At the other parks offering this, the offer is for one Fast Lane Plus pass per 2015 renewal, with the FL+ pass being valid for THIS season (2014) only.

I suspect Bluegrass Boardwalk would be operated better than The New Kentucky Kingdom is now. For one, there would be fewer PR screw-ups. That said, the Kochs likely made the right decision to pull out.

"Cirque Imagine" at Kings Island!
jcgoble3 replied to BoddaH1994's topic in Kings Island Central Newsroom
I suspect that if she had forked over the extra money and seen the show, she would agree. But it's too late, as I will be gone today through Sunday and I know she won't go by herself. -
Good point, I don't think you did have my number. However, I just PMed it to you for future reference.

The season pass FL+ offer was posted on Facebook by the park at 9am this morning. Typhoon was not.

Falcons Fury at Busch Gardens Tampa
jcgoble3 replied to Colonel_SoB_fan's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
According to the park's official Facebook page, employees got the chance to test-ride Falcon's Fury today. -
Which may or may not have worked, given that I often cannot hear my phone over the ambient noise at the park.

The stacking was caused by one walk of shame after another. I personally saw three of them on three consecutive trains.

Yes, what PKIVortex said. Right before closing. Got in line at 7:45 and was walking out of the gift shop at 7:58.

It wasn't even open, I just shot the picture thru the glass of the door on the side. Sent from my Nexus 5 using tapatalk. That's still fine. I'm just saying to give a few details when you post something like that so people don't ask questions. Yeah, neither do I.

"Cirque Imagine" at Kings Island!
jcgoble3 replied to BoddaH1994's topic in Kings Island Central Newsroom
It would not only be nice, it would be common sense. My mother had no clue Cirque Imagine was wrapping up Sunday until I told her on the phone. She really wanted to see it, but had to choose between a full-priced ticket and Cirque or a $15 bring-a-friend ticket and no Cirque. She decided that Cirque was not worth $20 or whatever the difference between $15 and the cancer awareness tickets is. -
I didn't know you were there. I showed up at 7:00 just to upgrade my pass to Platinum for this weekend and grab a meal on my dining plan. I did grab one Banshee ride right before closing, but that was it.

Great that you were able to shoot that. Just as a general note and reminder to everyone, particularly those who are newer, people on here are naturally going to be suspicious if a posted and uncited photo looks "behind the scenes". If you were able to legally take a photo that might give the appearance that you were in a restricted area, I suggest specifying the parameters of where you were standing and how you got it when you post it as a preventative measure. It doesn't have to be much, just a simple "the door was standing open" or "I was standing back on the midway and had a really powerful zoom lens" goes a long way to allay suspicion. In the meantime, as long as that door is open, snap away!

Three Roller Coasters ahead of their time:

Including the one with a gap in the track? I don't think so.... -
As far as I am aware, Cedar Fair is self-insured.

You're not alone.

I think he's just trying to warn the user who posted above him not to make the same mistake.

Cedar Point's New All Day Dining Plan
jcgoble3 replied to Ride On_17's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
...why? That seems needlessly complicated. Plus, from what I understand, Midway Market was the only reasonably healthy food on the dining plan. My head hurts. -
And plans can always change.
-
Just giving a friendly reminder. Admins have asked several times in the past that the source of photos be provided. I'm just trying to help a user who may be unaware of that before he gets in trouble.
-
they are from KIC's twitter feed OK, then. In the future, please state and link to your source so we know where they're coming from.

How are you getting these pictures? If you're working in there, do you have permission to post these?

Not even the full stop on the MCBR?
