Hey! Question I was stalking the Banshee web cam and I noticed that the slingshot ball didn't look like it was there. The supports the cables were attached to are there but it doesn't look like the ball its self is there. Also doesn't look like the ticket booth is there either. So is it or did they take it out and I missed something? Or is it still there and the webcam looks funny lol Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Cool! Thanks for explaining! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I second this! Lol Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

The Starbucks looks really nice! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I love darker colors for steel coasters over brighter colors. I agree I think it makes them more daunting and yes the night rides are awesome because (for me) the tracks harder to see so it's almost like it not there Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'm really interested in the Cirque show! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The way I read this is that you could wear a fanny pack on them and it be ok! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I never got to ride it but the way people talk about I wish it was back so I could experience it!!!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I remember riding it when I was little, but thanks to CoasterBob on YouTube I can relive it every day. Oh cool! I'll have to go check it out!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Everyone is so excited for opening day.... I'm just here like I wish it was May! Thanks to school that's the first time I can go....since I work weekends...

I love Son of Beast with the loop!! I never rode King Cobra but I really want to and I sadly didn't get to experience Phantom Theater - but I hear many people praise it and want it back!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

From what I remember (other member feel free to add to my experience or correct me if I'm wrong) the original Tomb Raider: the Ride had this big intro and short film also you couldn't see the ride from the room with the short film and when it was tomb raider the ride did many flips and spins and had a plot - a story - I myself felt like through the ride I was moving to different part in different rooms even though the ride what just going up down and around However the Crypt took away the intro/short film it took away the secrecy (you could see the ride operate while waiting) and it did much less movement (flips/spin) than it did when it was Tomb Raider. It was a great ride as Tomb Raider but as the Crypt it became lackluster and it lost its touch Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I did go back in and add The Bat, original run

I didn't put that one in there because I know they somewhat bright it back but good choice! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

If you had the power to bring back ONE ride from Kings Island years past, which ride would you bring back? The years in ( ) are the years when the ride listed was operational at Kings Island **I have opted out of using ride from previous years that were in Nickelodeon Land / Hanna-Barbera Land (another poll for another time). In the poll, I have listed Son of Beast with the loop and without the loop as two options becasue I rode it both ways and felt that it changed the ride experience. Also, I have listed Tomb Raider and The Crypt seperatly becasuse the difference in the two ride experience was very different. My choice would have to be King Cobra and I know some maybe curious why I chose that one - Because I never rode it (granted I didn't ride alot of these) but that one intreges me the most becuase my dad has talked about riding it several times and that has always peaked my interest to have the experence. My second choice would be Phantom Theater, because Boo Blaster is lack luster and needs some love. I am curious to see how everyone feels, so VOTE!! (And let me know if I missed any that was you want back.)

Yeah that I know, I just meant like I'd have to get a locker for it anyone at Firehawk and Banshee cause of the cup so I was trying to decide on wearing a fanny pack or not but I didn't want to have to take it off like a backpack (except on Firehawk and Banshee) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Just to make sure I'm getting this correct (just to help my decisions) if I take a fanny pack etc. I'll really only have to take it off on Banshee/Firehawk... I think I can deal with that if this is the case. We have one of the seasonal drink cups (I get dehydrated easily (thank medicine...) so we would have to get a locker leave them with someone regardless of pocket or what have you. But again thanks for all the answer and opinions they have been very helpful in trying to decide what to do! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Or would it be less than one day left, since as the day would go on it would be less that 24 hours... so like .8 of a day left or .5 of a day left lol

I agree, I loved the backwards train! But I am still happy to just be riding a coaster lol

I have found my self doing this more and more recently as I am planning my first trip of the season!

I really like the refillable cups!! I bought mine on line this year to save $5, but the first time I go all my refills are free and everytime after that all season long my refills are only 99 cents!! The cups are well sized and worth it for the price espically if you are a frequent visitor of KI.

Question up for debate: Do you miss the backwards Racer train? Or do you prefer to have both trains going forwards? I loved the backwards racer myself, but i am interested in what others think! Also, anyone know whay they turned both trains forwards?

I think the color of the ride shoudl match up well with the concept of the coaster. But overall I prefer to see a mix of cool colors on coaster I find it more appealing to my eyes.

Yeah lol it was just a thought. But again thanks for all the tips and answers!! They are very helpful
