I like interactive rides I seem to like the Buzz Lightyear Star Command Ride at DisneyWorld. But a normal non-interactive dark ride would be alright too.

I love the music on International Street in the summer and when it is Halloween!

I like the Halloween themed ducks that are in RiverTown Arcade its the one claw machine that you know that you can win at, I remember the Duck machine at the arcade in Coney Mall, before it turned into Kill Mart.

I would defintly ride a cruise ship that had any up to date rides, that looks totally cool! Im saving my money for a ticket! -
I have never seen anybody win an expensive prize ever with a claw machine, not even on YouTube.

Have you wasted your time trying to win expensive prizes like an Ipad or a Ps4 or anything like that? I noticed that I have never seen anybody win at all Cedar Fair Parks and every where I see them. I play the stuffed animal claw machine at Krogers or Walmart all the time and those seem not as rigged as the ones with expensive prizes.

So what did you ride the most times this year?
kingsislandfan1972 replied to Miythandria's topic in Kings Island
The Beast, Diamonback, Racer, and Boo Blasters on Boo Hill. -
If Phantom Theater were to return to Kings Island, then Im sure that Kings Island would be twice as packed as opening day for the Banshee opening day earlier this year. I know of a lot of people who would be glad to see the Maestro return.

Rides Kings Island Should Have - Thread
kingsislandfan1972 replied to CoasterOhio's topic in Kings Island
A ferris wheel would be a great idea and would be an excellent additon to Coney Mall. -
Well as I've said before in recent posts, that I was taking my best friend to Kings Island, which I did. On Friday we arrived to Kings Island at around 6 suprised the parking lot wasnt packed. When we walked in the park there I looked at the interactive maps and noticed that wasnt any lines for any of the rides. I think the reason why that was because it was cold, and I mean really cold. But we really didnt seem to mind so we went straight for the Diamondback. Since it was my friends first time at an amusement park, I didnt know how he would react to it, suprisingly he took it really well and didnt close his eyes went we were at the top, which was good because I love going on high rides. As the the cart went down on the Diamondback, the wind just hit our face really fast. It was a really good ride since it was just us and two other people riding. After the ride he said he really liked the Diamondback and was really excited for the next ride. We went on The Beast, The Bat, The Racer, and a couple other flat rides. This was a great time to go because there was absoulty no lines. A couple hours later we were exiting Boo Blasters and we were about to go on it again, when we noticed something light up next to a bench. It was a phone, I told my friend that we should take it to security, but he told me to answer it, in case somebody was trying to call the phone and was looking for it in the park. I answerd the phone and a women answerd and said "Where are you at?" I replied "Over by Boo Blasters!" In seconds a women and security came up to me. I gave the women the phone and security asked us why we stole the phone. We were confused because we had no idea what we were talking about. They told me that a couple teenagers had stole a womens phone one by the name of John at the Candy Shoppe, and they thought we were them. We told them that we had just come out of Boo Blasters and had saw something light up in the dark, and when we realized it was a phone, were were going to take it to security. They seemed to believe us, but they us to identify ourselves, we didnt have ID's on us so we just showed them our FaceBooks. They told us sorry for the misunderstanding and they shook our hands and told us to look out for anybody suspicous. The security was nice and Im glad that the women got her cell phone back, some teenagers are heartless. I guess the teenagers got scared and threw thew phone somewhere so security couldnt track them down. The rest of our trip went well, we took the shuttle from the hotel to and from Kings Island. We ate PB & J sandwitches outside the park for lunch. On Saturday at the FestHaus I was glad to hear the return of the Shake Rattle and Roll, and the two new rides in Planet Snoopy. Also I was glad to hear that StarBucks was getting an expansion and was getting free WiFi. We went on so many rides, and played a little SkeeBall in the arcade too. We rode The Beast front seat (thats the first for me) and what a wonderful experience that was. We went on so many rides and walked around so much that we used the Massage Kegs in OktoberFest to make our feet feel better. It was the best time I had ever had at Kings Island, my friend said it was the best time he had ever had. On the last day, we were about to leave and I noticed that The Vortex was operating. It wasnt operating all weekend and I really wanted to ride it. So to end a perfect weekend, we rode The Vortex. As we left the park the workers by the exit said "See you next year!", and my response is indeed you will!

What is your favorite Water Ride At KI?
kingsislandfan1972 replied to mccarthysnerd's topic in KI Polls
The I love the location of WWC at Kings Island, because its so unique. If WWC was ever removed from Kings Island, then the name RiverTown would be pointless. I dont know what area that RFYLCB would be technically be located, so I guess that Diamindback would technically count as a Water Ride, hence the water. -
Nice report. Also thumbs up for Hanks Burrito shack, just the smells make my mouth water. We might eat there when we go to Kings Island tomorrow.

When people wear Cedar Point or other amusement parks shirts and sweatshirts to Kings Island.

Well, around the 2007-2009 era, when SpongeBob 3D was still playing at Kings Island I sat in the moving seats, after the workers checked our safety belts, the ride operator said over the intercom "Ok, once your ready, push the big yellow button below your seat." I was thinking what yellow button, considering I had been on SpongeBob many times before, I was a bit confused. But then the operator said "Just kidding, enjoy your ride." It was pretty funny because it confused a lot of people.
