Passes for the following year seem to start Labor Day weekend. They offered a $6 discount on a platinum pass for this year, but that doesn't mean next year will be the same.

A long, long time ago, Graeter's was my favorite frozen dairy treat...before I had Jeni's. -
The Next Cedar Point Coaster
kblanken replied to BeastForever's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
Watch what coaster Six Flags Great America gets next, and wait for a larger version. It'll probably be a few years. -
The little tracer lights on Racer's lift hill look just like they do in regular time .

Travel Channel fans: CP ranked # 1, KI #7.

Me. But I usually also ride Flyer, the Haunted Mansion, and some of the other numerous flat rides between laps on the coasters. The new Drop Tower they added this year is awesome. I would probably still do that, even if I didn't follow it up with Hershey that evening(free preview) and next day. -
That does sound familiar. But just to bring it all around again, it is just as familiar to be in line for an Intamin ride and have it shut down for mechanical reasons. How about a brand new RMC for 2014?

Furious Baco and X both say that Bolliger and Mabillard didn't invent the wing coaster.
-
Oops, nevermind about the 4-across train thing. I don't think I've ever noticed how long the MF train is. Now that I think about it, the ride is really more like Catwoman's Whip than to Bizarro at SFNE. Just a really fast version of it.
-
Leviathan has 4-across seating, so that will give it a boost. Probably enough to give it a theoretical capacity higher than MF.

Greetings!I'm not sure I understand this completely, or how it would adjust capacity. From my observations Tatsu and the Superman clones have only ever used one loading side. Riders enter the loading platform and board just like they do on a non-flying B&M, and then get tilted into position. Am I misreading what you mean by dual lane loading?

From the presentation materials found on the latest Cedar Fair press release... (http://www.cedarfair.com/ir/press_releases/index.cfm) Page 43, a page about Kings Island: Growth opportunities exist: • Strong value proposition for park size and regional market location • Premium product offerings • Introduction of additional “thrill” attractions ____ Page 96, mentioning opportunities for lengthening stays: • Cabins & Campgrounds -Cedar Point, Carowinds, Kings Dominion, Kings Island and Michigan’s Adventure ____ Page 65, describing some future plans (not park specific): Targeted Development • Attractions: Focus on creating memorable, repeatable, reprogrammable and unforgettable experiences

What would Six Flags think of Kings Island calling their B&M invert something so similar to Batman.
-
I get 183 when I add that string of numbers together. $183 would still be a good deal on a platinum price pass.

I haven't seen Napoleon Dynamite, but I think he is from Idaho. Silverwood and Rocky Mountain Construction are both from there.

Or if you are on a mobile device and don't have the arrows, you can use the address bar. Change it so that the page-159 instead says page-1 (or whichever page you want to read).

Not that I have ever found... I hear the police department is good at picking them up quick.
-
If you want some egg-free cookies, there is a place on the side of a highway in Clintonville, OH that sells them.
-
If they use that exact logo, then they will probably use it at Cedar Point...giving Mantis the name it could have used. Kings Island could take the Mantis name, and theme it to Zorak. Each of the next few years could be a Space Ghost themed ride.
-
It would be sinful to just throw that ride away.

from their website: (http://www.kentuckykingdom.com/kentucky-kingdom-launches-biggest-expansion-in-the-25-year-history-of-the-park/) "...we are well on our way to converting the two intertwined wooden coasters known as Twisted Twins into a much superior ride, which will debut in 2016." I hadn't seen anything about this part before, but wtf?

Bag stolen at Kings Island, think it was my friend or accomplice
kblanken replied to icee96's topic in Kings Island
Powell is the kind of place where a mom might run out and immediately buy a new iPhone if her daughter was throwing a fit because her phone was lost/stolen. It would be quite interesting if Taylor ditched her own credit cards along the side of the highway like that. Do you know whether her cards had already been turned off? // I'm not suggesting whether anybody is guilty or not, only curious. I think I just have a little Scooby Doo inside me trying to figure out a mystery. Sorry to hear of your loss, too.
