Kings Island Announces The World's Longest Inverted Coaster for 2014!
I feel more of them are that we realize, Millie for one I think of being referred to as feminine, also when I think of the engineers think of them saying well, she is a beauty, like the stereotypical ship captain.

Photos Now UP! - Cedar Point Thursday/Friday 22nd/23rd
Great Trip Report! Though I rarely use the front entrance I do agree that the new Entrance really adds something, and make the midway a lot more sleek. I didn't really notice the rattling on Gatekeeper, though on that I usually sit towards the front. But the restraints, more specify the vest part. It is really annoying I actually just hold, because if I don't I can't breathe it gives my chest no room to expand. Attempting to breathe it still freaking tightening, and hurts. I will be very upset if I will have to undergo this on Banshee.

Why would you apologize, for all they knew you were an underdressed scare actor?

Hello, Welcome to Kings Island Central, and this is great that your pumped for this forceless B&M, that brings shame to the human race. I too am also very excited for Banshee too, as many, not all, but many of us here are.

I actually kind of agree with tr0y this time, I understand where he's coming from. I I have no doubt that Banshee will be an outstanding ride and offer much variety to Kings Island and will be a great experience for the whole family. I too want the very best for Kings Island and I think the very best for Kings Island would definitely be a ride that is reliable and safe especially with it being on the site of Son of Beast. I have faith in Mr. Ouimet, I trust him my home park and the entire Cedar Fair company.

Banshee Construction Progress
Is Mantis worth trying I've been to Cedar Point many times, but I've never decided to ride, I have heard that is painful in certain areas. Is it worth trying the next time I head up.

I'd like to the rights of a cartoon's or T.V. Show's or even a feature film's rights acquired and used in a nice dark ride, I would accaully like either a indoor log ride, and I think they could just redo Boo Blasters, They could some real theming in there.

Most Embarrasing Thing That Happened To You At KI
I have two, one about myself and the other about one who brought the other one upon me, so here I go. The first is taking place at Islands of Adventure in Florida, we were in like for... We were standing in the singles line, and this kid walked up behind me and my friends. He seemed to look younger than us. He looked extremely nervous and was wiping his sweaty palms on his pants, he was looking up at the ride as it shot up. So I had been on this many of occasions, so I being the kind soul that I am, I decided to try and encourage him. I began to say how "I know it looks scary, but you should just power through it, because when once you've get off, you will want to want to ride it over and over again". It was the same spiel I'd given to others in line including my friends. I went on and on about it for like 5-10 minutes, and he was nodding and such. Finally we were all assigned the same row, number 3, left tower. And I know I said we were in the singles, and yes there was a long line but my friends and I had been there many times, this was like the 9th time, so the ride op assigning seats new us, I guess and was kind enough put us all in the same row. So the kid stood there kind of hesitating. And I "come on" and waved him over, he reluctantly followed me. We all stood over waiting for the doors to open. Scott whispered in my ear "He doesn't speak English", and I'm like what, yeah of course he does, he understood all of my awesomely encouraging words. I then looked over at Aaron and he nods. So I ask "English?" he shakes his head. All of my friends laugh. But then the doors open and we ride, I tried to be encouraging and such with out using English, more gesturing than speaking, he got in the seat. He wasn't big enough to pull the restraint down so I helped him pull it down. I then hopped up into my seat, and fastened my restraint. We began to rise and the fog was pumped out. I looked over at him and he look back over at me, we had one of those "We don't speak the same language but we totally connect" moments as he smiled back at me. I than placed my head against the back of the head rest and we launched. As we bounced up and down I looked over at him and he had the largest smile, it made me smile. I gave him a thumbs up and gave me one right back. I helped push up his restraint and we walked back out the exit together. It was really embarrassing but it is still a memory I love, because that kid and I really seemed to make a connection, and was really fun. Even though I didn't hear the end of it until the plane touched the runway in Columbus. Secondly, my friends and I we at the haunt couple of years ago, and my friend Scott, yes the one as mentioned above, who is kind of young. But, anyway he was going around to all of the monsters walking around and saying like "High Five!!!" or "High Five???". Some would oblige but than others would like do that turning of the head, and creepy stare. But he went up to this guy behind the restroom behind Invertigo, he was like African American, and smoking and just seemed very Erie. Scott went "What are you supposed to be?" He looked up at him, very slowly. Then came the "High Five?!?" then man than stood up, slowly again. My dad swooped in and saved the day with, "Hey, lets go ride Invertigo". We than had a lovely time on Invertigo.

Season Passes
I have typically been going to Kings Island and Cedar Point and it really paid for itself, but next year we are possibly seeking an expansion towards hitting up Canada's Wonderland, and Kings Dominion. King Dominion is a little more out there, but I'm looking forward to Canada's Wonderland.
