And supposedly they have cut way back on scareactors this year. That, with the no boo necklaces, has ruined this event. Best Haunt indeed lol. At this point, they need to just do Tricks n Treats, an Oktoberfest for the adults and close at 7pm.
-
Haunt Saturdays are typically the busiest days the park has. Of course, it's weather dependent. But if the crowds are high and the weather is good, a Fast Lane would be advisable but will likely have surge pricing.
-
Here is my perspective: staff are pressed for time. But there should be a process to cull damaged items to either fix or do away with. With this issue, given the subject, they should have taken the 5-10 minutes to fix it The motive will be clear next weekend. If it's not fixed after this uproar, it will speak volumes to the theory of the park intentionally did this. If it's removed it still could be interpreted many ways. If it's fixed, that will allay many of these concerns about ki screwing Don Helbig.

Some would say it's not a woodie, but a hybrid .

KI Questions that keep you up at night
BeeastFarmer replied to SonofBaconator's topic in Kings Island
It's 441 and I'm wondering why they put blacktop around the Eiffel Tower in the 2019 renovation instead of pavers -
Go thru Canada. Much cheaper, at least it has been for me.

Lightning Rod at Dollywood Update

When I rode LR, the launch didn't really feel like a launch. It kind of felt like a slower Millennium Force. -
The junkyard coaster needs a complete redo or tear out. Get rid of the shipping containers, junk cars, billboards, rip-rap. I don't think the hardware needs anything, maybe harken back to the roots of Les Taxis or Ohio Overland Livery and put new fiberglass shells on the train and take a wild ride in a antique auto. But the area is ugly as is while it's a decent ride. Landscape landscape landscape!

They are the ones that were overbooked at St. Michelle.

Well, we have been bamboozled yet again by the silly poll and no boo necklaces!
-
Just a rumor but it makes sense with the way Cedar Fair has cut the budget this year...lots less scareactors this year are going to be employed. So the event is continuing to spiral downhill IMHO. At this point, just have Oktoberfest weekends and put lederhosen on the employees and sell brats and let haunt die it's miserable death.

Expanding the Graveyard underneath Banshee.

When I ride Banshee, besides the zero g stall, I'm focusing on not throwing up. -

Would most riders even see gravestones back there? -
Typically, they do with a fee. However, if it was used in 2022 for the "get the rest of '22 free with a 2023 pass" promo, they won't.

Toboggan in front of WindSeeker. Ice carvers in the junkyard plaza. But you loose the chicken Shack by closing Action Zone.

Better watch out, your idea could be presented on John Mattress's segment, "Don't Waste Your Money!"

KI Questions that keep you up at night
BeeastFarmer replied to SonofBaconator's topic in Kings Island
I think, if I remember correctly, that Jeff Gramke was asked this at Coasterstock and he said it was happenstance. Could be wrong though, there was so much in depth information that day. Great question, I wondered that for years. -
I know I'm usually critical of current KI comms, but I do give due credit. Fun Fact Friday is a great thing they are doing. The music is catchy, the facts are interesting (in spite of some errors) and it's engaging. I like that they end with something to the affect of " see you next week!" I do find that I look forward to seeing it. I hope they continue this and other campaigns like it.

KI Questions that keep you up at night
BeeastFarmer replied to SonofBaconator's topic in Kings Island
It's 1242 and I wonder why people vote for an event before it starts. And if people vote for ki, specifically, as a top rated park for haunt, when the event crumbles and decays each year, what motivation does corporate have to fund it? -

It's 1032 am and I'm not asleep... Why doesn't the park keep The Royal Fountain clean from all the goose poop? -
Cedar Fair in the 2030s?
BeeastFarmer replied to SonofBaconator's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
If a woodie is relocated, do they just take the plc, chain, sprockets, etc and build new structure with the original blueprints? Ok do they literally move the bents and track? I know there have been relocation of Woodies but I never considered the process.
