Calling All App Creators!
Holiday World has a great app that I downloaded on my iPod. It has menus, ride info, hours, sunscreen station locations, weather, and events all in one app. It's perfect for any amusement park!

Diamondback Webcam Down?
Maybe because it's the off season, they don't want weather to interfere with it, is my guess. Maybe it is just to save money. Or, it could just be down like always.

New Action Theatre Show?
See...I love it too, but when it plays over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again, it gets annoying. Did I mention it plays over and over again?

Coney Mall Construction
^Those pictures are so cool to look at, because of the same angle. When was the first picture taken? Sometime in the early 70s or 80s?

Holiday World 2011

Next week: Our amazing new ride, WindSeeker is a one-of-a-kind experience only found at Michigan's Adventure! Typical Cedar Fair?- KI Opens for 39th season on April 30th, 2011
Cedar Fair may be trying to save money; you don't know what they're thinking about opening so late. It could possibly be because of the weather; they might want to start out the season on a nice warm day.- The Best B&M Invert in the USA is...
Sadly, I have not ridden a B&M invert, yet, I plan to next summer when I go to Cedar Point.- 2012
Well, according to news sources, the Mayans were wrong about the world ending in 2012 (surprise surprise) so we will most likely get something new!- Just How Scary is Halloween Haunt?
One thing that might scare you is behind the Eiffel Tower. There is heavy fog, and people chase after you. Another kind of creepy thing is when you're near mazes all you are is screaming. But, it's not "scary". People just jump out at you, but for some reason it's hilarious and addicting!- Gold Pass Q
- Gold Pass Q
I know, I know, another gold pass question...but it's KI's fault for not saying this on their site. I was looking at the hours and KI opens at noon today, right? Now I look at Gold Pass VIP Benefits and it says "ERT except for Haunt Fridays". So....when's early ride time when it opens at noon? 11 o'clock?- holy jam packed park, Batman!
I am wondering what's triggering the attendance this year for all amusement parks. I heard Holiday World hit its highest attendance record for the whole year in their history. Cedar Point has 60,000 people in one night. Kings Island has been outrageously crowded the past several months. Wonder what's triggering it?- 2012
See, here's the problem. I wish for a nice small ride or roller coaster too. Yet all amusement parks are fighting too hard for the "coaster crown". We all know we won't get our wishes unless this dumb coaster competition is done with.- holy jam packed park, Batman!
Holy...crud. That's about the most crowded I've seen an amusement park in awhile. Reminds me of Disney!- Indoor Haunts open two hours early today
I don't like the idea of opening two hours early...mainly because some indoor mazes aren't really indoor. When I went, for some reason Slaughterhouse opened at 6. There was a ton of light coming through, because there was a space between the walls and the roof. Anybody know what I'm talking about?- New HPB video
Hold on a second; it's not "kid" appropriate just because of a word that really isn't a swear word...a minor version of the other one. When people say it isn't kid appropriate, what do you guys mean by that? I consider myself a kid, yet I don't see how it's inappropriate at all.- SFMM adding 3 new coasters for 2011
I was just thinking that. Just because Cedar Point doesn't have as much coasters as another amusement park doesn't mean it's going to get less visitors. I visited Holiday World over Cedar Point (in all honesty, I did). More coasters isn't always the best!- SFMM adding 3 new coasters for 2011
What just happened? All of a sudden, three new roller coasters, changing records, and adding amazing new things. I didn't see this coming. But, honestly, wouldn't you rather have Cedar Point build one really good roller coaster instead of three kiddie ones? Which is what some people are suggesting.- Why Do You Visit KI In The Fall?
I chose Other. Why? I LOVE the season of fall, and my perfect day is to spend it at Kings Island. Riding The Beast in the red and yellow leaves, going to Howl-o-Fest with my little sister, and enjoying the perfect weather. Although, I also go because of Haunt.- Fast Pass System at KI?
^Exactly. Disney has crazy crowds, and it's shoulder to shoulder in lines. The longest a line would be on a normal day at KI is an hour and a half. Disney can get up to three hours.- Halloween Haunt - October 8th
I am glad someone finally agrees with me that Massacre Manor is awesome. Did somebody try and stop you from leaving at the end? That's what happened to me. I freaked out!- What's your favorite restaurant at KI?
I change my vote. Panda Express. I just ate it and it is AWESOME. I've always loved Chinese food, but especially Panda Express! Mm...orange chicken....now I'm hungry!- World's Best Kid's Area changes?
Maybe not a giant Ferris wheel, but one like at Coney Island. A nice, maybe 70 foot one?- YOUR 2010 Golden Ticket Awards
