I guess I need to get the vaccine soon.

Congo falls is safe right now. I heard they spent some money on it recently to keep it up to date. However, this is a dream thought, but I would love it If they moved it to The Vortex land. It just seems like it's in the middle of nowhere in Action Zone. Just a thought.

So question for whoever answers this. Since people weren't maintaining social distancing and/or wearing face coverings when they were supposed to, will Kings Island get fined by the state of Ohio? Also will they have to go back to having employees in the lines like last year?

I know this is random, but I will be there both Saturday and Sunday. If you see me, stop by and say hello.

^ Maybe something from Queen would be good! Can you imagine hearing we Will Rock You while waiting for The Beast?

Hawaiian Coasters, how far off the ground is your proposed station for Mustang? I was just trying to figure that out in your renderings.

^ Did you take out the theater around Racer?

Just curious, are they still working on re-track work on The Racer?

I wouldn't say it's a stupid ride. I see a lot of kids run back to the ride afterwards. Yes the final hill is a let down after the forbidden temple, but If you take out Adventure Express, you lose your mine ride and a piece of history. I don't think Mine ride roller coasters are made anymore. Someone please correct me If I'm wrong.

I don't know about that. I guess it depends on where you sit. I don't mind taking a beating from it. I believe The Beast is more tolerable than what Mean Streak was.

^ You'll have a great time there!

Did they add more lights to Orion over the off-season.?

I was within one step away from snagging a ticket. I guess it wasn't meant to be for me this year.

^ Thanks for the reply dude. Yeah I believe that Rivertown is like the country music side of the park. I will say that it's interesting listening to the music in rivertown and trying to understand what song is being played in bluegrass? A lot of times I'm asking myself why they put that in a bluegrass tune, but it works I guess.

I'm sure they have to make up for the money they lost in 2020 from Covid before they purchase a roller coaster. I'm sure they're talking with different roller coaster manufacturers before they make a final decision. I would guess that things are in the design phase.

I know this is off-topic, but does anyone know If The Beast will have the red, orange, and yellow color scheme on their trains this year?

I would love it if they played some country in the park. Maybe some Rascal Flatts.

^ Do you guys think they'll put the tickets on sale during the day? I'm worried I'll strike out because I'm working during that time and not allowed to have my phone on me to order them.

It's good to know that they're looking out for the employees this coming season. I mean that as in, they might close the line sooner so they don't have to work as long to get us guests out. I used to work retail so I understand how frustrating it can be to get everyone out.

I love the smell of the water shooting up from the fountains as you make your way thru the front gate. Someone else mentioned the smell of chain lube as you're waiting in line or actually on the ride. The smells of the fresh fudge being made on International street, the smell of skyline chili, and Larossa's pizza in both sections of the park(International Street and Rivertown).

SDC? What's that short for?

I've always felt like Congo Falls should have been moved over to where the Crypt building is now instead of keeping the building there. After they took out the ride, I felt like this is a perfect opportunity to move Congo Falls over there. I also liked the idea another poster said about keeping the beginning part of the queue of the crypt building in tact, but tear down the bigger part of the building to the point where you can see more of Diamondback. But not just because of that, but because the haunt that they use every year doesn't need that much height room.

Yes we do. They haven't been commented on lately. I'm guessing people are bored with those topics. I voted for other since I love the B&M floorless design and I"m sure people are tired of reading that from me lol.

^ I know Kings Island uses the Action theater for the haunts usually, but would they ever consider using it as a new indoor ride? I'm not sure what kind of interactive ride you could put in there now in days because they gutted the old stuff from the 90s and early 00s. I guess my question is would it be more cost effective to just rebuild the whole a new building If they were to put in a new interactive ride?
