Kings Island just confirmed three shows will return to this year's Haunt. Hot Blooded, Blood Drums, and Monster Rock will all make a return this year.

I use the the Cedar Point app the most. Usually because it's such a big park. They do a good job on wait times.

Hopefully a good amount of scares!

The tunnel either added lights after the drop or just got replaced. All arms were working.

Didn't think of that. That would make sense for the "They're".

Just saw a new Cedar Point Wanted/Reward poster up at the park.

I honestly haven't had a problem with food service but if they just focused on food section in terms of quality (Like the quality at the smokehouse) they would make a lot of people happy. Then maybe focus on the service as people mention.

^ More importantly than it being used... I really like the entrance and and the queue.

That's a good location. I was thinking the same idea of a Wild Mouse. I was thinking about fitting it in the Oktoberfest section.

I don't think I've ever seen somebody jump the queue gate while a train was leaving the station. Causing operations to stop. That happened around 9:55 tonight at Diamondback. All I know is that kid had a nice conversation with security.

I know. It tastes different than going to an actual store outside of KI. It tastes good, but I think going to an actual location outside tastes way better. Not sure if it because the food ingredients isn't as fresh in KI or what (due to shipping it there), but yeah tastes a bit different at KI. I too, highly recommend the Smokehouse. The quality and taste is very good all three times I've ate there.

They are on the left. One is the anti-rollback piece. Edit: Just can't work a laptop apparently.

Shed Spoiler:

I think you are going to be in for a rude awakening when you take a look at the prices for Disney passes and regular admission tickets. You're going to need more than that 600.

I did my first ever trip to Holliday World yesterday, and I absolutely loved it. The crowds were low, and it was cloudy (but very humid) for the whole day. I think that would have to be due to the rain storms earlier. We got there around 2:30 and stayed til about 8:30. It absolutely wore me out. I can understand why you call it Mt. Thunderbird, but I didn't mind it. The park is super clean, has great theming, and the food is awesome. I got in a good amount of rides in that time: The Raven: 3 Thunderbird: 4 The Voyage: 4 The Legend: 3 I thought every ride there was fantastic. The Voyage was an amazing ride, and really knocked the sails out of me (no pun intended). Very thrown off by that drop followed immediately by another drop. Thunderbird's launch really threw me off guard. I think I may like it more than Gatekeeper. I think the biggest suprise for me would be Gobbler Getaway. I really enjoyed that ride, and rode it more than once.

I was denied a ride on Wicked Twister (only coaster I've had a problem with) and have never ridden it. I don't have any problems on TTD or MF. I guess it's the upper body for me. I really didn't have a chance to get settled in my seat or attempt the belt more than once before they told me I couldn't ride. Kinda felt rushed.

^ Now that you say that, I am pretty sure it was in rain mode, because I remember Maverick was running with exactly four trains. Thanks for filling me in on that info. Didn't know that's why they did that.

I think I've seen the Cedar Creek Mine Ride do that before. I do know for certain that Cedar Point likes taking trains off the tracks with low crowds. The last day I went up there in late May they had Millennium Force only running with one train. Which was after a rain storm rolled by.

Crowd size and amount of workers will have an impact.

I've ridden it twice this year in the middle. The second time was rougher than the first time I rode it this year.

Kings Island just posted a 360° POV of Mystic Timbers. Check it out:

It always seems to happen a lot in the WindSeeker line. People not going all the way down to get a number. I always mention this idea to fix it: Add netting between the queue to get the number and the two lines you go into once you received a seat number. All they have to do is put netting in the holes of the hand rails. This will stop people from going underneath to get to the two lines with assigned numbers. Also this will give people a message of "You can't cut here, keep following the path". Also a sign may help too.

Went to the park around 7 today to get some rides in and when riding the train I saw a train conductor having some fun. I believe he was fishing a chicken, and on the way back he was playing the banjo on one of the chairs. Always great to see this, and makes me wish they would add some actors/people or props along the train to give it something new. Screenshot is from the live stream I did on my Twitter. You can find and watch the moment here (can see the guy starting at 2:58):

At Cedar Point today (and yesterday). Currently in the shelter area of Maverick's queue line waiting on this rain storm to pass. We stayed at a Cottage last night which was very fun especially when it was super close to the construction happening in the old Mean Streak area. Also had this view of Mean Streak's old lift in the hot tub area .
