  1. Is it possible that Kings Island could work with Mason police to patrol that particular area? That might scare the teens off. Also this is a dumb suggestion for the teens. If I was a teenager, and I saw these warnings around the park and parking lot, wouldn't it be best to pick a fight somewhere off property? If it were me, I'd find an abandoned property and fight there. But since I'm older now, I would suggest they install a couple cameras; maybe have extra security to patrol certain areas such as the drop off area.
  2. I have a math question for someone who is good at math here. I'm 36 years of age now, but have been going to the park for 21 years of my life. I've never counted how many laps on The Beast that I have since I was a kid, but trying to make an estimated guess. I have been keeping track of how many laps I have on Banshee though. I have 116 laps on Banshee since she debuted in 2014(7 years). If I have that many laps on Banshee in 7 years, how many probable laps do you think I may have on The Beast?
  3. Overheard a lady talking to her kids after a ride on Diamondback saying how Backlot Stunt Coaster has been around since 1989. I think she has the wrong park and ride lol
  4. They should fix the parking lot for 2022. At least paint new lines on the pavement.
  5. ^ I mentioned that to a friend last weekend. They ought to build a gerstlauer at a smaller park like Michigan's Adventure just to see how well it does. If it goes well, they could start building more of them on their properties. I'm still on board for wanting a B&M floorless roller coaster someday at Kings Island.
  6. I couldn't have said it better myself. I was never a fan of Son of Beast; sorry to to those I offended on here. Banshee just provides that unique thrill factor that had been lacking in that area of the park since SOB closed down in 2009 and ultimately being demolished later. Plus I love those restraints that B&M provides now in days. I wish Rougarou could have had that same style, but that's another topic and longs story.
  7. I guess I need to get the vaccine soon.
  8. 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.
  9. 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?
  10. I know this is random, but I will be there both Saturday and Sunday. If you see me, stop by and say hello.
  11. ^ Maybe something from Queen would be good! Can you imagine hearing we Will Rock You while waiting for The Beast?
  12. Hawaiian Coasters, how far off the ground is your proposed station for Mustang? I was just trying to figure that out in your renderings.
  13. Just curious, are they still working on re-track work on The Racer?
  14. 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.
  15. 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.
  16. Did they add more lights to Orion over the off-season.?
  17. I was within one step away from snagging a ticket. I guess it wasn't meant to be for me this year.
  18. ^ 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.
  19. 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.
  20. 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?
  21. I would love it if they played some country in the park. Maybe some Rascal Flatts.
