  1. If anyone has any dollar bills, the vending machines across from Banshee will still take your money
  2. I am sure it happens there as well, but I have not seen it either on any of my visits.
  3. It is surprising KI hasn't offered a paid opportunity for something like this like a few other parks do for a ride.
  4. Did you notice any line jumpers, smoking in line, or other behavior that has been issues at other parks?
  5. It sounds really funny, but fighter pilots swear by squeezing your butt cheeks to slow down the flow of blood - not as good as their g-suits, but kinda the same idea of trying to keep blood flow from draining to the feet and lower body. I laughed when my Air Force friend told me this, but in many instances it can be just enough to prevent one from getting sick or graying out. A simple squeeze started before the loop and releasing after LOL. Don't ask me how I know
  6. It's Monday-Thursdays for $39.99 on their website where you buy them. I do not believe walk-up purchases are occurring at this time. https://www.visitkingsisland.com/daily-tickets
  7. So we have seen CF build a walkway over a coaster (Fury); Water Feature over a coaster (Yukon Striker); coaster into a shed (Mystic Timbers).... So do we set a new record for the first storage building over a coaster or has that been done before
  8. Is that the trick in getting the stroller attached to the glider
  9. As soon as his pass is scanned, they shut the FS down LOL.
  10. It has rained here today and some quick bursts that don't show up on radar lol
  11. What another great event. So much to do and something of interest for everyone that participated. I am sure more than one participated in every event on the itinerary LOL. Thanks to all the staff for all of their hard work and dedication putting together such a jam-packed event. To put it in perspective, the cost to attend Coasterstock isn't that much more than the per-person charge for company picnics and that rate usually only gets them admission and a meal. Heck even for the non-passholder, the event cost is less than a two-day ticket and you got all of this! Who is exhausted LOL? Who hasn't got enough and is going to the park tomorrow (well today LOL) and taking part in ERT?
  12. How did he get that many rides in at CoasterStock
  13. Wait, is this an add-on to the itinerary Is it like a scavenger hunt or something. I guess I better look around for a lost pass LOL. He probably dropped it at the Rivertown FS taking a picture for @King Ding Dong so that is where I will be LOL
  14. Nope, Paramount added them at KI in early 2000's partly in response to 9/11 events. Then at some point they were removed, brought back again, removed, then spot checks, and then brought back "permanent" around 2017 season. Or something like that LOL. The original ones were more "permanent" looking than the current edition. Here are some older threads confirming they have been here more than the past few years and at least back to 2003...
  15. Yep, this new normal in society is not good! People have forgot how to interact with others. No place is immune from it.
  16. Conflicting reports as to how close it was to the park. Some reports have said near entrance and others have said parking lot or nearby, but close enough that the park had to take action. https://www.google.com/amp/s/abc7.com/amp/knotts-berry-farm-drive-by-shooting-teens-wounded-buena-park-police/10877124/
  17. This could have been a disaster. https://www.facebook.com/scannermacomb/videos/167354831991602
  18. Was there a "Don't Waste Your Money" Topic in the feud
  19. Does this make it official (although the article is simply referencing the previously posted above placeholders on the website)? https://www.wlwt.com/article/winterfest-halloween-haunt-will-return-to-kings-island-in-2021/36980692 I would put more stock into the article if it had a recent quote from a park rep.
  20. Autopsy has been released. https://www.tristatehomepage.com/news/local-news/woman-who-died-after-holiday-world-rollercoaster-had-pre-existing-condition/
  21. Made the news now. https://local12.com/news/local/what-kings-island-says-about-reports-of-seats-flying-off-orion-cincinnati-mason-ohio-roller-coaster-testing-water-weights
