#Truth I make it a point to stop in the restroom at a restaurant before going in or ordering - if there is no soap in the dispenser, well the employees of the fast food and most restaurants use the same restroom....I am not going to assume they will wash their hands in the kitchen as well.

Especially not when your girlfriend is with you

Forget about the pass perks LOL, what about this one that says the the concerts are included with your admission....

Maintenance rocks - it just reopened!

Almost any time it is down is technical difficulties lol. But the fence is usually only put up if it will be down for extended period (like WindSeeker right now with the fence). But The Bat is cycling now with both trains though so that is promising for tomorrow if not later today....

How many were injured on our slingshot? What about King Cobra....I am sure the repaint cost more than the Boo Blasters repair...and it was removed two years after being painted.... Injuries are not the only reason rides are removed.

So I learned from a guest today that Invertigo used to be King Cobra lol

So we have never had other attractions that had work done during the off-season and were removed within a year or two....and one that didn't even open after being painted and was removed months later....

That sign at the entrance and then the fence/gates blocking the exit, just like it was a couple weeks ago...

The Bat is down again and blocked off with the gates.

Per cap increase!

At this point will anyone be surprised with the announcement for next year lol....

The day you aren't there

So close...yet so far LOL https://www.visitkingsisland.com/blog/2022/july/indiana-woman-Diamondbacks-20-millionth-rider?utm_source=park_facebook&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=Diamondback_milestone_rider_blog&utm_id=22SAS&fbclid=IwAR2lGunfTwlX2nFqyxtNtIrt_SdynYiX8RJBkjZwbpUeMfwjvMQ6MWGUPO8 And a local station picked it up: https://www.wlwt.com/article/kings-island-Diamondback-rollercoaster-celebrates-20-million-rides/40607758

Cashless means coinless too LOL

New Dining Plan option this Friday and Saturday at Soak City!!!! https://www.visitkingsisland.com/blog/2022/july/kings-island-food-truck-rolls-into-soak-city-water-park-this-weekend?fbclid=IwAR2awKFr8TTvgMod9TP56dOb0GtbJck3IM_VMwW6JyK0yx1vvGLsofPRQww

Just a bump reminder!

HCSO has taken a beating recently for escaped inmates under their watch, so they wanted to make it clear they were not responsible this time. https://www.wcpo.com/news/local-news/12-inmates-escape-custody-in-hamilton-county-in-less-than-2-months

Imagine spending the day at Kings Island and going back to the hotel and finding out you cannot get in due to a SWAT situation. This has been ongoing since about 4pm today at the Baymont Inn near the old Beach property. It is close enough you could see all the flashing lights from the tall attractions. https://www.wcpo.com/news/crime/mason/police-swat-respond-to-mason-hotel-where-escaped-inmate-is-located

I guess John feels anytime a coaster goes down it is a crime lol. Or they are used to stories being a crime here....

Not surprised at the station that covered its return https://www.wcpo.com/money/angies-list/local/kings-islands-the-bat-coaster-formerly-top-gun-reopens-after-repairs

Just FYI the issue is still happening.

Oh I am sure we can find examples where presentation of food in ads include items that aren't part of what you actually purchase lol. Heck most of the pictures for the 50th celebration food items have presentation items that you don't get for one reason or another. Maybe a supplier issue or the artwork to present day had changes, etc. Or maybe it truly is there for presentation and balance of colors for the ad. Or even the pictures for regular food items. The french fries at Juke Box are smooth whereas the picture they are crinkle fries and the burger includes long pickles whereas you get round, does that mean materially it is different? Should one send it back for misrepresentation? I'm being devil's advocate here lol as rarely will you get exactly as the ad shows. And don't get me wrong as I think they do and are paying attention to the little details. But greenery in a food presentation I usually don't get worked up about, maybe because I am used to the presentation game being used. https://www.visitkingsisland.com/blog/2022/may/foodie-guide-to-the-50th-anniversary-celebration-eats-and-treats

It isn't a restaurant but more of a kiosk lol. Bag of chips instead of fries. Only coneys and drinks.

Its a mix between Great Wolf Lodge and Timberwolf LOL
