I'm excited to see this ride come back. I was just a baby when this ride was around the first time. I'm hoping they keep the guns working all the time so I have a chance to compete with my friends.

I would add a Floorless roller coaster for the families. I know nobody buys those anymore, but with the wider track and vest restraints, it could be a hit for Kings Island.

I miss the paper maps and brochures very much. I used to collect them. I still have a shoebox full of them. The last year I collected was 2018 before everything went paperless.

The park isn't going to make changes because cleaning and janitorial work doesn’t directly bring in money.
All of the parks can afford proper janitorial staff, safer operations, and better guest service; but of course that means old Zimmerman won't get all $9 million of his stock awards.
I wish I could react with an angry emoji. Stupid corporate greed.

I attended Coasterstock for the first time this past weekend.
Day 1
Day 2 (Mike Koontz Day)
You probably saw me. I am the guy in the grey sweater taking pictures of the first hill. I was taking multiple shots of the first hill of The Beast.

I have to admit, I didn't see the backwards racer joke until today. That would be awesome If they brought that back, but the maintenance team would never allow it.

^^ Wow! Go David! I wish you the best and hope nothing stops you from achieving that goal. If you happen to take a picture of Adventure Express, I'd be happy to share it on my page that I run online.

Here's a question for Don. Did you ever in your 17 years working for Kings Island, ever want to work a season at Cedar Point? I bet you would have gained a lot of fame at America's roller coast!

I find this funny that we made a thread about which bathroom is the best at Kings Island. While I'm here, I'm going to say that the restroom by The Bat/Banshee is the best one in the park. It just seems like one of the least used restrooms in the park. I also enjoy a bathroom where some punk before me didn't decide to vandalize the stall. That's so annoying because most of the time, you can't latch the door for privacy and people coming in might try to walk in on you.

Is that bridge that the griswolds go under an actual bridge that goes to magic mountain?
-
I would also add Rick Astley in the shed. Could you imagine arriving in the shed and getting Rick rolled? Lol

I'm hoping to go as long as my friend can get on his phone in time to purchase them. My work doesn't allow me to keep my phone on me in the work zone. Unsecured area is a different story. But, by the time I go on break, they might be sold out so It's good that he has a job where he can step away and use his phone.

Well I don't know what would get me punched. But I do know if I went up to someone and said The Beast is better than Voyage at Holiday world, I would get laughed at! I actually mean that by the way!

That's nice of them to light up the Eiffel Tower as early as February. Maybe security did that to have some fun. I hope they take down the winterfest sign in front of the fountains soon. I think that's the only thing they forgot.
-
^ Maybe something like what Cedar Point received a couple years ago?
-
My idea would be more towards making the tomb raider building smaller since it's just a haunt in September and October. They don't need that much ceiling in there.
-
If arrows weren't becoming extinct nowadays, after the last lift Hill of Adventure Express, I would add a helix after that little drop that would just go straight into the station afterwards. Give more to the adventure right?

I think the fountains are there because of the nostalgia of Kings Island. If you remove those, there would be an uproar of complaints from the fans and enthusiasts.

Twenty-five years ago when I was in High School, I thought the introduction of the GIGA roller coaster was the coolest thing. I was excited to go around telling everyone what was happening in the roller coaster world. Now in days, people are like woopy do!
-
I would ask Don this too. Would it be hard to swap a song and re-program the theme in the shed? I would love to hear a song like, "Bad moon on the rise"
-
I would ask Don this. I know you don't work for the park anymore, but if you did, this would be my question. Since the merger, would you want to work for the park now compared to when it was just known as a Cedar Fair property? Like, would it bother you to work there under the Six Flags merger?
-
Since the off-season began, has there been any word possibly of what might happen with the SOB station?

Interesting as O’Rourke is listed and they’ve done demo at the park. So is something being removed?
Maybe they're removing the SOB station this off-season.
Do You Miss Paper Maps?

^If you request it, could they still make you a plastic card?
