IndyGuy4KI Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 Heard yesterday that the train got stuck at the top of the loop on Son of Beast and someone fell out. That was the reason they removed the loop. Had to straighten that person out real quick! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Libby Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 That someone jumped off the Eiffel Tower and that every morning you can see the blood. That The Racer is haunted. That Kings Island was built over a graveyard. Those fools. LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iChase Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 Kings Island wasn't built over a graveyard, but it does have one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dvo Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 Yesterday I heard a few good ones. A guy talking about Diamondback said "The hill actually went under itself!" I seriously wonder what these people are seeing when they're standing near the hill. And then in line for Vortex... "We have to sit in the back cause it's the fastest!" Seriously? It moves faster than the rest of the train that's pulling it, thus passing it? *smacking forehead* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jak0999 Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 My mom was telling me (not really a rumor i supose) that her and my older brother went to ride The Racer but he was too short, and when they walked out of line, they heard a lot of screams. My mom looked up and The Racer was stuck at the top of the first hill and they were walking people down the track. I guess it was good my brother is short ^.^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skaterboy22101 Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 I herd a couple good ones yesterday, like Diamondback has 6 inversions. Oh and I cant forget this, Diamondsnake was built by Beemer & Marlboro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gabe Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 The best rumor I heard was when I worked at Disney on the College Program. Durinf orientation a not-so-bright girl asked what happens to the castle during a hurricane? she said she'd heard it was not made to withstand heavy winds. The orientation director said to her "If we get a hurricane while you're here, meet me at the castle so we can gein dismantling it piece by piece!" everyone in the group got a good laugh and needless to say the girl was more than a little embarassed!

I'll check the KI Timeline on here. Grad night. Widely disseminated and known information. And just because something IS on the internet, doesn't necessarily make it true.

TheCryptRaider Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 No, but if somebody died on the Eiffel Tower don't you think the news would record it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 It did. As has been discussed here again and again and again... Newspapers of the day were not on the Internet. The worldwide web did not even exist as such. From this very website: 1983 –...On May 13 - A teenager was killed after falling from the Eiffel Tower. He was in a restricted area when he fell..,...

TheCryptRaider Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 That's scary. When I eventually try to get a job at KI I don't want to work the Tower or WWC (Woody). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin_M17 Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 There's no way I could work at KI. It would making coming to the park (Even on days when i'm off) seem too much like work rather than the fun place it's supposed to be. Plus I don't think I could handle sending people off on my favorite rides while I can't ride them myself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flightoffear1996 Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 I coudl I like see the seeing the smilies on others faces. Do you not think that just because most of us on this site website are well educated about theme parks while others are not doesn't mean they are idots. Sometimes we say idotiac things at parks to try and scare the other person we are riding with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrill_Biscuit Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Like telling n00bs that: 1. There's a huge drop at the end of the last AE tunnel... 2. That the temple dude is going to pour water on everybody... 3. That that huge lift hill is part of this ride (from AE, looking at SOB)... 4. That Viking Fury is going to flip like Berzerker 5. They should brace for the elevator 'drop' from the Eiffel Tower... ...etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flightoffear1996 Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 I find in funny when little kids ask what were to happen if the cables broken while people are boarding the elevator and thier parents tell them to shush up. I mean honsetly what do you think would happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 The e-brakes would activate and the elevator would come to a stop? Terpy, who has had this happen once (albeit the car was in motion at the time..) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jak0999 Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 OK well this rumor is NOT funny. But some girl at my school told me Kings Island was going to tear down SOB because one day 2 trains in the very back flew off the track, and they died. It came out like this "DUDE YO MAN THEYS GONNA TEAR DOWN THE SON OF DA BEAST CAUSE SOME GUYS ROCKED THE TRAIN SO HARD THE BACK 2 TRAINS FELL OFF THE TRACK AND THEY DIED!!!!!1!!!!" NOW. I told her that it would have been all over the news, and that i would probably go an email from Kings Island releasing something about it. i get SO mad when people make stuff up and tell me. (I consider myself a pretty big Kings Island fanatic.) Anyone even care to even DIGNIFY this rumor by responding? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrill_Biscuit Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 Actually, it is pretty funny, so you're not off-topic. Granted, it would be pretty sad if all three trains were running on SOB at the same time, and two whole trains flew off the track and died. The SOB trains do have some anthropomorphic character to them, but to have two of them fly off and die would be tragic. Can anyone really rock a train? Dear Heavens, I love this site!

The Interpreter Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 Old Terpy (and another poster here) was once accused of rocking a train on what was then Twisted Sisters at Kentucky Kingdom. Some fools had actually pelted the train (and the riders aboard) with pebbles. Not good. Not at all good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
