Great pics! I saw the trams in the distance. Why doesn't the park use them anymore?

It's where the circle is off to the right. It's not in the pic though

I want to the park today with a close friend of mine who has epilepsy. We were inside Flight of Fear's que when he wanted to leave. He said that a light, that as never been there before, made him very nauseous. But, after a drink of water he was fine. He has ridden the ride several times before and never experienced anything with his epilepsy. Do you know of this happening to anyone else?

Kings Dominion broke ground on Intimidator 305 on June 1, 2009 and the erection of Leviathan began during the week of 11 September 2011.

We had an off day today for some reason. It was a perfect day to go though. I get out the 23rd

I changed the thread title for the sake of not filling up the forums with my constant trip reports. 5/14/13 The park was a ghost town. I rode Diamondback for the first time during ERT.my friend and I rode it 4 times in a row before advancing to The Beast. From there we rode Vortex twice then dodgems like 3 times. The rest of the day it was just constant walk-ons including Firehawk, which we ride twice in a row. BLSC and WindSeeker were not running when I was there at all but it didn't really matter. We had a blast! Here's the list of my rides for today Diamondback-6 The Beast-1 Vortex-2 Dodgems-3 Adventure Express-1 Delerium-1 Invertigo-1 Flight Deck-1 Eiffel Tower-1 WWC-2 K.I.&.M.V.R.R- 1 Racer-1 Firehawk- 2

Kenny was out today pulling only 3 coaches due to the lack of today's park guests. I really wished #12 would've dropped us off at the water park. Today would have been a great day to go swimming...
-
Must do attractions Diamondback, The Beast, Vortex, The Train, Firehawk, Flight of Fear, Drop Tower, Delirium, Racer, The Eiffel Tower, Adventure Express, and Planet Snoopy. For food, I'd tryout the new Reds Hall of Fame Bar and Grille, or stop by the festhaus.

Did anyone see that guy just laying there at 0:12?

^ I don't think CF has learned their lesson because there was no lesson to really be learned. To me, an entrance is an entrance and some are just better than others...

Most Embarrasing Thing That Happened To You At KI
SonofBaconator replied to KIMonster14's topic in Kings Island
My cousin did the most embarrassing thing to me last year My first is when my 12 year old cousin and I rode Firehawk in the front seat. Two very attractive girls sat on either side of me and my cousin was on the end. I started to introduce myself as we went up the hill. As we flipped over my cousin started to cuss like crazy. Now my cousin was at the age where he knew most cuss world but didn't know how to use them appropriately. So all these girls are hearing is my cousin cussing his little heart out. He was the only one screaming on the train too, so everyone in the station and the que could hear him. It was very embarrassing. Then as we got off, he wanted to get on again...... -
Eeeeekkk! It looks like someone else has gotten the case of Boomerang Bay-itis!

The Entrance to The Beast (Bring Your Camera)
SonofBaconator replied to BoddaH1994's topic in Kings Island
I wish they added more trees around the Crypt building to make The Beast more mysterious like it used to be. I miss the old sign location. Ice bump 'golbe3 -
KI needs to re-paint the Soak City water slides back to their original Boomerang Bay color!

To be honest we rode The Beast, Vortex, and WindSeeker all under 30 minutes during ERT. The rest of the day we just wondered and rode the train. Occasionally, we rode flight deck but all the rides had 120 min long wait times and we just kept on walking around trying to find a smaller line. All in all, the only ride that was a walk on was the train, which I didn't mind. Also, Congo falls, race for your life, and WWC were walk ons, but i had enough common sense not to ride them...

Yesterday was more or less what I had planned for. We picked up my friend, Chris, at 8:30 and ventured up north. My mom dropped us off at the drop of lane. It was cold and grey. We waited outside the gate for a little while before ERT then darted towards The Beast. An old comrade of mine was working there that day as we approached the entrance. He was standing in front of the ride saying it was closed, so we walked around for a couple of minutes. We ran back to The Beast when I noticed it was open. We were on the 4th train of the day in the front row. The cold air blasted our faces as we rocketed through the first tunnel. After that, I was fully awake and ready for the rest of my day. I noticed Diamondback was down and it stayed down until about noon After The Beast, Chris and I rode Vortex and then WindSeeker. We got a bite to eat at skyline, (chili cheese fries) and proceeded to Action Zone. On the way I took some pics of Oktoberfest and, I have to say, It looked amazing. As we entered Action Zone, I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me. DB was still down, or should I say "up" We proceeded back to Rivertown where we boarded the Kings Island and Miami Valley Railroad Finally fixed the sign Along the ride, they had a little trivia game. I answered every one with ease, but the conductor couldn't hear me since I was in the back of the train. How much did Diamondback cost?-$22,000,000 What's the original name for Soak City?-Water Works What's the second most visited attraction at the park?- The railroad After the train, we visited Planet Snoopy and ran into an old friend After that, I showed Chris around because he hasn't been to KI since 2009. We went to The Eiffel Tower and got some shots. The rest of the day, we basically walked around, rode some more rides, and ate a lot of food. Here's some more pics of our day. I had a strange feeling I was being watched... We left at about 9:30 and journeyed back home after a nice relaxing day To see the rest of my pics, visit my photobucket page http://s1325.photobucket.com/user/sonofbaconator/library/KI%205-11-13?sort=3&page=1

They should have to take a TOS quiz before becoming a member of the site http://www.makeaquiz.net/?quiz=65368&k=b1e2a4f97093e8db979efb2eccf2e88e I got bored, tell me if you find any mistakes or anything. Did you realize I was joking? Jeez, sarcasm is really hard to do online..

I think Delirium is the most under rated ride in the park. It seems kinda invisible to me whenever I visit AZ..

U wot m8? I'm sorry, but this seems like a troll attempt. I just have a question, real quick...why do you always write like you're Australian? lol... Perhaps he has gotten the case of Boomerang Bay-itis. Its a terrible plague that has struck many KI enthusiasts...
