Rumor: Gwazi to close in February
Dieseltech20 replied to Oldiesmann's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
I agree 100% It was the worst out of the 15 or so Coasters I rode while in FL. I thought the reason the other side was closed was because the ride would be leaving soon. -
BUSCH PARKS: BLACKSTONE, now what?
Dieseltech20 replied to The Interpreter's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
^Don't feel alone. I cannot read it either. -
Thunderbird has launched!

I REALLY miss her. She was THE voice of Holiday World. The TV/Radio spots are just not the same these days. -
Stupid double post.

Simple. Opryland. My first park, first Coasters, etc. I loved my trip and the older I get, the less I remember. The one time I visited that Mall, I had no idea where I even was. I kept looking for signs for the park on the interstate. It wasn't until we got home and I did some research that I learned the horrible truth. I have never returned to that Mall. Shark, I believe the owners just gave up on the place and wanted it gone. They had visions of a huge Bank Account with minimal investment. Especially when compared to maintaining a Theme Park.

The Governor released 5 million to help complete a long running road project in my area of the state. A comment was made that if it helped a Democrat State Representative in this region to be re-elected, so be it. This was done a week or two before Election Day. It failed. I highly doubt I will have a non Republican Governor in 2016. I feel the same way about having a Kentucky Kingdom then as well.

So what did you ride the most times this year?
Dieseltech20 replied to Miythandria's topic in Kings Island
Banshee. 10 times, may have been less. The only times I could get to the park this season were on busy days. -
In two years it will be black from the flames of the cutting torch.

According to the folks that post on their FB page, T2 was the BEST ride in the park and they are very happy it is opening next year.
-
Well, as long as they get their money, I doubt.....oh.....wait.
-
Dude seems to be really full of himself. Sad.
-
Unless there is a big attendance boost in 2015, I doubt The Kingdom will see a third season.

Wow, this just may bring me to the park on a Friday. I love Wings, do they have hot ones or just wimpy ones? The only way to eat Wings is Traditional.....leave the boneless for the children that crave nuggets.

I ask myself this same question whenever I turn on the TV. Different strokes for different folks...............if we all liked the same things the world would pretty crappy. Not that it isn't pretty crappy as it is. Some folks love horror and gore, some folks like watching celebs dance around. I prefer the former. They say the upcoming season of The Walking Dead is gonna go over the top, I cannot wait.

While visiting Sea World and BGT back in June I walked into every shop I saw, looking for shirts. I never saw a single shirt dedicated to any one Coaster. There were thousands of shirts with the parks logo on it though or animals. I finally found a shirt at BGT that had 5 Coasters on it and settled for it instead.

I cannot imagine why a park in that section of the state would close before it gets dark.

Location on the old King Cobra track pieces?
Dieseltech20 replied to Bansheeback's topic in Kings Island
I'm sure that track has been turned into import cars by now. -
Sometimes people run towards danger hoping to help somehow. Off duty Police Officers, Firemen come to mind.

Lol. Then there should be no blood, terror, death, etc of any kind at any display. It should all be puppies and kittens that way there is no chance of upsetting someone that has experienced something being shown. The feelings of some should dictate the rules of everyone? The only thing I like less than Kool Aid are Herds. Wait, a lot of people are terrified of Dogs so there goes that idea as well.

Growing up in the 80s I loved slasher films and other types of horror. I like Gore and violence (in an entertainment capacity of course) and appreciate it most at Halloween. Tis one of the reasons I don't care for Haunt at KI....way too tame. People just NEED something to offend them so they can complain and force society to please THEM.

Am I to big for any of the rides at Kings Island?
Dieseltech20 replied to Tayzetay's topic in Kings Island
She would kill me for this but...you sound like my wife's identical twin. That said.... She is able to ride most everything at the park but finds some seats on The Beast and The Racer a little on the tight side because of the divider. She has never been on Firehawk, Delirium or Drop Tower.
