Today I made the long trip down to pf. and g. Tn. It was mildly crowded today, making the stay a tad bit unpleasant. My favorite restaurant, the Apple Barn was not that crowded at my visit, and the service, about an 8 star area. The Ripleys Aquarium was not too crowded today, making the stay a 10 on my scale. Ober Gatlinburg was a requiem of my experiences at Ki, the alpine slide had a wait, but it was all worth while, a 9 on my scale. I soon made my way through the small attractions, with no lines, and fun times. The day w as warm and clear in the south with the sun shining and good temperatures. Hopefully my report will help you out and or tell you about a day in Tn.

Nice! Brings back so many memories of pki!

Yay more screaming people, just what the doc ordered

I could see this on The Beast at certain breaking moments, that would be fun, but pricey and uncompatable with modern day technology

So many people/companies have owned our Kings Island, all making their own distinct "imprint" on Kings Island. Which this leads me to ask Kic this, who do you think did the best job at Owning/Operating Kings Island?

Walt Disney's body is frozen in Disney Land.....

I don't think you can make a realistic judgement about how fitting the Soak City theme is at Kings Island until May 26th. Unless you take into consideration on how, how should i put it "Amazing!" the Cedar Fair company is with theming, i guess it is true on that case, just never know

Well knowing how Cedar Fair is with the cloning situation, yes. Now if only we could get a johnny rockets at Kings Island like Knotts Berry Farms....

Indeed it is, thats why i put it down for a trade, a ride that i dont care much for, for a coaster that i dont exactly care about that much, that is my favorite type pf roller coaster wooden

From my stand point i believe almost 45% or less, or more of the Hannah Barberra scenery are still in the park, the others are probably scattered around the tristate, owned by collectors and Kings Island enthusiasts.

You would trade a large, roomy waterpark for a small cramped waterpark with less slides? Disclaimer: Referring to Carowinds, as I have not been to Great America to experience their water park I like the Boomerang Bay theme better than the Soak City theme, it seemed more fitting for any kind of water park, experiences can show that it is a better idea in my book. Also the reason being terp is that personally WindSeeker is not on my top 10 of greatest rides i have ever experienced.

Its not exactly a ride but, the Soak City theme of our park( ) for the Boomerang Bay of Carowinds, or California's Great America ( ). A ride would have to be WindSeeker for Grizzly in California's Great America, it seems better for the park than what is there now.

For me, backlot sc.'s restraints on the legs are not that enjoyable, and The Racers lap bars can be of a pain.

Hahaha The Beast line wont be that long with one clone for now.......

Yes there is, Fall actually is the best time for that in my book, due to the early ride times for The Beast, which i have not seen during the summer

Most mornings have little to no large crowds, most is about a 10 min wait on some of the larger rides, making mornings the best to go to ki.

Good idea! A day before or a friday afternoon for passholders sounds like a thing that they should have started years ago.

Another piece of Boomerang Bay to the dumpster, yay( ),although i still ponder why they dont have footlongs at the subway, hopefully they will with the remodel!

I am sorta vague on the topic, but i have had incidents in which there were too many people in my group to be on one train on many roller coasters, such as The Beast, Racers, and Flight Deck. Also its a bad thing on the water slides like Tasmanian Typhoon and Snowy River Rampage, it separates the group, making the wait oh so fun for the others to go down the attraction, so yes i agree with you on its a dislike.

The sounds of the rollercoaster sound erie and echoing, it would be great in Halloween Haunt! 10 stars on my scale!

Well if they are giving some away i am definately interested in Boomerang Bay items, I would take anything. Thanks my good lad terpy!

You said yes to the question, but did not say what the yes was for terp.

Not anymore my terpy. Indeed i am sir.

Indeed it is my terpy

So the temperatures are rising in the tri-state, which makes me feel as if summer is right here, making me and other Kings Island fans talk about opening day, which leads me to ask this. If you could have the choice of moving the opening day date at Kings Island to another day would you move it?
