The Beast is about to give its 50 millionth ride
kingsislandfan1972 replied to jcgoble3's topic in Kings Island
I would love to be a part of Kings Island history, so of course I would like to claim this title. -
The official "Bring the Flying Eagles home" thread.

So as we all heard before Kings Island may be getting a new flat ride for 2015, ca'nt wait for that. -
I like the giant Jack in the Box that used to wind up and play a little song and stop, and that Clown would scare the living daylights out of people. Im going to Kings Island next weekend so I hope to get a picture next to the Jack In the Box, hopefully it winding up and working because the past two years, its just been sitting there doing nothing, maybe when I go, it'll be working.

The first seats up front on Diamondback always gets my adrenaline pumping, the wait for the front is usually long, but it is definitley worth it.

Sorry, for posting again, my internet isn't working right.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=W2Vy1UINwek Me riding Boo Blasters in 2012.

If anybody has ridden Boo Blasters recently, after the "scare tonic machine" you hear Boocifer say something but I always cover my ears because he's so loud. As for the dark part with the skeletons, it confuses me at what age level they are going for. The whole ride consists of it being a kids ride, examples such as ghouls hiding behind a curtain with a teddy bear, skeletons listening to MP3 players, etch. I've seen kids crying because they were scared of the skeletons with glowing red eyes at the rides exit. It puzzles me about the age they are trying to reach with Boo Blasters. In my opinion, a typical amusement park style haunted house is good enough for me.

Thats a shame, I takes all the fun out considering its supposed to be a haunted house, all you can hear now is the FunTvs, they keep me occupied while I'm in line, but I would rather hear graveyard sounds and organ music once again.

If you put it that way Terp, then yes.

I absolutely love Diamondback, that's the first ride I usually run to, when the park opens, my second option would be The Beast. Speaking of The Beast, I don't think Kings Island will ever remove it from the park, with its high popularity and it's record breaking performance. Also isn't it a National Landmark, which is mentioned on a plaque located at the beginning of the line? I don't think that Kings Island will ever remove The Beast, we'll in my opinion. However, I do believe that the next ride to be demolished would be Congo Falls. I don't really see a long line at Congo Falls like I see at White Water Canyon, even when it's really hot outside. I like Congo Falls, but not as much as I like White Water Canyon, so I could care less if Congo Falls was removed or not. As for my favorite area of the park, it's a toss up between Action Zone, RiverTown, and International Street. For International Street, I always hear music that makes me welcome at Kings Island and usually puts me in a good mood. I also like walking past the Candy Shop, the 80s store! and looking at the Eiffel Tower. For Action Zone, I like the unique style that it portrays, along with my favorite rides such as The Bat, Delirium, and Drop Tower. But I have to say my favorite area of Kings Island would have to be RiverTown. I like the theming of the West, and my all time favorite rides are in RiverTown, White Water Canyon, Diamondback and The Beast. I like the old time photos, the arcade and my personal favorite, The KI Miami Railroad. I like Coney Mall, and Oktoberfest too, but not as much as I like RiverTown.

What is your favorite Water Ride At KI?
kingsislandfan1972 replied to mccarthysnerd's topic in KI Polls
I like WWC because "You will get wet, You may get drenched.", which is pretty much guaranteed, also people complain that it's a long walk even if there isn't a long line in WWC, but there is a beautiful scenery to see, and exercise is good, especially for me. As long as I get to ride WWC, I don't care if I have to walk 2 miles. WWC is my favorite, even though Congo Falls came really close. -
That explains everything then, those are always big issues.

It still puzzles me why Adventure Express was never turned into an Indiana Jones when Paramount owned the park, it's what we all think It should of been.

"You'll never leave Bleekstone Manor, never, ahhhhhh." "You haven't seen the last of me." "Great job, please put your Boo Blasters in the holder and exit right."- Boo Blasters Ending. "Like nice going everyone it's time to put your bright lights back in the holder and please watch your step on the way out."- Scooby Doo and the Haunted Castle ending. "You'll be back, hahaha, you'll be back, hahaha." - ending to Phantom Theater.

I remember when the campground was still open, my family and I used to just walk from the campground to Kings Island which was really convienient and cheaper than the Great Wolf Lodge. We used to go to Kings Island and go back to the campground and eat lunch and go back to Kings Island . It was more cheaper, than staying in a hotel too, so I'm in favor for a new campground , if possible.

For this who don't want to be scared...
kingsislandfan1972 replied to BoddaH1994's topic in Kings Island
I would never need a No Boo necklace, because it love Halloween Haunt, and I don't scare easily. Although I haven't gotten scared by walking throughout the park or going through the haunted houses, I left my guard down when my little brother and I rode Boo Blasters at night, and a monster came out of nowhere near the scene where the two skeletons are in bed together and nearly scared the living day lights of me and my little brothers after we realized what had happend, we soon both laughed it off shortly after. -
The Halloween Haunt map looks really cool this year, I'll make sure to snag a few to add to my collection later this month when I go back to Kings Island.

I wish I could see this because this looks really creative, and I wish I could go when it opens, but there is no way I could come up with the money. I knew that we haven't seen the last of Paramount owning a theme park, I'm glad to see it happen once again after about 8 years. A large majority of my favorite movies are Paramount. Though, I am disappointed that I may never go to Spain and see this, I still can go to my favorite amusement park, the one, The only, Kings Island.
