I figured this thread hasn't been started so I figured I would start it! I will start by sharing a throwback video they posted 2 days ago. Note: quality is a bit rough...

Season long dining plan is where it's at! Or if you got the all you can eat plan ($30) eating their twice and then somewhere else would cover the cost of it. I wonder if toast and/or dipping sauce is included in season long dinging/all you can eat plan?

My personal opinion I hope the park/CF drops Snoopy and and the gang, when their contract is up. i would like to see them change it up. I feel as though, CF will continue to use Snoopy and the gang for the foreseeable future... Another opinion of mine, I never was a big fan of the Charlie Brown, shows.

Actually something that would be nice is if KI did more of an "undercover" (dressed in normal everyday clothes) security team. I feel like a person might act more civil around the KI security. But if they didn't know that their was an "unmarked" one standing behind/ in front of them, they would act more like they normally do, inside the park.

Line jumping should be in forced much more strictly at KI and should be an ejection from the park to the group/individual, if they are reported by one person/one group of people.

Hotdog! I could live with that! Not saying their's nothing wrong with CF but those 3 controlling the Mason based theme/amusement park! Although I feel as though Universal would remove all old rides as Disney tries to keep them... As for Six Flags, i'm not to sure on.

"Closed to general public, special event for KIC". (Or maybe but hopefully not, some other Kings Island related blog website...)

So Terpy's age is 58 or older, but less than 60. When The Beast is 70 years old, Terpy will be at least 93. I would pay for a ticket to get in that day to watch Terpy ride The Beast, when The Beast turns 70 (hopefully won't be the first time I meet Terpy)! Heck, i'd pay extra to ride on the same train as him (when The Beast turns 70)! My oh my how the park will change between now and then... Hopefully all in a good way! They best not get rid of The Beast between now and then too!

All that flood water, makes me think of it as an abandon theme park (hate the thought of that)! Is Disney World and Universal Orlando affected by high rain levels/ flooding as well?

Man how the world was a different place in 2002...

Lets not forget Dip N Dots! We would of never made it here without the Dip N Dots guy! Happy Birthday KI!

Oh sorry, they didn't show up until now (the seatbelt posts). The last post was by you on April 21st at 7:12. Sorry I didn't say this earlier, but thanks sonofbeast2.0 and Terpy for the warm welcome to KIC. I had similar issue yesterday, stuff didn't update until later, and I made a post and then it updated. Which my post contained info like your.

Welcome to the KIC family! We have are moments.

Lol, I think it was the chocolate lava cake I had at 10pm... Chocolate does crazy things to me sometimes.

yes, KI is the experiment park for Cedar Fair; Fast Lane, season pass dining plan, and the Fast Pay ( http://www.toledoblade.com/Culture/2013/08/13/Leave-walletin-hotel-spendmore-at-park.html#kz0SbM7oFdoqil3j.99 ) Let's not forget the FUN Perks thing they did, a couple years ago! (2012 I think?) Where the more you visit/spend the better the deals. edit: Thanks Terpy!

Some much needed notes before my long confusing/extreme dream... Notes: This is all one dream and it is VERY off the rails! Might be one of the weirdest dreams any of you have ever heard! The first half deals with KI but the second half not so much... Nothing in this dream reflects to me as a person. Like I would not follow a random stranger for starters... Last note, this is a rather lengthy dream, and it is not uncommon for me to have such crazy dreams... Please enjoy and ounce again anything said in this does NOT reflect me as a person! Also had this dream today. I went to KI one day when I didn't know/realize they were teasing a new ride. Well for their first tease you see a dress flapping back and forth. It got all KIC really excited. Then later that day I’m randomly in the Festhaus. Now Don is standing at a podium‚ spinning two dolls. (Like he was spinning his whole body is circles next he says‚ "anyone want to take a guess as to what are new ride will be called?" Then people go up on stage and start saying names. I never went on stage but I was thinking something like Dolly's and Daisy’s Spinny ride. After that I’m suddenly standing in a weird version of Chicken Shack. Well they had 3 different chicken strip thing options‚ one that was all in a box‚ one that was still frozen in a box‚ then some individual pieces of cooked chicken strips. Apparently I was hungry and I decided to eat 2 of the fully cooked chicken strips. It wasn't until afterwards I realized I didn't pay for it! So this time I get two fully cooked chicken strips then some dipping sauce. Well before I make it to the checkout‚ this dude in an EMT outfit‚ says the park needs my help with my roller coaster expertise... So I follow him out the door when suddenly he has someone pull the fire alarm ‚ after that two men in black suits step outside then we lock everyone else in! The man tells me to put on some sunglasses‚ which I do and then I hear fog machines making the whole path foggy. Well after that I see a bunch of people that have been rallied together and one person says "I think they need us to go defuse an explosive device"! (No longer in the park at this point) Now were all marching into the underground tunnel and there is tons of people! We also must dodge this high speed trains. Well we do so and then ounce I make it to the cave entrance ‚ I don't see anyone else with me except a kid that was scared and I said it would be alright. So now I’m in the Minecraft tunnel and I’m playing myself in a 3rd person perspective! So to start off I have to flip a switch to lower the spikes in front of me. Well flipped the switch and it lowers the spikes but then it also lowers the ceiling! So me and this scared kid have to run through this little maze thing. We do so successfully. Now we come to an opening again and we stop for a second then walk forward a little bit to get chased by a giant worm! So we speed through this as we try to avoid the worm when we suddenly have the option to be eaten by a worm or jump in a dark abyss. Ounce I started to fall my perspective of me changed again to me looking as a side scrolling game. When we finally reach bottom‚ we get eaten by the worm... Now though I randomly end of up above ground and see a post-apocalyptic world. (Now I am changed to seeing the world in first person) I also don’t have the scared little kid/friend with me anymore. So there is this big hill in front of me to climb and I start doing so‚ ounce I start doing so my two young little nephews start climbing it with me. Ounce we reach the top there is a command post in the distance so we run towards it‚ me thinking I will find that scared kid‚ but instead I change perspective again to me playing as myself in a video game! Inside this command post I see this nice dog person thing that says I must try this food (he said something I couldn't even pronounce). For some reason steak and eggs sounded really good but I came to believe I live in a world that don't have such thing. After that I woke up.

For starters this will be a fairly shorter TR with no pictures, and i'm only doing this because of the rarity of said events. This will be mostly riding rides with my little nephews but I did mange to go ride some bigger rides of my own and man am I glad I did! We got at the park right around 4:30pm. Boo's Blaster on Boo's Hill: Rode this first as soon as we got to the park, this ride was rather upsetting and boring... Their was like a total of 3 moving things working the whole ride, everything else was not working. This made me actually rather upset. ♫Shake Rattle & Roll♫: My nephew is tall enough this year to ride any 44in rides and he rode Shake Rattle and Roll with me. He liked it at first, kind of got scared, then liked it at the very end. Needless to say he would probably ride it again with me. Larosa's pizza: This is the one right in-between BLSC and The Beast, we have the year long dining plan and got 2 slices of cheese pizza and 2 bread sticks with it. The pizza wasn't very warm, but it tasted good none the less! We were gonna ride BLSC afterwards but it was still in the process of opening up. Diamondback: Waited about 8min in line for it, the lady right behind me was talking about it and said their is seat belts on it now... This actually really depressed me then and I thought this would kind of ruin the ride. Now I get to where I see the station, (this is part 1 of the surprise!) I seen Greg Scheid! I wanted to say something to him so bad, but him being in the station and me just stopping in the station, would be kind of rude... (he was over on the exit side too) I seen him talking to someone and I couldn't believe who it was! I had to take a double look! It was Matt Ouimet! Really wanted to talk to him but he was standing right outside the exit and that also would of been kind of rude due to location. As according to CF biography on him, he is 55 years old. Well let me tell you this, he looks in really great shape and very energetic! Him and Greg Scheid were in casual everyday clothes and only an enthusiast, would of noticed either one of them. But this really tickled me and made my day! Especially since I've never seen Matt in person! Still have never gotten the chance to talk to either of them too... So I get on the ride now all excited, still sadden by the seat belt part though... Found out thought the seat belt has no/little effect on airtime so I was happy about that ride was also smooth, like always! So we roll back into the station and I see Greg and Matt are still their (part 2 of surprise!). I was trying to think of any possible outcome of getting a chance to talk to one or both of them, but nothing came to mind that wouldn't of been rude or something. Well Matt is standing their and then he yells something like "come on!" Little did I know but I was riding DB with Matt's family! At first I was like okay that confirms it wasn't him but i keep thinking over and over again, that first, who would come up threw the exit and stand and talk to Greg threw several ride cycles? secondly, how many people look like Matt Ouimet and visit KI? After I finally came to that conclusion, that I just rode with some of Matt's family on DB! This is like the most exciting thing that has ever happened to me! I wanted to go hunt him down and say something so bad, but ounce his family got off they ran literately ran off. ( I was riding in row 10) Planet Snoopy: After this I went and rode some rides with my nephews in Planet Snoopy. Took my one nephew for the first time on Surf Dog and he loved it! they were having a blast and had a great time! This also made my day even better as they were having fun and had a smile on their face! The Beast: Loved The Beast like always and sat towards the back. I kind of wished/hoping they would of gave the ride something special for being 35 years old, but didn't see anything... BLSC: It was now open and I went and rode it and all the police lights were working, the helicopter scene was working like it does any other day, second row on this. Why oh why!: Apparently my brother a nd my nephews thought it would be a great idea to ride "Race for Your Life Charlie Brown"... Well they all rode it one time before it got over their (just got off BLSC and headed all the way back to kiddie land...), and they barely got wet. Well this ride was FULL of water! Like if it was much higher it would of been flooding over. The water also seemed to be moving much faster than normal. So we go up the first hill and everything was fine until we hit that wall of water right before the second hill and well got pretty good and wet... Also would be worth noting it was only 65 deg outside... now were going up the final hill and when we hit the water, I WAS SOAKED! Like I probably would of stayed dry better on White Water Canyon! After that my nephew wanted to ride "Flying Ace Ariel Chase", in the front seat... we did so and man was that chilly! then rode "Boo's Blaster's on Boo's Hill" one last time and all effects were working and then after that we were tired,cold and wet and went home. Overall: It was a great visit to the park, even although I only rode 3 "big" rides. But the surprise at DB really helped make my day! Also was nice to see my nephews happy!

Wish I could of said something similar in 2009...

Opposite could be said about me... But I still would like to see my picture on the pass.

Train and Wind Seeker weren't running yesterday either.

Was at the park today (plan on doing a small/short TR tomorrow), and was disappointing with he seat belts but I can say, it had no effect on airtime! As for my TR when I put it up their is a nice little hidden surprise in their and that surprise made my day!

Something I seen at the zoo yesterday that I really liked and the park should switch to is, solar trash cans/trash compactors. This would cut down on the cost of buying new bags all the time and also a very green way of doing so!

Never knew the park had a dolphin show?

Two of my favorite rides in the number one and two spot, both gone, maybe that's a sign...

You could say the park is Krafting up something cheesy!
