  1. Thanks for providing a tiktok link to the official KI account since the website makes no mention of a tiktok social media presence Which one of the comments in the comments is your favorite LOL.
  2. The enthusiasts just want something other than B&M
  3. Sold to the man with the soprano sax!
  4. It would have to be the bluegrass versions
  5. Since those songs are not country... (cross-threading)
  6. country music
  7. Now that we have fireworks again, be sure to check out the new app Kings Island Live and turn your phone into part of the Royal Finale (must be present in the park for it to work)
  8. They let riders into the Orion line until 10pm last night. I suspect the person you heard it from is mistaking that they shut it down early for the fireworks for shutting the line down early...
  9. ^Yes, although it might be up to 6 songs now
  10. Open til 10, so come on down and witness with your own eyes lol
  11. Effective July 1st, reservations are not needed for Cedar Point, but will still be required for Cedar Point Shores. They also added operating days in August.
  12. The FS crew is rocking too, including your favorite @King Ding Dong
  13. Orion crew is rocking it too today!
  14. Line jumping has almost always happened (can't speak to like Coney back in the roaring 1920s LOL). I think FL has given some that do not have the money for FL the idea that it is ok to line jump. With many of the queues being close together, I have seen as someone else pointed out, someone entering the main line to get past the front of line employee, jump into FL line and then re-enter regular line just out of site of the ride separator at the station. I remember when the park used to have signs posted that was just about line-jumping and being ejected from the park at the entrance of many rides. Now they are non-existent and/or buried among the wall of text sign at almost every entrance, so nobody reads them, just like my wall of text posts LOL. Like everything, social media has allowed our knowledge of it happening to be more front and center. Most people post negative on social media "The place sucks - long lines and line jumpers all day" type posts. Very few post about the wonderful, event-free day they experienced. But in my opinion the bigger issue are those that feel it is necessary to vape and smoke in a queue line. I see that way more often than line-jumpers. More employees in the queues would be a start to solve both problems. While it sucks to see line-jumpers, I do not think it is to the point that much will be done at this point. They say you can tell an employee or text the hotline number. Unless they hand out numbers at the entrance and the line separator checks numbers and boots out anyone out of sequence or without a number, you really cannot put enough staff in the queues to prevent it.
  15. I know that shocks you LOL.
  16. Didn't one of the original versions of the app have a find my friend mode LOL
  17. And that line will stop no one LOL #tweetupABOUTtoHAPPEN
  18. The article said The Branson Coaster, and sure enough that is what it is called. Kinda like the Smoky Mountain Alpine Coaster. https://thebransoncoaster.com/
  19. Dinos like water, that is why they went extinct on the KI dry side of the park
  20. So sad. https://www.yahoo.com/news/boy-injured-branson-roller-coaster-163058917.html
  21. And the mime.
  22. Early on it made sense to let the public assume they were one in the same. But given all the issues KI has had with staffing, reduced hours, fights, etc, it was time to distance themselves from this delay.
  23. At least the article finally says this "Small Brothers and Terra Firma, the joint owners of Camp Cedar" and "As the property manager, Kings Island is not responsible for the construction or completion of Camp Cedar." Not that anyone will pay attention to that or recognize that it is not owned by KI. I guess there is always next year.
  24. It doesn't look like it in the picture, but I thought earlier in the season it looked like they either recoated or sealed over the blacktop and you just see the prints kinda coming thru?
  25. Without ...... I knew it wasn't about me
