  1. @silver2005 very true, I should have worded it better- "evidence that suggests a giga" would be more like it
  2. I feel like new life is breathed into this thread and into the B&M giga believers. KI fans have wanted this for years and we finally have some legit proof of a giga coming to KI.
  3. Son of Beast Wooden RMC Terrain Giga Uphill in the Snow
  4. June 6, 2006- been a couple of years. So within the time the antiqies were removed.
  5. A couple of things to note. The first is a file on Warren County's website listing improvements to Kings Island from 2018-2020. Look at the bottom of the picture. We could be seeing something be as early as 2020 according to this file. Also with the addition of Yukon Strike to Canada's Wonderland we know that Cedar Fair isn't afraid to break its own records since YS basically shatters VR's records within 3 years of being built. With that being said, it wouldn't suprise me if KI built a ride that was superior to Fury 325.
  6. The project that @boddaH1994 and @Old_Bearcat are referring to could be a Coney Mall overhaul that is done in phases. Phase 1 could have been the BBQ Phase 2 could be what they're announcing tomorrow Phase 3 could be B&M's involvement. If B&M on the document indicates the giga we've all been hoping for, I wouldn't be surprised if the park would want to renovate Coney Mall before its debut.
  7. If its antique cars, they could use the land to the far left of Coney Mall, between Zephr and WindSeeker. This was an idea I had a while ago for a possible antique car return. It's right along the midway so people can see the cars go by. While putting it in the DA woods is more realistic, it would also be hard to watch the cars. Just a thought. I always thought that part of the park needed some love. Also to encourage the 'tiques- on @Fye Coasters Facebook page there's a teaser that says "returned in 2006... but something was missing." The Antique cars were removed before 2006.
  8. I always thought it would be cool if the park could "shed" the last part of Adventure Express and enclose the ride from the lifthill to the station and add some additional theming.
  9. Retweet They could change the stats to be exclusive to America- "tallest dive in the US" and so on.
  10. Lets do some thinking really quick. Son of Beast? No. Even if the rumors are true they'd hype it up like how they hyped up Banshee during the 2013 season. Crypt? Highly unlikely- especially since Rivertown just got a new addition a year ago. Flat ride? Possibly since the last flat ride the park got was in 2015, the last huge one being in 2011. Racer redo? Most likely since Racer is needs some work done. Plus the hint says something old will be new again so maybe that means that The Racer will run like new? If its not The Racer, which I'd be very suprised if it isn't, it could be an old KI flat that hasn't been in the park in years like a witches wheel or the antique cars. Heck maybe we'll get both a Racer rehab and a returning flat.
  11. This ride looks fun. I was suprised when I saw the loop halfway through but I'm not complaining! Its spread out and full of back to back inversions. Would it be wrong to call this the Banshee of Dive coasters?
  12. Double Post- its also RUMORED by some enthusiasts that Wicked Twister MIGHT be removed in the coming seasons to make room for expansion.
  13. Has there been any talk of when they might do a possible 2019 announcement? If they're not doing one this summer it would be the second time in a row that they didn't announce something during the summer for next season.
  14. I just watched channel 9 and their coverage of the speculation where they showed a ton of Son of Beast footage. "Its fun to speculate isn't it?'
  15. Kings Island is next to one of the busiest highways in the state of Ohio and I've never heard of any type of complaint from the Ohio State Highway Patrol. Whenever I drive pass Kings Island, I was good a good view of the park and have never gotten in an accident doing so. In Canada's Wonderland's case the cops are just complaining because something's existing. It's on Canada's Wonderland's property-not on the actual highway itself so I don't see a problem. That being said I don't know if the advertising laws in Canada are any different than in the US because over here some Billboards are more distracting than actual roller coasters.
  16. I know, Vortex's chain would have to go ungodly slow for it to work
