I prefer to keep it simple, the backseat on provides the best thrills on most coasters, while the front is more scenic. Definitely love the airtime you get on Vortex on the first drop in the backseat.

I've had a couple episodes of grey-out after the second vertical loop. There's a couple transitions that aren't the greatest, but completely tolerable. Doesn't stop me from re-riding.

ca No SIX Parks are in particularly close proximity (I think SFGAm is closest?) but a former SIX park that is soon-to-be home of an RMC coaster is reasonably close.Ah, who am I kidding, I think we can barely call that place competition in its current state. I bought a pass to that place for next year, and not to KI.Sent from a signal coming out of the Vega system. If KK keeps adding coasters. I would then consider jumping ships myself. I really like how they change it up with their coaster installations. When I think of Kings Island's "next coaster" I go to B&M's website and scratch out what we have, and see what's left of what we will eventually get. I wished KI would think outside the Boxed track.

Here's my wish-list in the coming years: 1) X-base gets a expansion with restrooms and a gerstlauer Sky-roller called Flight Commander. 2) Add a Mack wild mouse coaster with mine themeing inside the old crypt building. 3) Coney mall gets a 2 new flats, a Ferris wheel, trabant or enterprise 4) The worlds first Mack giga coaster in Action Zone, will utilize the SOB station and have a cable lift. 5) Soak City to add a toilet bowl slide, or a pro-slide watercoaster. 6) Boo-Blasters on boo hill to be renovated and rethemed 4d interactive dark ride like CW's Wonder Mountain's Guardian.

How about no.

Hopefully that (pending on if successful) money goes to the chimp, and not someone trying to make a quick buck.

Has anyone or anybody heard anything from Kings Island over quality food and food service?

a terrain hugging B&M winged coaster would make a great X-Base addition in the Dinosaurs Alive location.

Wow, do I feel old at 22.

This is why Cedar Fairs has a poison pill in place. http://youtu.be/arfD0MDuCzE

Have you happened to see my hat?

This won't happen. Cedar Fair wouldn't even keep Nickelodeon Universe, and if I'm not mistaken. They rethemed Nickelodeon Universe to Planet Snoopy prior to the license agreement ending. The agreement also had options for extension. Which they also did not pick up. I think that was a mistake on CF's end, but given the person in charge at the time it's no surprise.

Great idea, tho pumpkins can be a bit tricky to grow properly. I used to grow them in the backyard with leftover seeds after making jack-o-lanterns

BING!

Im notorious for that... ['posted]

I will admit, the only reason I voted to bring back SOB was because I missed my opportunity to ride it. I had the height but not the guts.

Proper management and marketing and some capital could easily revive winterfest as year round event. But I doubt the park wants to deal with a event during the offseason. I believe Kings Island could pull it off, but I'm not to certain with Carowinds

Because you'll be in too much pain to care. My fiancee and I rode last seat based on someone's suggestion we were chatting with in line...we both carried bruises for a few days (not exaggerating). I suspect that was not recently. Last year and this year, I would contend that the very back seat on The Beast has been smoother than any seat on The Racer. I sometimes fear as if The Racer may be on its way out. Carrowinds removed Thunder Road, and King Island removed the Coney mall sign. Also when was the last time The Racer received massive track work like The Beast?

Last two questions were very difficult.

Full blast fountains are no fun on a windy day, especially when one is trying to enjoy cardboard pizza.

Take a ride in the very backseat of The Beast, you won't even notice you have a seatbelt on.

Cedar Fair had similar issues with California's agency's with its problematic WindSeeker. Cedar Fair ultimately removed WindSeeker from Knott's and moved it to Worlds of Fun. I wonder if Seaworld will do the same.

It could be worse.

Iron Dragon would make a great candidate for spare parts.

The new haunt entrance is a really nice touch. I don't think it would look good come the regular 2016 season, It doesn't really give off an international street feel to it. They could easily give the current entrance an international street, facelift without actually having to build a new entrance.
