Banshee sounds so sexist...like 'ban her' or something. I see a lawsuit.

Return of The Bat...or any such bat reference would be *expletive * awesome. I like how KI has tried to do that over all the decades.

Alright. I may just have something to make the day. Just met a shady guy outside the park by great wolf lodge with a doo-rag. Named Bran Shea. Had plans on paper he obtained for warren county.; had a Warren county public service badge to identify his story. Smoker. Faint air of liquor. Cool dude. Said he hid the actual blueprints for the new coaster inside the Flight of Fear. Rambled about the DOD and fleeing the area. Seemed legit.

Maybe they are storing the track and supports in the tunnel.

Do you see any green Intamin track on 71? While you are up there?

Well I guess folks on this site are just fans of King's Island websites...but not so much for the park itself from the lack of ANYTHING this morning. Heh.

I don't mind if the theming is not there...for there is another fantastic coaster with little theming that has a supernatural presence, running through the woods. And that zone is not welcoming to its presence...anymore. But I still foam with adrenaline every time I sit down on its trains at night.

Drop Tower most feared ride at Kings Island?
Heights scare me anymore at thirty seven. It could be not to mess with death halfway through the cycle - But Drop Tower and the Eiffel Tower are the only two things at kI I will not touch anymore. No rollercoaster will keep me off however...but that lap bar on Diamondback without another seatbelt restraint makes me wonder every time...I like the security of a good ol' fashioned seatbelt.

I think now that those may be footers for a balloon dart game. I for one will be hitting it up at 10am when it opens...so I can carry a obnoxious 20 ft. Python around all day to annoy you all in line. Look at me bros and bras...

Weight Distribution and Spinning on Monster
I always used this manuever as a child on the Tilt-A-Whirls. Basically, on the spinning motion grab the bar with you hands and push your back as hard as possible against the back of the cart. I always assumed this would be the case with all things that spin in one direction. Funny, I haven't ridden a Spider ride in 19 years now ever since being a teenager and going to Wyandot Lake.

I am still hoping that they use the name Banshee and would like to see some theming. It could be done very cheap insofar as simply adding old shacks and cabins around the coaster. Go for the wooded, camping theme with the supernatural all around. The theming would be dirt cheap. I would personally love to go flying around mausoleums and what-not but hey, make some shacks that look legit and I can fake it. And I agree with what Maverick did...take your old theme and convert it to something new if you are a cheap *******. They created something from nothing there.

First Dive-in Movie at Soak City
I just put a TV on my sink and sat in my full tub pretending I was at the event. I even got out and was happy to find my space when I returned. I didn't see one unhappy customer either. Rocked back and forth a few times to get the waves going. I for one...will be returning.

.Although...few shortly beers at the park go well with a hangover. Do they still sell somewhat decent schwill at the crabshack bar? Its hard to find a micro at these darn amusement "darks"

Try half a dramamine. A whole one may make you a little sleepy. I also try not to have a hangover when I go. In fact, to prevent it...I won't drink the night before.

Doesn't Alton or Hyde have one that squirts you in the gullet? Imagine getting that treatment for two hours.

I wanna get trapped on a top spin, upside down for two hours...and every seat is occupied by screaming kids.
