Wow!.... I kind of saw that coming though, after CP's tweet yesterday about "being patient when parking."

Interesting wording used by Hart, regarding the water park expansion and new coaster.... "They're actually all purchased, we know where they are all going, we just want to do a gradual rollout, we want to keep you interested,"

There is no Fast Lane on Flight Deck, there is no Fast Lane Plus on Flight Deck, either. No, Fast Lane doesn't let you choose where you sit on the rides, although when you are being assigned a seat you can always request a seat of choice...But don't count on getting that seat.

Light on.......At the top of Banshee tonight.....

The building below has now been renovated to become an enclosure for Kentucky Kingdom's bumper cars...... Before....And.....After....

They are now looking to fill tech. service, administrative assistant, and security positions!

With all the recent pictures of Kings Island's new inverted coaster....Here's a recent photo of Kentucky Kingdom's inverted (SLC) coaster scheduled to re-open in 2015.... (and the wave pool) (Photo Courtesy of The New Kentucky Kingdom)

I agree with you, great point. The problem is, the teens who are unlike you and your friends and seem to not be mature. When a family comes to the park (or any park) they are generally there for a get-away from the outside world, or a "vacation" and part of the escape from the outside world should be not having to be bothered by teens that act as if they are still in grade-school. There are many teens like you (or TheCrypt) who go to the park by themselves or with friends and cause no problems at all, But there are also teens who go to the park and without adult supervision, and are unable to handle themselves. That is where the fine line is drawn. The main question is raised at that point, as to whether to implement a system at which teens of a certain age and under cannot roam the park without supervision of an adult or not. ...But as far as my actual opinion on implementing a system of adult supervision at KI, I would rather that the park management just doesn't let the atmosphere get to that point that every teen needs their parents following them around the park. Overall, either way, there will ALWAYS be, at least a few teens causing trouble at not just KI but any park, whether it's Holiday World, Kentucky Kingdom, or even Magic Mountain.

Yes, someone else saw it. (Oops, I did it again.. )

The rest of the photos taken by KICentral Facebook today...... Thought I'd post these, for some of you whom don't have Facebook. (Photos courtesy of Kings Island Central Facebook) (Not taken by me) (All photos taken by KIC Facebook, not me) Up, Up, and Away.......Wails the spirit of a Beastly Son and a Demon whom screamed loud enough to scare away Lions and Cobras.......Banshee?...

Just saw this good picture of Banshee from Coney Mall on the Kings Island Central Facebook page.... (Photo Courtesy of KIC Facebook) Great view of Banshee from Coney Mall!

I loved when TOPGUN1993 used to post pictures of Son of Beast's demoltion and pictures for the "flashback" thread. I wish he still posted pictures!

Time-Lapse of the work being done at Kentucky Kingdom...... At 0:25 it looks as if the area being worked on is part of which that will be used by the "new" roller coaster....

So, I'm sure I wasn't the only one who has noticed this lately but it seems that the area I have circled below is where they are keeping some of the supports and track until their time of use....

Yes....Someone knows..... ...Or not....

Another picture of Banshee's first drop..... (Photo Courtesy of KingsIslandPR)

Lots of activity going on this morning, way back where the old trams are located...

Just curious....Was The Beast a walk-on yesterday too?...
