If you remember a while back at Kings Island there used to be a Nickelodeon themed store on International Street, I looked everywhere on YouTube however I could not find any video footage only pictures that I found on Google, does anybody know if there is any video footage of the Nickelodeon Store that used to be on International Street?

Not quite in the line. The fountains are at the bathroom at the entrance to the line. But its no longer Top Gun themed . But did they play that during the Paramount era?

I rode Son of Beast when it had the loop, after the loop was removed I didn't ride it as much, but yes even I have to say that Son of Beast was a pretty rough coaster.

When your constantly checking up on the construction for Mystic Timbers. -
My answer is going between Diamondback and Banshee, but leaning more towards Banshee.

I have had so many Kings Island dreams in the past, so its kind of hard for me to choose just one. However most of my dreams of Kings Island is basically me trying to get their but something always happens and I never make it there. Other times if I get to Kings Island in my dreams, it looks totally different, though I know the park better than I know my own backyard. Has anybody else had this experience before?

Yes I remember riding this when I was little in Hanna-Barbara Land, I really enjoyed it. I really wish Kings Island would of kept it.

Most Memorable Vist to Kings Island
kingsislandfan1972 replied to fanofFirehawk's topic in Kings Island
This is a true story that I am sharing, In the summer of 2014, I have a kind of strange story to tell. My family and I were waiting in line for The Beast, the line wasn't that long so basically I could sit anywhere, I decided to sit somewhere in the middle cart, while my parents and my sister sat in the front. When the gates opened, I sat down and put my seatbelt and put the bar down. Then I glance over and sitting there was a blonde girl, who looked like she was right around my age. "Where did this girl come from?" I thought since there was clearly a bunch of other seats available since the park just opened, and it was very odd that I didn't see her in line. But I decided to shrug it off since she did look very nice and she was pretty I shook her hand introduced myself, and I asked her if she lived around the area, she said she did. She pointed at some people in front of us and she said "Those are my parents!" We were talking a lot and she said she loved going to Kings Island. But then our conversation came to a halt after the first lift hill, and we were going so fast that it was near impossible to continue the conversation. After The Beast came back to the station, I asked her if she would like to hang out at the park and ride Diamondback, she agreed. Then after the ride operator released the bars on the carts, I glanced over, and the girl was gone. Very confused because there was no way she could of left without me seeing her, I got out and went to the people she said were her parents and I asked "Hi I was talking to your daughter and I was supposed to hang out with her but I can't seem to find her!" The man looked confused and he said "My daughter isn't even here!" Then he and his wife walked towards the exit. At this point I was very confused, why would she lie and tell me that those people were here parents? I walked down the exit, and caught up with my family, and told them I was going to Diamondback, they said ok, then I headed towards Diamondback. But of course I didn't see her, but I enjoyed my rest of my day at Kings Island as I usually do. Later at our hotel, I asked my dad if he saw me sitting to the blonde girl earlier that day on The Beast, he said no. My mom told me that I was lying because they looked at the ride photos and she said that I was sitting alone. I was shocked when she said I was sitting alone because I knew for a fact that the blonde girl was there. To this day I don't know if my parents were joking with me about the ride photo, or why the girl lied about those people being her parents or how she just disappeared but overall it was a pretty weird experience. But still I had a great time at Kings Island! -
The building definitely worked better with the Scooby theming, which people of all ages could enjoy. (And with a storyline that made sense to the ride.) The removal of the Scooby gang definitely took my interest out of the ride, and as the years go by, it seems like Boo Blasters is getting worse. Now the guns barely work so most of the time I'm just sitting there.

I love sitting in the front seat of most coasters, but if there is other seats open, I usually take what I can.
