Anyone that truly knows me on this site, knows I am not a judgmental person and I like to cut up as much as I like to have fun. However, as a Christian, It's not a choice phrase I would use to describe the #KIGiantNoodle. I do not want to debate religion because I simply do not feel this is truly the time or place to do so, but if it were me, I would change what I am calling it. I maybe over thinking things, but do you care about your testimony? We all get a little silly and from time to time and such but some times we need to stop and think. I would not allow my daughter to call it that. Anyone hearing either one of us would take it as a sexual innuendo. From the comments I do not see anyone taking it as anything but a sexual innuendo either. You may need to think this thing through much more. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It gets named #jonathan it will make Goble feel loved. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I think it needs to be named #Jonathan. His middle name could be Carl. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That actually offers a lot of variety. I wish I could budget it into my budget to do. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Well you hit the nail on the head. I keep telling her that. She now understands a bit better. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Me too. She would have not enjoyed that ride back home had it been the next morning lol. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I want to go today. I wish I could. You should see the blister on my foot though. Ouchy! I did not mention from the Media Day portion of my report that we had arrived at our hotel Wednesday night. We went over to the park to make sure our passes worked. While we were there, Devan asked if we all had our ID's. My daughter left hers at home. This made us travel from Mason, home and back to Mason. Thank you Rick for driving us without complaining and to Devan for mentioning it. Dee even patiently waited to dig into my birthday cake until we got back. During the trip to get her ID, Katie read I think 200 pages of a book. I am happy she loves to read, but reading in the hotel would have worked well. Lol. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I love Diamondback. I was not happy about the possibility of the seatbelts. This rumor was the main reason we made a trip on Easter before they installed them. I was expecting them before the season started so I am happy I got a final ride before they were installed. I think I have mentioned it, but I am okay with the seatbelts. I love the airtime on it. The seatbelts did not change the airtime at all they are really something you do not feel like it's restricting or confining you. I think I had it set in my head it would end up tightening up during the ride like what a car seatbelt does, but it does not do that at all. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have had 25 rides now on Banshee. I still love front row middle two seats and row 8 right side. The crew really has done an amazing job. They have had trains stack a few times, but I know several times have not been due to the crew hustling. Slow moving people, protein spills (so thankful I don't have to clean up and so happy I've not seen one up close!) line moves very quickly. The crew is really doing a great job.

Love phone hiccups.

I wish I was! Hope the crowds aren't too bad today for you. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thank you BB1. Just a brief report. With the park opening late, I was hoping for light crowds which is exactly what we got! It was another awesome trip. It's been such a great way to shake off the off season by having a lot of rides in pretty quickly to kick off the 2014 season. This is technically my 5th time in the park since opening day. Media Day, Scream For A Kid Again (same day, completely separate event several hours apart), opening day, Easter and today. Every new season should start this way! We (the chickens, UnrealNightmare and I) arrived at the park we headed to Banshee. This ride is wonderful and beautiful from every angle. I wondered who all would be at Kings Island today. First person was Manis Man and his wife in line for Banshee. They walked with us to Diamondback. On the way we stopped and took a pic of the orange noodle. I had it set in my head it would be between Royal Fountain and the Eiffel Tower, but it's not. It faces Planet Snoopy. We go to Diamondback and they have installed the seatbelts. My Glamor Shot model Zach demonstrating how long the seatbelts are. Just to help a bit, when getting buckled in properly, the belt needs to go like this: (Thank you random kid who thought I was weird for taking the pic but said ok.) The belts do night tighten up. They are stretchy and retract. Aside from taking more time to get secured in the seat, I did not notice any change in airtime or thrill of the ride. The belts are at least 3 feet long if pulled out completely. Malem and JCGoble were in the park and we met up with them at the exit of The Bat. Dee and I are determined to get them warmed up to hugs. However, these are hilariously awkward: We were able to get a free sample of the funnel cake with maple and bacon. Dee and I loved it, some felt it was too sweet. The longest line in the park was at Starbucks. We waited and watched people. So happy they made the trip down to hang out with us! Thank you for bringing me a jacket! I think I have lost track of the rides I have rode this season already. Tonight I was very happy to get to ride Firehawk. It's one ride I really won't wait too long to ride. Very happy Zach and I got front row on it since I've never rode front row. Also had two rides on FoF. Beast twice, Diamondback twice, Racer once, Adventure Express twice - thanks to Skylar for suggesting a night ride on it. I forgot how great that ride is at night, plus it was great seeing the textured lighting on Banshee. Final ride of the night was Banshee at night. It's pretty sweet seeing the fireworks upside down. We also ran into Duncan and Matt (I forget your name on here) he will hopefully post his experience on Banshee - he's super excited about it! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Initially I thought it would be in between the Royal Fountain and the Eiffel Tower. It's facing Planet Snoopy. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

We are heading to FoF if you are in the area. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Getting fastened in the second time was faster. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Are you here in the park today? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The lines will be longer. It takes longer to get fastened in. The trains were stacking. As far as ride experience it does not change it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Seatbelts are about 3 feet long. Should not be a problem for anyone that can fit on the ride already. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
