I've cooled down now and I'm now thinking about the positive...they could have taken off Diamondback but at least they kept it. It's just that Invertigo isn't really a favorite ride of mine and it's not one I have to ride when I go to Kings Island for a day. Oh well. Guess I'll go ride Flying Ace Aerial Chase.

So, they add Planet Snoopy rides to the ERT? I was so excited to see what they would add. And they add Planet Snoopy RIDES? Also, Invertigo? My weekly plan is always go to Diamondback then go to Beast. Now I would have to walk to the other side of the park to ride something else? This is crap! The point of ERTs is to get onto the major rides at Kings Island before crowds get here. Now it's Planet Snoopy and Invertigo? Say what? (if I had waited until tomorrow to post this it I wouldn't have yelled but now I have to get it out of my system).

Sometimes I go with one friend, other times I go with two or three. One friend is the best way to go - easy to decide what rides to go on, and easy to choose what seat to ride in.

I have a Gold pass and have for about three years. I always ask my family if we can get Platinum, but the family wants to spend that money on vacations each year. Also, whenever I say, "Well, platinum passes would let us go to any Cedar Fair amusement park!" and the same response is, "We have Kings Island down the street from us...why would we need to go to other amusement parks?" Oh well. Maybe someday I will get them.

What if we have already bought or Gold Passes last fall?

Greg Scheid on Twitter, something interesting.

A Thursday? Oh, well then April 21.

I would open it earlier, but not too much earlier. Maybe April 19 like a few years ago. That would make it a whole week closer!

Yes, I do. But the theme would have to be toned down a bit. It would probably cost so much to get on Disney's level! Although now that I think about it we already have Boo Blasters and a new ride could just replace that.

Very cool pictures! This year you should do it again to get aerial views of Soak City along with Kings Island with WindSeeker and Dinosaurs Alive!

Irresponsible parent. Why would you wait in a line for a ride then get out of it? Although I do think the ride operator should have noticed no parent with the child. It's a shame that a lot of accidents (if not all) are because of irresponsibility or being dumb.

Wow..sorry, but I just have to correct you. One, The Haunted Mansion is at Magic Kingdom (why would it be at a zoo?) and the movie came WAY after the ride. Plus that's not blending live entertainment with a ride...just saying.

Almost as bad as when people spell it King's Island and not Kings Island.

This situation is kind of weird. A 48" height restriction for a carnival ride like that, and still, a three year old fell out? They should not change the height restriction, but add seat belts! This girl was a pretty tall toddler though...

Speaking of the parking lot, has it ever been repaved? Random question but just wanted to know. It doesn't appear so as I drive by, but that's going 70 on the highway, so take my word at 100%. They've definently done something though, they've torn up a small part of the pavement, looks like perhaps they're going to put in some grass/curb dividers b/w regular parking and gold parking, if I had to guess, but its hard to tell for sure from I-71. I've seen it now, it is really bad. But I was referring to any time in the past, not right now.

The Skyline food served inside the park should be the same as outside. Except the fries are crinkle cut, for whatever reason. That would be correct. The cheese is kind of gross and chunky sometimes. That's pretty much it. But it's the cheese that makes , IMO.

Can someone explain what Invertigo means? Vertigo is a type of dizziness where you feel in motion when standing still, so wouldn't "Invertigo" mean not dizzy? Kind of random but I've always wondered this.

I love Skyline but the park's Skyline isn't the same, in my opinion. So I don't eat there. But everyday it's something different. Although most of the time I go to Panda Express. I don't care how expensive it is...it's SO good!

A few rides could have better theme, like: Flight of Fear (a pre-show would be awesome) The Beast (instead of the music on the lift hill, maybe a story all told by sound, like someone screaming, a beast killing people, stuff like that, hah..) Flight Deck. They could do so much with that queue. Make it an experience like Disney. Add a storyline, make the queue actually interesting. Boo Blasters might actually be the only perfectly themed ride.

I loved Toledo Zoo when I went when I was around 8. They had a lot of cool exhibits and at the time had a dragons exhibit that was really neat. It was also very clean!

^Sometimes my restraint does the same when they first put it down, which honestly I hate, so I keep pushing it down all the way until it locks.

I honestly doubt anyone would buy it, it's so run down it would be very hard (and expensive) to upgrade. How bad was Wyandot Lake when it closed?

Yes, the question is now...what will be there? Do you think it will just be free land or do you think something will replace it?

Where will the slides go? Will they just tear them down?
