Allusions/ "Easter Eggs" at Kings Island
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.

Twitter Teasers
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.

Twitter Teasers
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

Matt Ouimet Interview
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.

Haunt Thoughts 2013
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...

Boomerang gets a make over
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.

KI Coaster with the Biggest Impact
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.

An Orlando Adventure: 2/21/13- 2/24/13
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!

Possible Ride Station Location?
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.

lights in beast tunnels
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, coming to a social network near you
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.

Geauga Lake Thoughts
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.

School Disapointments
Does anyone else wonder why exactly this is in the Kings Island criteria? I think it would go just right at the Off-Topic area. I remember many, many field trips, COSI, Space Camp, Cincy Zoo, Union Terminal even, it was all fun, I miss field trips really it was a fun day while actually learning something, ironically I remember learning more in a day on a field trip than a day at the school. Congratulations sir, you won.

2012-2013 Off-Season Improvements
Great Scott look at all of those notifications! To a quote about KI listening to us, they do and have over the years. Remember when I said that I would be happy with just a little bit of BB? Then what happened at the waterpark, there was bits of BB still there. Plus there is a guy on here that's named KingsIslandPR, but hey what do I know, it's probably just a coincidence. Also about the new idea, great work KI, keep it up, because this is a great step for a better Oktoberfest.

NEW Dinosaur Boat Ride at the Columbus Zoo
Now is this the same company as the one who made the dinosaur exhibit at the Cincinnati Zoo or is this a different brand? This seems like a great idea, but the trend seems to phase through the years.

GoPro Camera at the park?
Once I got hit by a dime, or a nickel, by a rider on Vortex, so I could relate to those with similar incidents. I have only this bit of information, you may if you want to walk around with a camera on your head, while not on a ride or attraction.

Kings Island Valentine's Day
Or Boomerang Bay, that's another story, for another day.

Kings Island Valentine's Day

Restaurant Reviews
Hello KIC, after a few weeks of no posts i have began to make a new idea for this thread. If you have a review, an experience on any restaurant from anywhere, and you would like to post it then please post it here, I have taken down a few of my own reviews for others not to be affected on their own review of any restaurant. I will post a few reviews here and there, other than that, the reviews are made by KIC. Thanks for all of the supporters and people who gave their own insights on a few restaurants as well as I, it has meant alot for my reviews and it has been a great time sharing those with you all. Post/Review/Ride on KIC, BB1 your local waterpark enthusiast.

Well, myself, and usually a tube.

Ark Encounter Contract Signed
I like the idea, and I like how it could expand in the upcoming years after its official opening. I would like for AiG to put in a rollercoaster sometime in the future, that could bring in crowds.

2013 attendance prediction
I think that all in all, the hype of the Soak City will die soon, Beach will comb over some 'bums, Cedar Point will snatch some prey with their new bird, so I am expecting less attendance this year, or roughly the same.
