I like your ideas. In thinking about the condition of Boo Blasters, it makes me wonder when the next dark ride experience will replace it. Personally, I'm an old school kind of guy and I would like to see a boat ride come back to that location. My favorite was Enchanted Voyage. It was a great ride to slow down the pace of your day and enjoy some air conditioning.

Kings Island Super 8 reel from 1972
KIBeast replied to HarvestmanMan's topic in Kings Island History
It's cool man. No apology necessary. Just to see KI Super 8 footage took me back in time. Where's Marty McFly when I need him. -

Sweet footage! A bit hard to watch, but cool none the less -
I'll disagree here. I believe that the Burger King King should be roaming the Island. Maybe around Halloween since creepy is in at that time of year.

I would agree with that sentiment. Coasters are not what brings the families in. It's rides that everyone can do together. Never been on a dive coaster. Not interested either. I would think that one, one trick pony coaster at CP would be enough.

My fondest memories include the Flintstone Boulder Bumpers, the Scooby Doo rollercoaster, the Enchanted Voyage (before the Smurfs), and the KI & MVRR when it had operating characters. And also the memorable vine tunnel.

Ark Encounter Contract Signed
KIBeast replied to Oldiesmann's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
That only proves what they Bible says. The Bible doesn't say anything about hating homosexuals. The article also says nothing about how Ken Hamm or Christians hate homosexuals. And I noticed that you stopped the quote there instead of going on with the rest of what was written. Nice job of cherry picking. Moving along since this is turning into a religious debate, I'm going to contribute some money to the Ark Park because I would like to see it built. -

Actually, in BeastFan11's last post, it is equating Hitler's hatred of the Jews to Ken Hamm's "alleged" hatred of homosexuals, which is not even proven. -
The last 1980 Kings Island home video I can make.
KIBeast replied to VideoFromGeorge's topic in Kings Island History
I love these videos. Reminds me of the times I went to KI with my family in the early years. Some of the best times of my life. Now, I want to make new memories with my son so he can look back and say the same thing. -
Rumor: Gwazi to close in February

Terpy, of course Ryan is part of the problem. Was that ever in question? -

But Ken Hamm is not spewing hatred of a race.... -
Xlerator Hand Dryers Splatter Bacteria
KIBeast replied to The Interpreter's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
I saw Mythbusters do an episode on the explosion of water that occurs when the toilet is flushed. What really gets me is that you can't find a lid on a toilet in hospitals? Really? And I'm not saying that there isn't any truth to this, but at the same time you dry your hands with a towel, you touch the door handle on the way out and someone didn't wash, then it's a moot point anyway. Or the hundreds of doorknobs you grab every day. Or the phone you use after someone else. -
This is really awesome! Saw it on Facebook. I wish I had that kind of talent.

Xlerator Hand Dryers Splatter Bacteria
KIBeast replied to The Interpreter's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
Worth Noting: " Of course, how you dry your hands makes little difference if you're not washing them in the first place. And according to a 2013 study, only 5 percent of people wash up properly after using the bathroom " If you were washing properly (including using warm water) this wouldn't be a problem to begin with. -
WV: Wild Escape Park, No News...
KIBeast replied to The Interpreter's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
Thrill_Biscuit, you always come through with something that just makes me laugh. Hard Rock Park WV? Except HRP was actually built. -
1980 home video Speed Buggy and Wild Animal Safari
KIBeast replied to VideoFromGeorge's topic in Kings Island History
I loved the Tiques. Maybe we need to start a bring back the Tiques thread. Every park should have this kind of attraction. Great family attraction. -

Great videos. I enjoyed taking a look back on my childhood memories of KI. Screamin' Demon was my first for launching, looping, and backwards coaster. -

That's what I'm saying. They can't expect the tax incentives if they are going to choose to run the Ark Park in the same way as Answers in Genesis in regards to hiring practices. I also think that they are wasting their time with a lawsuit. If they want to do the hiring in the same fashion as AIG, then they are going to have to rely on private funding. I'm sure that they will achieve their goal. I also do not see where this has taken an extremely long time to raise the capital for the Ark Park. When you rely on private donations, it is definitely going to take considerably longer to achieve financial goals. I can say this from experience. -

As far as hiring goes, with the type of business this is, a non-profit religious organization, they are permitted to hire whomever they choose and set the criteria for employment. It doesn't violate any federal law. It only keeps them from receiving the aforementioned tax breaks. -

I have no doubt that the park will be funded, whether or not they receive the tax incentives. -
I have a question. Has anyone been on both an Intamin and B&M gigacoaster here on this site? If so, how do the rides compare? I've only been on Millennium force and I like it. I think it has some good floater air time and I dig the overbanked turns. Would like to experience a B&M giga. Did you hear that KI?

Biker Rides Dirt Bike on Roller Coaster
KIBeast replied to Ride On_17's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
Pretty cool, but let's see him on an impulse coaster track, LOL! -
The only Pavillion in Myrtle Beach now is very small with a few flats. They had a small coaster there in 2011, but when I went last summer, no coaster at all. However, a traveling carnival popped up and my son and I rode a Wild Cat type of coaster, which was expensive. Heck, I wouldn't call it a Pavillion at all.
