FUN FACT: The idea for The Attractions Group Podcast Pick Six segment was born while watching Pardon the Interruption, a sports talk show that airs weekdays on ESPN.

A lot of possibilities. I wouldn't mind seeing the kids' area being revamped to Looney Tunes and Action Zone rethemed to DC. Opens up a whole new line of merchandise opportunities.

Yes! I will send one to you.

On a recent podcast episode of Tower Topics, @boddah1994 and I talk about the value of the Prestige Pass. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/tower-topics/id1698426928?i=1000633063943

I have one of the parking signs. Huckleberry Hound.

I thought being located by the train depot and Millennium Force made for a nice setting for the Prestige Pass VIP area at Cedar Point. I enjoyed it, thought it was a nice set up. And it had really good, ice cold tap water, plenty of snacks, cords to recharge my phone.

@BoddaH1994 and I will be talking about the Prestige Pass in an upcoming episode of Tower Topics, which is a podcast about Kings Island.

Both are good parks that don't get talked about enough. Dorney Park will be debuting Iron Menace, which is one of the most anticipated new rides for 2024, and that for me would give it the edge if I had to choose one park or the other to visit next year. If you're going to drive nine hours, the drive is more interesting on the way to Dorney Park than Worlds of Fun. Plus, while you're in the area there is Six Flags Great Adventure, Hersheypark, and not too far away, Knoebel's Amusement Resort. I always try to plan my visits to Worlds of Fun when the Kansas City Royals are in town to give me something additional to do. Tickets are among the most affordable in Major League baseball.

On an upcoming episode of Tower Topics, a question was asked by a podcast listener about the possible return of Phantom Theater. If you have a Kings Island question, submit it here and it could be featured on an upcoming episode of Tower Topics.

Nice job!

The decision was made and announced July 27, 2012.

That's what was anticipated. Rides, however, are machines and because they're machines, throughout the industry they're all day-to-day.

Diamondback is a steel roller coaster. You can't paint a steel coaster when it's below a certain temperature which it is the majority of the winter and early spring months.

Coasterstock, not CoasterStock.

Blue Ice Cream debuted in 1982 as a tie-in to Huckleberry Hound and then became a natural tie-in with the Smurfs when they invaded Kings Island.

Sporting goods, hockey, baseball, football, theme parks... had to start with one.

Cool as the other side of the pillow!

Thanks for attending Coasterstock 2022. What was your favorite part?

And yet somehow, despite not one post here, impressions for Coasterstock 2022 content was in the millions. LOL

Its ridership? The Bat annually ranks among the top attractions in the park for rides given.

As noted on the park's website, White Water Canyon along with Soak City Water Park will open for the 2022 season May 28. A new map will be uploaded then.

The online store is located under Attractions & Things To Do.

I remember it well. I enjoyed it, riding it multiple times every year throughout its run at the park. It wasn't included with park admission. I remember it being $3.50 at one point. There was a good variety of animals, and you got an up close look at many of them. It was worth the cost to do it. I also experienced Kings Dominion's. The similarities between Kings Island's and Kings Dominion's were different.

A little over 6,350 days ago is when the last repainting project for the Eiffel Tower began.

The Lunch Basket served hot dogs, chili dogs, hamburgers, fries.
