familyguyfun1 Posted September 1, 2007 Posted September 1, 2007 Well a roller coaster is out of the question, then what type of flat ride are we going to get? And where? I have no clue but i think we are nearing the time for this "flat ride" to be reveled. This topic is alot like the new ride idea just the roller coaster is outa the question. Quote
TH13TEEN Posted September 1, 2007 Posted September 1, 2007 i don't know what we could get but i would like something like skyhawk at CP Quote
BoddaH1994 Posted September 1, 2007 Posted September 1, 2007 How is a roller coaster out of the question? Quote
familyguyfun1 Posted September 1, 2007 Author Posted September 1, 2007 a roller coaster is out of the question because canada's wonderland is getting one this next season. The copmany can't afforde to make any new roller coasters. If we got one it would be moved from some other park but we already got Firehawk. Quote
PKIVortex Posted September 1, 2007 Posted September 1, 2007 Just because CW is getting a coaster in 2008 doesn't mean anything. Cedar Fair opened Maverick, Renegade and moved X-Flight to Kings Island in 2007. So it's still possible but I doubt we will get a coaster in 2008. Quote
pkimike Posted September 1, 2007 Posted September 1, 2007 I still remember all the people who said KI wouldn't get anything last year. How did that prediction work out? I don't think KI will get a coaster either but to say a coaster is "out of the question" is a little strong. I would be very happy with a good flat and a new sit down restaurant. Maybe a slide for the waterpark. Quote
Cody Posted September 1, 2007 Posted September 1, 2007 We're not geting a rollercoaster nor a thrill ride, say hello to an add-on to BB. Quote
Vortex Posted September 1, 2007 Posted September 1, 2007 I can see a sit down restaurant next year and a water slide. I wish Kings Island would get a flat ride. Quote
westcoaster Posted September 1, 2007 Posted September 1, 2007 Sit down restraunt ? Where did that come from and an add on of Boomerang Bay already?? Quote
pkimike Posted September 1, 2007 Posted September 1, 2007 Sit down restraunt ? Where did that come from and an add on of Boomerang Bay already?? What do you mean where did that come from? KI severely needs a sit down restaurant. CF has been known to make restaurants the new additions for their parks. CW and CP to name a few. Quote
Cody Posted September 1, 2007 Posted September 1, 2007 Sit down restraunt ? Where did that come from and an add on of Boomerang Bay already?? Yep, their going to take out one of the slides and put something new in its place. Quote
coasterbruh Posted September 2, 2007 Posted September 2, 2007 I honestly dont see a sit down resturant working in an area of the park that has less hours than the rest of the park as well as a limited season...but thats just me. Quote
pkimike Posted September 2, 2007 Posted September 2, 2007 Sure it would. Your telling me a sportsbar with tv's would not work in international street. Quote

Maybe a slide for the waterpark. Had Cedar Fair not taken over, that WAS the plan under Paramount... Quote
pkimike Posted September 2, 2007 Posted September 2, 2007 What was the plan? No coaster. A sitdown restaurant? What? I don't understand what part of the post you are talking about. Quote
WooferBearATL Posted September 2, 2007 Posted September 2, 2007 I honestly dont see a sit down resturant working in an area of the park that has less hours than the rest of the park as well as a limited season...but thats just me. Yeah, because look at the locations that were sit down restaurants. (International Restaurant and Columbia Palace.) Both were extremely popular, always packed and made good to great money. Why would CF want to duplicate that? Quote
KIBeast Posted September 2, 2007 Posted September 2, 2007 He was referring to the coaster, not the restaurant. Paramount had no plans for a coaster coming to KI this season. CF changed those plans and transplanted X-Flight from Geauga Lake to KI becoming Firehawk. Quote
BoddaH1994 Posted September 2, 2007 Posted September 2, 2007 What was the plan? No coaster. A sitdown restaurant? What? I don't understand what part of the post you are talking about. They had plans to have shows for 2007, but not necessarily the ones we ended up having. There wasn't going to be a ride installment, however they were going to do the regular capital improvements.

The Interpreter Posted September 2, 2007 Posted September 2, 2007 Kings Island really, really, really needs a nice sit-down, full-service, table cloth type of restaurant. However, if any such a venue is going to have the same level of service, quality and pricing as food service has demonstrated this year, there really is no need to bother. . . Quote
Gordon Bombay Posted September 2, 2007 Posted September 2, 2007 I honestly dont see a sit down resturant working in an area of the park that has less hours than the rest of the park as well as a limited season...but thats just me. Yeah, because look at the locations that were sit down restaurants. (International Restaurant and Columbia Palace.) Both were extremely popular, always packed and made good to great money. Why would CF want to duplicate that? If CF does dupliate that, and I agree that they should, they need to duplicate the service those places used to give and not replicate the kind of food service you find now. Quote
pkimike Posted September 3, 2007 Posted September 3, 2007 I totally understand that under Paramount their was no plans for a coaster. My point was that people were saying there was no plans for anything new long after CF took over control of the park. Those predictions were proven wrong when we got the news about FH. The same types of things are being said again this year. Like I said before, I don't think KI will get a new coaster in 2008 either. Quote
familyguyfun1 Posted September 3, 2007 Author Posted September 3, 2007 As I was at the cardowins fan site i noticed that they have a wild mouse ride called the fly. And kings dominion has one also. So do you guyes think that KI could get a wild mouse next season?? Quote
Cody Posted September 3, 2007 Posted September 3, 2007 ^NO LOL Im telling you, we're probly going to get an add-on to the water park, just wait and see. Quote
welchce Posted September 3, 2007 Posted September 3, 2007 Well there's no apparent signs of construction around the park so I doubt there'd be any large coaster being installed. There could be a chance of getting something smaller like a wild mouse but nothing to brag about. So I feel I'd go along with the original post... i don't know what we could get but i would like something like skyhawk at CP I was going to say the exact same thing. It is an extremely fun ride and I feel it could go well with X-Base. With many else, I feel that KI needs at least one table service restaurant. The only thing I'm afraid of is what The Interpreter mentioned... However, if any such a venue is going to have the same level of service, quality and pricing as food service has demonstrated this year, there really is no need to bother. . . Quote
BoddaH1994 Posted September 3, 2007 Posted September 3, 2007 ^NO LOL Im telling you, we're probly going to get an add-on to the water park, just wait and see. That'd be my guess too. Quote
Guest TombraiderTy Posted September 3, 2007 Posted September 3, 2007 I'm guessing one of the slower slides in BB won't be returning for next year. Quote
Cody Posted September 3, 2007 Posted September 3, 2007 down under thunder needs to go :\ it would probly go if they removed a slide. edit:spelling oopys Quote
familyguyfun1 Posted September 3, 2007 Author Posted September 3, 2007 Thunder down under needs to go :\ it would probly go if they removed a slide. I thought it was down under thunder?? And isn't that the one with the 3 tube slides on it? Quote
TOPGUN1993 Posted September 3, 2007 Posted September 3, 2007 Down Under Thunder is the blue 4 slide body slide.....thats in the middle of the lazy river. Quote
