen/shooting ride as well. I will say that the Snow White Mine Ride was just an "okay" coaster but the swinging cars and the little things like the gems or the depth of real characters added more to the ride. Heck Jungle Cruise is old and tired but the animatronic animals give it a sense of real. Something that just doesn't happen with screen based rides. I am not a huge Avatar movie fan but as the opening gets close, I'm very interested to see what will be done with the land. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Why are we surprised it takes that much time to open? It takes time to raze, rebuild, pave, build rides, trouble shoot, etc. If it takes almost 6 months to build just one ride...

Okay I'll bite... What's the difference between elephant ears and funnel cakes? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks Terp. I have WDW on my mind. I meant International Street in the shadow of the ET Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't they just build/remodel a new funnel cake/elephant ear location on Main Street? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Terp I see what you are saying but.... I have to disagree. I don't remember if you said you had or had not used it yet. So I apologize for forgetting. The system is not that hard to manipulate either in the park, on your device, or on a computer. It actually made planning our day at the park easier. We knew we had to be at "a" by this time so made sure we went to that side of the park got our ride in and then continued on. Plus there are / were a ton of employees helping people schedule or making suggestions of what to schedule and for when. I look at it like this. The old way we would meander around the park get one one or two big rides (because of the wait times) and possibly miss some other rides. Because of the tier system we had to ride the Peter Pan ride at Magic Kingdom (loved it) managed to ride almost everything in the park and still didn't feel like it was a "get to class" rush. Now I will say it works because it is so limited. I'm not sure it would be fun if I had to schedule my whole day with all of my rides on it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I was confused when I read it. Because the way it reads states you can skip the videos and go right to the meet and greet. That means not having to burn 2 right? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
