Coney Island/Sunlite Pool Demolition
DJSkyFoxx replied to beastfan11's topic in Coney Island Central
Ok so now the question to ask is, how possible would it be to obtain a piece of the pool? Silly I know, but I'm sure I'm not the only one thinking this. Years ago when the old Market Square Arena in Indianapolis was being demolished, my mother and I took a trip downtown and simply asked a construction worker for a piece of the concrete from it. Dude was cool about it and said he literally had dozens of folks asking for a piece since it meant so much to them, especially people my mom's age who grew up going to concerts there. Makes me wonder if O'Rourke would be as cool about such a request. -
Total Eclipse Of The Point
DJSkyFoxx replied to Orion-XL200's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
I look forward to hearing how the event turns out from members on here who are attending -
I'm between The Bat and Banshee's ride logos. -The Bat because I think bats are cool anyways and I really love how they created the letter "A" to resemble an upside-down bat without compromising the letter itself. I honestly wish there was more merch available with the logo on it. I'd love a dri-fit sleeveless shirt in bold black and orange colors with that logo on it. -Banshee's logo has both a 90's aesthetic and still has a modern feel to it as well. It's bold yet graceful and of course the color scheme is just so eye-catching. On the note of colors, I do really hope they give Banshee a fresh coat of paint soon. She deserves it.

It's also worth noting that despite the fall of some iconic Arrow coasters, we are seeing some TLC and restoration being given to Nessie, and that this shows it is entirely possible to preserve these old Arrows if a park/company chooses to pony up the resources to make it happen.

Restaurants OR Food You Want To Bring Back To Kings Island?
DJSkyFoxx replied to kingsislandfan1972's topic in Kings Island
Ok so, I'm not in any way shape or form a huge fan of pumpkin spice or seeing the need for everything to be pumpkin spice flavored...however...I really really reeeeeeally LOVED the pumpkin spice funnel cake that they had a few years back as one of the special treat offerings during the fall season. I would be stoked if they brought it back every year and not as a mini-funnel cake, but a full sized one. -
Also I forgot how full and thriving the trees were at the front of the park. I miss that view

Kings Island 2024 Food Reviews and Discussion
DJSkyFoxx replied to SmartCat7162's topic in Kings Island
Commence people cupping their hands for said free water instead of using a containment device because of the upcharge. To make it spicy, a hand sanitizer dispenser will be placed right at the counter so their hands are clean but their water will have a hint of lemon and alcohol. Fancy -

Coney Mall Subway Becomes Coney Mall Cocktails

*New for 2024!* "Coney Mall Brawl"-come witness hammered strangers fight one another in the Midwest's largest entertainment center! Grab a seat and have a drunken good time!!! ***Show times may vary. -
I've never really understood the whole "secrecy" of shutting down webcams while rides test. I mean unless they are fearful of some catastrophic event and they don't want people to witness that, it doesn't make sense when other parks have left their webcams up for their new coasters as stated above while testing. I would think it would be smarter than having people attempt to trespass on grounds to witness testing.

Coney Island/Sunlite Pool Demolition

Goodbye Coney....Goodbye....Electric Boogaloo -
I read on their social media that they are still trying to get the timing on the holding brakes right for the dangling effect, but its still cool to see an official POV. Short but sweet little ride.

How busy do you all think Pass Holder Preview Day will be this year? With it being later in the day? I still suspect it will be pretty busy seeing as it's PPD and with it being an evening thing, a lot of folks might just come through after work. But then I see it as because its later in the day it may not be as busy as past years. Knowing Kings Island fans though, it'll be busy.

Age Discrimination Lawsuit-Cedar Point
DJSkyFoxx replied to DJSkyFoxx's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
I definitely agree that 18 year olds shouldn't be housed with grown adults, however, there still could have been a solution to keep things separate but equal. Maybe offer a housing stipend in the local hotels -

My thoughts exactly. Not to mention when the kids go back to school, the adult workforce is needed that much more. -
Coney Mall Subway Becomes Coney Mall Cocktails
DJSkyFoxx replied to Taylor.B03's topic in Kings Island
Another food place definitely would have been ideal. Like some of you, I like to treat myself on a rare occasion to an adult beverage, especially if its a specialty collab beer with say Sonder ( Blue Ice Cream/Strawberry Funnel Cake) or the likes. But otherwise, I don't care to spend $13+ on a drink that I can get much cheaper elsewhere. It will be interesting to see how much business this gets. -
Looks like a good line-up for the year. Glad to see a pretty good mixture of stuff for everyone.

1) Sol Spin 2) Drop Tower 3) Delirium Sol Spin is just so much fun and easy to ride. I enjoy the fact that is just forceful enough to be thrilling but not so much to where its uncomfortable. Plus the overall feeling of being able to put your arms and legs out and fly is just awesome. Drop Tower has always been fun. Hardly anyone I know wants to ride it with me so its usually one I go alone on because it freaks too many people out. But I like it for the view and the awesome seconds of weightlessness during the drop. Delirium is just a good time. Honorable mentions: -Monster -SRR -Zephyr

Its good to see them doing a variety of stuff for the year. Hopefully this season is good to them!
