um, WOW!

Its been posted on here before, but, its still a great watch. I've never done psychadelic drugs before, but between the bright colors and the music, I feel like I'm on them when I watch it.

That was cool. Just wish the quality was better. Enchanted voyage was one of my favorites.

With the park 35 years old now, I've wondered if an area of the park called something like "Old Kings Island" would go over. Have a cafe or something (a mild re-theme of Festhaus?) with old memoriabilia in it, historical signs, etc. Maybe bring back a new version of an original small flat ride. I think Oktoberfest would make a great area.

Now that brought back memories.

I bet it would...nostalgia always does well. The food would be better, thats for sure.

Looks like it was June 17, 1976

High Temperature that day was 82 degrees, winds of 4 mph...

Wow, is it the offseason, or what....

Wow that was cool to see how much the park has grown and how much Kings Island was trying to mix in the thrills and family fun.

It was all about theming. When you were in Rivertown, you really were in Rivertown. When you were in Oktoberfest, there really was a German Theme. Etc, Etc, Etc.

Dont worry KIFan we are almost there to that Holy Grail of all days opening day.

Kings Island with a Tea Cups Ride? Say it ain't so!

I have trouble adjusting to.

That old footage was great. I have a question.....was that the Bavarian Beetle that they were riding (looked kind of like a wild mouse ride)?

The Bat footage was great too. It would swing so far out, that was such a great ride.....when it was working.

Thanks for sharing! I didn't know that youtube had that stuff.

If you mean around 4:15 into the video, yes, that is Bavarian Beetle! It was a Galaxi coaster...and was known as Galaxi at Coney Island of Ohio, from whence it came.

I finally had a chance to see it...and in motion!

Thanks!

What would you think if I sang out of tune

Would you stand up and walk out on me?

Lend me your ears and I'll sing you a song

And I'll try not to sing out of key

Did anyone else think of the Wonder Years when they saw this?

^That was the first thing I thought of when I first saw this video. Man, that was a great tv show...

Ha, thanks Kawana!

What's the first ride in the video?

Winnie Witches Cauldrons.... Similar to a Tea Cup ride

I actually meant the roller coaster...must have been Beastie,er, Scooby Doo...I actually have a picture of me in the witch's cauldren...I'll have to dig it up...Thanks for the pic TG!
