trueTEXAN1990 Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 settle down mikey. "Experience Venting" is present on this board quite a bit. But honestly, I agree with Boddha- if the employees were that bad, you should have reported it right away. Anytime the majority of your staff is 18 and under that is going to happen. I don't know if CF has done this, but hopefully they have done away with the Paramount philosophy of giving Supervisor positions to minors. um well bc im a minor and a supervisor i can say that they havnt and i kno of atleast four other minor supervisors in my area!!

Browntggrr Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 I am overjoyed that Paramount is FINALLY leaving KI. Good Ridance! Beast1979 What do you mean by finally? The park was sold last July. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
italianchef Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 I don't miss Paramount at all. But I strongly feel that CF must lower the cost of food and beverages or the Kings Island parking lot will unofficially become "Tailgate Central". As a patron, I do appreciate the number and quality of shows, the new seatbelts, and the enhanced cleanliness of the park. But the augmented price of the already high food and drinks has been a business problem for the park and a disappointment for me, too. Hopefully, CF will learn from its marketing research that the pricing structure needs to be altered to enhance the profitability of the park and guest satisfaction simultaneously.

Browntggrr Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 ^ I have never been a pro-Paramount person, but, they did not "ruien" (dude, get spell check) the park. They certainly took the park in a different direction from the previous owner, and sure, you can question many of their decisions, but they did not hurt the park. And Beast1979, do you remember the pre-Paramount years? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

derek9312 Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 Well just think in the last 3 years of thier ownership, Paramount put in Boomerang Bay to restore Waterworks in '04 then put in Italian Job in '05 then restored Hanna Barbara Land to make Nick Universe in '06. IMO Cedar Fair has done an excellent job on cleaning the park and such but at least when we had Paramount as an owner they put in something new every year and we didnt have an owner that is in debt badly and we had to pay for it with higher prices everywhere around the park. Cedar Fair is in debt horribly and now we dont even know if we will get anything new anywhere around the park and a single visit can cost over $25 easily per person.

Gordon Bombay Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 Firehawk may have been moved from another park but its a fantastic ride! Keep in mind that a lot of KI's original rides were moved from Coney Island. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Browntggrr Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 Cedar Fair is junk city ride wise for Kings Island all previous owners gave us new RIDES!!! However Cedar Fair always said this was a gem of all there parks good things will happen: Cedar Fair has had one full year to install new rides, and since the one ride that was put in happened to be from another park, a coaster no less, you are calling CF "junk city ride wise". Wow. Exactly what did you expect for 2007 when CF purchased the park in July of '06? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
