This video was totally me when I first rode Phantom Theater as a young lad of about 5 or 6. That ride was absolutely Horrifying.

Howdy everyone, While I was at the park this last Saturday, my little sister asked me a question I hadn't thought of in a while: "Why is this part of the park 'International'? I don't see anything International about it." So I continued to explain to her how when the park first opened that the different sections of it were themed like different part of the world much like Walt Disney's Epcot. But as I tried to explain which nations each section represented everything seemed to look either German or Spanish, not really anything else. Am I correct or were there other different nations represented on I-Street? If I had to guess based on the above image I'd say: A = Spain B = France C = Germany D = South America Are my assumptions correct? Thanks, DBI

Yeah, it was sad. They didn't even have Drop Tower's lights on. ~Coolio schoolio~

On opening day I thought FUNtv was kind of dumb. But after today's trip, it seemed to make the waits a lot faster. Also I like that they've put them all over the park, and not just the popular rides, rides like AE and Delirium have them too. Also I really enjoy watching people when it gets to Park Trivia or the Ball under the Cup game. They all cheer when they get it right.

OSU's campus is so beautiful.

Good gravy terp, it's a simple question. Don't over complicate it. lol

We did get 2 new ones(Banshee and Bat) Well played, well played indeed.

Really, the excitement's over? It has only been 5 (public) days! I do believe that there are already a number of topics regarding various aspects of this particular building's future. But is there a poll? I was curious about statistics.

Frappuccino is a registered trademark of Starbucks, and as such, is always capitalized. Really? I had no idea about that. Guess ya learn something new every day.

I understand that he posted this. But this is a topic regarding people's opinion not what's already been decided. Also I failed to mention that I did not mean in the next year, but just meant the future in general (yeah I know kinda broad). I apologize for the confusion.

Now that all the excitement of Banshee is over, our next topic of interest is the former TRTR/Crypt building and its future with the park. It currently remains a large tan box in Rivertown that is only being used to occupy a Haunt attraction for about 1/3 of the season. If this building were to be torn down, a fairly large chunk of room would be opened up for future park expansion. On the other hand, it's exterior is already very well themed for a jungle adventure type ride. So now, my question is: do you think KI should tear it down, build a new attraction inside it, or just keep it the way it is as only a Haunt attraction.

It looked less faded than it has in the past but nothing too eye catching IMO. Coolio schoolio

I see what you're saying but the image they used for the shirts is probably from a rendering they made of the original animation. In which Delirium is the same colors it was at the end of the last season. What you're seeing here is probably just the lighting effect the animation had on the ride making it appear rather bright because it's supposed to be showing the sun's reflection. I suppose that's possible, but I just rewatched the original animations and they all had a very vibrant yellow Delirium, even when the "sun" was reflecting off it. The overall paint scheme on the shirt still doesn't seem to match the scheme in the renderings though... Either way, unless they're planning on painting more this week, what we have now is what it is. True, true, very true. Coolio schoolio

That's exactly what our group said. Their was absolutely no way that that many people got in front of us. We were very close to the front of the "mob" at 11:00. Same thing with my group of friends. We were pretty close up front in the mob and still ended up waiting almost 3 hours in line to ride.

*pardon ze double post* As for me, I'm probably most picky about the park map. Ex: The entrance to Viking Fury is on the side nearest the Festhaus. This might confuse some guests unfamiliar with the park. and: We all know what's wrong here... As for the park itself, I hate the way blacktop looks in a park. I think the newly poured concrete in AZ and Oktoberfest looks phenomenal. Also I think the park should do something about Action Theater, I haven't had any desire whatsoever to go back there since Spongebob's 4D adventure-thingy was there.

You are indeed correct. But I'll bet anything that they'll replace the clock. They probably just took it down for when they were repainting the Festhaus. Plus, why would they leave something to look so empty?

The amazing apple software famously known as iMovie. Its awesome and rather easy to use.Coolio schoolio

I was there at 5:00 in the morning! Got third train of the day! Nice! My position in front of the opening gate made me think I'd ride one of the first trains but the people that pushed past me made me think otherwise. Coolio schoolio

...also done with GoPro

Ya know what's fun on opening day? This...

My only suggestion for riding this ride: sit on a seat furthest to the right. Those seats during the Zero-G Roll make you feel like you have come off the track.

Hello friends, (Before I even begin, I meant to post this last night but I think the site went down or something so the following was copied and pasted from yesterday to today) I would like to say that as of right now I am completely exhausted but wish to share with you pictures from my trip today. Don't really feel like typing so this should be short. Here we go: These pictures aren't the best quality but most of them I had to crop because my finger was in the picture. Hope you enjoyed, opening day was a blast. I'll try and post a montage of the videos I took if I can later. Have a wonderfultastic day, DBI

I have dreams about Kings Island a lot. I can only seem to remember the plot to one of them though. My family and I traveled all over warren county looking for Kings Island but there were about 30 different Eiffel Towers and Drop Zones everywhere. We had to travel to each and every one of them to see if they were the ones at the real Kings Island. It was weird (yet kinda cool) though because they all looked different. Unfortunately we never reached the real park. It was very sad. I have never had a dream in which I was riding a roller coaster. Many times have I found myself at the park though. Which is almost just as great. Almost
