  1. Toboggan in front of WindSeeker. Ice carvers in the junkyard plaza. But you loose the chicken Shack by closing Action Zone.
  2. Snowflake Lake presented by Kroger and Hershey. Halloween Haunt presented by Spirit Halloween.
  3. Better watch out, your idea could be presented on John Mattress's segment, "Don't Waste Your Money!"
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. 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?
  7. Hilda Bovine is too classy for such a thing as that!
  8. It's 1032 am and I'm not asleep... Why doesn't the park keep The Royal Fountain clean from all the goose poop?
  9. 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.
  10. Today's Friday fun fact was focused on the Brady Bunch!
  11. I say "Diamond" you say "back!" @SonofBaconator says "Cedar" @disco2000 says "Fair!"
  12. If my name was The Great Garbanzo, I could say that my most famous line is " I risk my life for your love!" Sorry, couldn't resist that opportunity to bring in some PTE!
  13. I'd rather hear the perspective on using cranes at Cedar Point.
  14. But why? If anything, remove the vinyl advertisements, add appropriate European accents (shingles) and bring the flags back. Put in pavers, renovate or remove the ticket building and relandscape the berms. Oh, and add the ornate lamps back. Update to the past, not to a post modern wasteland that's not fitting to Kings Island.
  15. I think redundant because by nature, people want to share ideas. So any thread will have debate . If you don't agree, fight me. See what I did there LOL
  16. It's such a Wonderful World of Fun! That entrance is so key to that!
  17. Wouldn’t a simple pedestrian overpass from the parking lot be a better option? It could arguably move people a lot quicker than the gondola could. @Hawaiian Coasters 325...I like the thought, but don't think it's practical. In a dream world where ki reacquires the land across the freeway, lots of things could happen over there. @MisterSG1... I think a pedestrian bridge would be a stretch because of the distance required. With height requirements, the landing would need to stretch further out. People would not want to have to walk that far and back. For safety and capacity, I think a monorail would be a solution.
  18. On a positive note...I do enjoy the Friday Fun Fact shorts they have been doing. (except when there are factual errors)
  19. That would look terrible...distract from the beauty of the Eiffel Tower and the Grand Carousel. Plus it would be loud with it being right beside the International Showplace. It would be the equivalent of a new junkyard coaster.
  20. This is where reading comprehension and critical thinking are needed by you. I have an example of two professional experts that I would listen to and follow the advice given. I went on to mention that people here, who have industry experience and expertise have stated sound, logical examples to you. You choose not to agree. That is fine, but you have your mind made up and have stubbornly clung to it I agree that this has gone way off topic. I'd suggest starting a new thread about the crane if you want more attention.
  21. If my doctor tells me that it would be a good idea to do xyz...then I do it. It may be a hunch, or based on evidence-based peer-reviewed practice. If my HVAC guy says " I have had a lot of experience with a Goodman compressor, I think yours has about 2 years left. Let's nurse it through and save some money for a replacement in the meantime." If someone who has industry experience, and PR/marketing experience, as the ones you tend to try to rile up, I listen to them and apply common sense. You seem to want intangible numbers. Sometimes, things in this industry are grey, not black and white. Since you evidently do not patronize Kings Island, and appear to not have industry experience or PR/marketing experience, I don't think you are going to be satisfied with anything anyone says here.
  22. Just like Maestro, you've been bamboozled yet again!
  23. Yes, I saw that! I'm extremely bummed that I wasn't able to go on Wednesday ( I was in the hospital), and I can not make it to the weekend shows because of work. I'm hoping they give an encore season!
  24. Anyone here able to see PTE for its last shows today? If so, any clue about if they will disappear into the mist or won't be seen again til next summer?
