I really shouldn't be awake now, and certainly not at 2AM. I wake up at 6:20, and leave for school at 7:00.

We are just 7 weeks away from the Opening of Kings Island's new roller coaster, Banshee. So, I thought it would be cool to do "daily topic" which kind of follows all of last year's Kings Island season. I will post a picture, topic link, Twitter post, or something every day until Banshee's opening. I will try to post something new every day, but things come up and people forget things, so you never know. But I'll try. With that being said, let's get started. Today, we go back to a couple nights before Opening Day 2013, where the first signs of something new start. http://www.KICentral.com/forums/index.php/topic/27263-early-signs-of-2014-expansion/ And also, just 49 more days until Banshee Media Day and Scream for A Kid Again, and 50 days until Opening Day 2014!

I had a nightmare that I forgot about Banshee Media Day.

I know this is very random, but my birthday falls on Haunt opening night this year. (NO, we are not having a "KIC gets ohiocolts to go through all the Haunts on his birthday event". Not gonna happen.)

The 1:00 mark.

I had a dream about a week back where I was going to ride Banshee. The line surprisingly wasn't very long. It was opening day. The queue was inside, and had creepy tables people jumped out of. During the ride, I played a video game, or was in a video game, or something. It was really weird.

I hope Action Zone isn't being re-themed to Grammar Zone.

Get rid of Wolf Pack... It scared me too much.

Wow! You did a Paper Mario Let's Play! That game is awesome! I haven't signed up yet, but I probably should some time. It really is an amazing event.

I do recall him saying something about The Bat at Media Day in an interview.

I wrote trip reports for the last 2 Coasting for Kids events. I'll let you know if I find them.

I didn't sign up. Somebody better take if they win .

I disagree. People would probably say something if you actually said you didn't like ice cream.

In 2079 I'll be... 79.

All the school districts near us, Fairfield, Middletown, Lebanon, Monroe, Hamilton, and Mason schools are closed.

My mom and I ordered one. Mom got one yesterday. Me? Nah.

Once I was under 8... It was way worse than being old. I couldn't even ride any good ones.

I don't mind long lines that much... Unless I'm in line with my sister.

When Diamondback opened, I couldn't ride it. I did not meet the 54 inch height requirement.

That's sad. Galaxi was fun, and I know what memories you have from the ride, Brad.

At the announcement I think they said it was B&M's fastest invert.

Ok, can anyone do a screenshot of the temporary schedule now?

10:04 AM on January 23rd, 2014, track work on the worlds longest inverted roller coaster, Banshee, was complete,
