Diamondback FOF Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 First of all, I doubt you got stuck on top of Dimaondback's lift hill. Secondly, taking pictures while on a ride is strictly prohibited at Kings Island. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Creed Bratton Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 There is a "red boat" to the right of The Beast's MCBR. Hey, it was to the left and it is not like I made it up, there is something there, looked like a boat as I did not get a good look. Hence the reason for the topic to help explain what I saw! there used to be a boat type ride from what I understand of this Kings Island Map in like '72 or so. You think that could be a boat from that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kings Island's (and Kings Dominion's) Eiffel Tower is only 1/3 scale. The US one that's half scale is in Las Vegas at Paris casino. Perhaps they did some magic to make both it and the one in Paris duplicates adding up to what was once the full scale Eiffel geegaw in Paris, France!

If I'm not mistaken, isn't there also a restaraunt on the low platform of the one in Vegas along with the one in Paris. Also, was the one at the Paris Casino built by Intamin?

screamingnight Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Did everyone know that Flight Deck, Son of Beast, Drop Tower, and Invetigo were all taken down so that Diamondback could be built? I am dead serious when I say someone told me this. I am NOT joking around. I don't know if this girl was that stupid thought Diamondback was really THAT big.

dragsterfan420 Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 The funniest rumors I've heard from KI are: Last year some guy saw all the track next to Firehawk that was for DB, and said that Firehawk was simply being re-tracked. Another one is from this year that a guy said Diamondback's track is from King Cobra, hence the snake theme and also that Cedar Fair is going to take out Vortex, The Beast, and Son of Beast.

Keyhole_Scooby Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Once in line for FoF me and Gnarkiller heard some people saying that FoF flew off the tracks once and that no body knew about them.... I wander where people think of this stuff..? Lol, I have no idea... I was in line for SoB during Halloween Haunt and some guy was talking about how a deer was gonna jump out and hit him while riding SoB.... I truly hate stupid people. on the diabetes walk a few year back (a few of you may remember this one) a deer was trapped in the fence with us walking going crazy trying to get out back by beast. It was pretty freaky so i could see where a deer rumor could spur from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
