Accident on Alton Towers Smiler
Imperial79 replied to Bennett's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
Wow is right! If it is true they def should have listened to him. -
Just read on Screamscrape that T3 is pushed back again and the June 6th opening now says 'Opening Soon'. Here's the link. http://www.screamscape.com/html/kentucky_kingdom.htm

Accident on Alton Towers Smiler
Imperial79 replied to Bennett's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
That is terrible. Hope and praying for everyone involved for healing. -
When you start seeing Kings Island and Cedar Point card stands in the stores near the entrances.
-
That's cool. I made a couple videos of the event too. Hope you like!
-
If it was the park, what's to gain by confusing visitors and making them think KK opened earlier then what it actually was? Only thing I can think of is to say they was open way before the other parks around the area... That just confuses people for next year possibly to think they will be open earlier then the other parks, when none if that is true... I was thinking it was the reporter that got it wrong, but now I don't know.
-
Wow, 30 years is a long time! Hope you both have a great time!
-
That first sentence is jaw dropping! I can't believe they actually wrote that. 'Kentucky Kingdom is a wonderful success story' uhh...

Hey magenta I saw you at Coasterstock! A few times! But you looked busy, I'll say hi next time if your not busy. I was in a light blue shirt white shorts with black stripes. It was a good event, congrats on winning.

Yes, that was Ryan, KIC Media Director, and master-glider-snapper. Did you see the last ride before the park closed? 7 KIC members and quite a few were snapping....fun time! I stayed at the Gliders till about 9:45. Then walked around some more and took my last video of Coasterstock near Diamondback splashing down. Yes it was great, everyone was chanting for Ryan to stay on! I was on the opposite side of the entrance taking a video of the ERT and I caught a few people snapping before I left Woodstock Gliders.
-
Was Ryan the guy in the red shirt that snapped them really good and everyone was cheering for him? And he posts here? He's very good at it!!! It was great riding them with hardly any wait at all! I have some practicing to do!
-
Cool. Looks a little cloudy right now but I think we are ok. The lines aren't as long as yesterday. In line at WindSeeker now. And before that Shake Rattle & Roll. I like the new lights on it. Edit: I've seen 3 people snapping on the Woodstock Gliders.
-
Cool. I really liked the Gliders. I got it really high but I didn't get it to snap. It was my first time on a scooters ride so I think with some more practice I'll be able to snap I hope. Edit: I went pass The Monster a hour ago and it's cars (if that's what they are called) have been removed.
-
I'm here. I didn't get to go to the Banshee event, but it looks like a pretty busy day at the park.
-
Gees, and this is only a small portion of the interview. The whole interviews out on Friday. To bad I'm not a subscriber. Edit: I just was going through the other past pages dealing with Kentucky Kingdom and noticed this one. http://m.bizjournals.com/louisville/print-edition/2015/04/17/partners-are-happy-with-the-ball-in-hart-s-hands.html "Hart believes that entrepreneurial nimbleness gives him a competitive advantage over parks with more corporate bureaucracy, which helps, for example, when an opportunity arises to acquire a major ride or attraction." Who needs corporate bureaucracy when you can have a park that's only open because of taxpayers?
-
I did get 3 emails but it didn't any anything to do with what time to be at the park. It was about them not seeing the other person I bought the ticket for, I sent them the info then a few days later they sent another talking about it again, and within 10 minutes sent another saying everything was okay and not to worry they found the info.
-
In the second video, isn't that what blue number 1 car is doing? It looks like he gets a few good snaps in. Just from watching these new ones and the new ones Cedar Point got last year, I like ours better, they def slow down a lot faster then Cedar Points flyers.

Kennywood: Large Fight
Imperial79 replied to The Interpreter's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
I saw someone on their Facebook page post a picture of Cedar Point, yeah okay but this is not the same thing like what happened at Cedar Point... -
An Open Letter to Kennywood
Imperial79 replied to TombRaiderFTW's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
Yeah me too. That is a very nice and sad story. That's the main thing people will remember about you is how you made them feel. -
Yeah it looks really nice!
-
Dang. I could tell in the (I can't believe we we're ready last year) interview they had, that that's what he was hinting at for this year. Turns out it was true. I wonder are they going to be ready next year? I doubt it from the way it's going.
-
They have to start somewhere! That's at least 25 visitors, now just 649,975 left to go!
