  1. ^ Was that you who was chatting with the KIC group at the right side of the front gate, before running ahead to Diamondback?
  2. Although musical revues typically aren't my thing, I did enjoy Hollywood Nights. It was interesting to note which franchises were highlighted, briefly flashed on the screen, or omitted. The show's cold open with the 20th Century Fox fanfare is weirdly ironic.
  3. Glad you had a good time; it was nice talking with you again after so long. Her friend apparently had an issue with her season pass, so they didn't make it into the park right away. Since your stride is longer than mine, I really had to power walk to keep up. We're such a bad influence...
  4. Coca-Cola is offering MyCokeRewards members a promotion for a free ticket to a Cedar Fair park when entering 20 codes from Coca-Cola products. Note that new MyCokeRewards accounts aren't eligible. These promotions have typically sold out quickly, so those wanting to take advantage of it should do so soon.
  5. Recent revelations could certainly expand interest in the event's KI&MVRR tour.
  6. Race For Your Life Charlie Brown was operating, yes.
  7. Since it hasn't been mentioned here yet, according to the the KI&MVRR spiel, White Water Canyon will open on Memorial Day weekend along with Soak City. WWC's reservoir is currently empty, and there appears to be some work being done on the turntable. The new railroad crossing has yet to be constructed.
  8. Coney Skyline's line is blocking the midway.
  9. Andrew and I are in the station waiting for row 4.
  10. Four people at the front gate currently, including me.
  11. ^^ Passes renewed online or at the park are ready to use. Only new passes need to be processed.
  12. It starts at 9:30am, and the lineup is available here: https://www.visitkingsisland.com/item/Season-Pass-Benefits-7-10-14-23/Early-Ride-Time-7-10-14-30 In April/May, it's Diamondback, Woodstock Gliders, Snoopy's Space Buggies, Woodstock Express.
  13. As of an hour ago, there were less than 50 tickets remaining for CoasterMania, according to Tony Clark via Twitter.
  14. The picture posted earlier in this thread showed self-scan lanes adjacent to regular lanes. Perhaps this is done so that there's a nearby associate to help those having trouble with the machine.
  15. Last fall, the park allowed 2015 Gold & Platinum passes upgraded to either 2016 Gold or 2016 Platinum to be considered renewals. Several people doing this got the other fall renewal perks (i.e. discounted bring-a-friend & one free Fast Lane Plus). With 2016 platinum, you can easily tell if it was a renewal by checking the price on your receipt. The discounted price for renewals was $180.

    Project 2017?

    I've ridden the log flume many times, and my shoes have never been excessively wet afterwards. White Water Canyon can go either way. If you taunt the tower operator and/or Thrill_Biscuit is manning the coin-operated geysers, all bets are off.
  17. If I recall correctly: 2012-2013: $12 2014: $12 Mon-Thu, $15 Fri-Sun, $12 online 2015: $15, $12 online
  18. Not available as part of the event. I'd venture to guess that the shower trucks were underutilized during the (free) trial event in 2014 at Cedar Point.
  19. The park's mobile and desktop sites are entirely separate, and links to specific pages on the desktop site redirect to the mobile website's homepage if viewed on a mobile device. To stop the redirection, and view a page from the desktop site on your mobile device, append ?mobile=0 to the URL. So, https://www.visitkingsisland.com/events/things-to-do/events-and-promotions/Coaster-Campout-7-28-15-45?mobile=0
  20. From the Carowinds event page: Drop Zone? What's that? Non-campers wouldn't have the event credential necessary to participate in activities or to remain in the park after closing.
  21. ^ Such a ticket is indeed available.
  22. That massive dose of food color has to end up... somewhere. As for the safety aspect, I'd be much more concerned about food dyes in beverages that are consumed much more often than novelty ice cream treats.

    Tell that to Carowinds fans.
