BB1

Well, I think another name wouldn't be bad, but it will do with the lake; I always have liked the region of Disney, and I am glad it is moving in a good direction.

I like the new over hang as well, great work on KIC!

Oddly enough, no one really has said something I didn't miss till last year. Many of us probably still remember these, the old boat and monster truck games, although they were nickel and dime games, they were classics of my days at KI, I still see the old remains and think about what if, which I think about many things..

I like the new shirt ideas, some of the already said thoughts on the shirts do sound plausible. If I may intervene, I would like to pose a idea to where the back is anything you wish, for example, if one wanted a drawing/sketch on his or her's shirt, then one may do so, or just a username/name on the shirt, with those ideas there can be a bit of extra work, so I would think that a proper price should be made for each choice, if each choice can be used in an accurate process. It is always better to have options sometimes, while at other times it can be a problem. While on the topic, welcome to KIC, we are happy that you came, also, excellent work on the new logo, it makes this professional site look more and more like the best site for anything KI or other parks in general, I expect great things from your excellent work that I know you can achieve on this site

Unless if it is the Big Red Machine V-II, I am sorry sir, but no.

On WLW 700 Don is talking about this just now. He mentioned guests, ironically like us. Thanks KI!

Well, as it can be inferred, the new thing is a new sit down restaurant called "Reds Hall of Fame Grille". It is red, it does have a great view on Diamondback, and many all-stars will be there at the park. I am glad they took this new step, re-embracing the culture that has faded from KI from yesteryear, I believe that through this that people that go to KI could actually see how Cincy is and a bit of who it is. A bit of the German heritage, the fun days of Coney, Larosa's pizza, Servatti's, and now the Reds, it is now becoming more of the KI I have been waiting for.

Chugh, I was using a rhetorical question, but yes I believe there is a possibility of it being made.

Has anyone ever looked off of a red tall coaster that is twin to our park? That could be considered as such....

Well, I think it's ironic how he used what I just posted a few moments ago, Allusions, now found in your local twitter. This brings me to think that we may get a Intimidator 305, but that can be considered in many other ways as well.

Yes, I thought that using the terms "Allusions" and "Easter Eggs" that one would think of things that are placed into KI that reference to other things, being a common word in my mind, I inferred that others would know of the terms at hand. BB1 who uses his vocabulary......often

Well, the title says it all. This is the place to post any allusions that you see at Kings Island, (if you do not know what an allusion is, a allusion is something in a place, or a piece that references to something else) please note to keep things to the present time, you may use last year in the off season. Almost like a easter egg hunt A allusion that I personally saw last year was basically allusions to Phantom Theater's take down from the MF's where the characters were wrapped up, and allusions more to the Beach Boys songs in SC, from the names on a few places in the waterpark.

It just all lines up too much for me. Remember way back when CF bought KI? They said they would bring it back to the old KI, which wouldn't that be repainting The Racers tracks red? When KIGM posts a red renovation coming, what could it be, Son of Diamondback, a red dinosaur? Then in a matter of days bring up a photo of The Racers tracks being shoveled off, when they could post any other photo of them doing track work on other rides, but it is just The Racer? It all just points to The Racers getting the TLC they need.

I believe it is infact the old "new" red paint on The Racers, due to a picture posted by Kings Island's Facebook of someone shoveling what it looks to be The Racer. The exact post was posted today, https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10151752218313368&set=a.226729858367.174830.155893938367&type=1&theater

Well, hello Son of Diamondback.

Meanwhile a few moments ago "Great scott!" great renovation, it does look sleek and modern, like said, methinks tis good.

I like this article, it brings out who he is and how he does his job sometimes. Which I think is a great idea for him to walk around with the "herd" and find out what he needs to do, which I would do automatically. Great work Mr. Ouimet, (which i believe is Francais?) keep it up, because this company can only grow.

That has been told as well as myself, I wish that it would occur, possessed tikis, it all has been asked, yet still not answered. I sense a darker presence this year, one darker than ever before, a new haunt, or haunter that brings a darker horror to this Kings Island this year. I should really elaborate on the subject, so I can do so here. A new demented presence will come to this '13, a haunt so chilling, even the graves will shake. Screams will become the music to thy ears, while blood and tears become the drink of this dark masquerade. The Haunt will grow thicker, and more decayed than any Haunt of it's kind. Kings Island, scare and only. A diversion? A BB1 prophecy? Or a BB1 crazy talk? The spirits know...

Oh, I thought we were talking about Boomerang Bay at GA or CW...... Great work on the ride color, that may be the first time for a repaint, it looks like a V-II of Face-Off, erm Invertigo of KI to me personally, a color swap.

Beast, hands down, it put KI on the map for many people to visit and it is the longest of it's kind to prowl the US of A.

Great pictures of the park and a well written report I must say! I haven't even got to go to Universal or Islands of Adventure in such a long time and the Harry Potter area looks very promising to see, so this just makes the anticipation grow! Thanks for taking time to post this!

I wonder where a certain rumor smasher is when a rumor is started... I am just going to state the obvious, and most of you will agree, that the new ride location will be somewhere in Kings Island.

A word of the wise, night rides can be 100% different from day rides, same goes for morning rides during the fall, that is when a few Beast enthusiasts ride it more often than usual, like myself. I have only been on one "night light" run and it wasn't really anything new, just was something I didn't expect to see, it almost felt like a 80's music video..

Kings Island officially announced their own Instagram account today, making the park on approximately 3 social networks (Facebook, Twitter, & Instagram), what do you think about this new step in social networking by KI, I like it personally, although I usually get most of my local KI information from this site, and sometimes via facebook. BB1 who never tweets, but will follow on Instagram.

On the other hand as well as major revamps, re-designs, a re-everthing must be taken, and with the budget that CF usually has it cannot do such in 2013. Like others have said before, they plan far ahead into the future, so there is no doubt in my mind something may come to be by CF, a possible change in owners? Yes it very well could be. A change in the whole area? Yes it could be, its like how many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie-pop, the world may never know, untill someday.
