pkifreakhogg Posted March 20, 2008 Posted March 20, 2008 Well as you all know King's Island will be open in exactly a month. Start counting down boys and girls. This time in a month, we will be riding. Quote
Thrill_Biscuit Posted March 20, 2008 Posted March 20, 2008 ...and eating! Don't forget eating! Mmmmmmmmmmm PotatoWorks! Quote
pkifreakhogg Posted March 20, 2008 Author Posted March 20, 2008 I forgot all about the eating. Pizza Quote
Jasper Posted March 20, 2008 Posted March 20, 2008 I can sense it in the air i cannot wait. 1 MONTH!! Quote
Beast1979 Posted March 20, 2008 Posted March 20, 2008 Ahh, Kings Island. The Offseason, which at the same time seems to have laged on, seems tohave flashed by. The Rides, The Screams, (The Food )....Memories.... Quote
flightoffear1996 Posted March 20, 2008 Posted March 20, 2008 Can't wait to get back into the park and waste all that countless time standing in lines. Quote
pkifreakhogg Posted March 20, 2008 Author Posted March 20, 2008 What will you guys ride first? Me it will be The Beast or Firehawk. I can smell the food in the air already. Quote
Thrill_Biscuit Posted March 20, 2008 Posted March 20, 2008 Vortex. Gotta get loopy right off The Bat. Then Beast. Quote
bparrott03 Posted March 20, 2008 Posted March 20, 2008 I'm really excited about cinnabon... lol... Quote
TOPGUN1993 Posted March 20, 2008 Posted March 20, 2008 What will you guys ride first? Me it will be The Beast or Firehawk. I can smell the food in the air already. None other than Adventure Express Quote
iChase Posted March 21, 2008 Posted March 21, 2008 I'm really excited about cinnabon... lol... Seconded! Quote
Beast1979 Posted March 21, 2008 Posted March 21, 2008 The Beast or Racer, haven't decided. One thing's for sure, second is Firehawk Quote
Vortex Posted March 21, 2008 Posted March 21, 2008 Does anyone know if SOB will open with the park this year? Quote
Beast1979 Posted March 21, 2008 Posted March 21, 2008 ^i'd assume so, since it had very little downtime after it reopened Quote
KIfan73 Posted March 21, 2008 Posted March 21, 2008 I've thought about starting the day in an unorthodox way by riding Viking Fury first thing. How about this, do you think I could eat a Cinnabon while riding Viking Fury? Quote
Beast1979 Posted March 21, 2008 Posted March 21, 2008 I wouldn't Try it, giving my last experiences on Viking Fury Quote
italianchef Posted March 21, 2008 Posted March 21, 2008 Since Opening Day is on a Sunday, I'll be there with my family assuming the weather is good and no one is ill. Quote
Guest faceoff Posted March 21, 2008 Posted March 21, 2008 I have been saving all off season for the 2008 amusement park trips. My second job provided me with $300 in tips in one month and all will be going to amusement park trips. Plus saving money from my first job and regular pay from second job, i am good to go. I will be riding Son of Beast first. If not open right away-i will ride racer first and then Vortex and then beast. I have been staring at my hotel confirmation(trying to make the time go faster). I am also coming back the first weekend of may. It has been a verrrrrrrrrrrry lonnnnnnnnnnnnnng off season. Quote
Purplehaze Posted March 21, 2008 Posted March 21, 2008 I just want to walk thru the front gates and I will be happy! Quote
dare-to-fly Posted March 26, 2008 Posted March 26, 2008 Well as you all know King's Island will be open in exactly a month. Start counting down boys and girls. This time in a month, we will be riding. Start? I've been counting down the days to opening since closing day. Granted, there was an adjustment for the fact that it's opening on Sun. rather than Sat. but I've had the countdown up since then. First ride of the day has got to be The Beast. Quote
Browntggrr Posted March 26, 2008 Posted March 26, 2008 It has been a verrrrrrrrrrrry lonnnnnnnnnnnnnng off season. I was thinking the same thing. But come next year, it will feel even longer due to the anticipation of the rumored 2009 coaster. Quote
Tuskin Posted March 26, 2008 Posted March 26, 2008 I'm really excited about cinnabon... lol... Ill third that Im going to Flight of Fear first then hit Firehawk Quote

BoddaH1994 Posted March 26, 2008 Posted March 26, 2008 Word to the wise: Get there early! I remember last year when they did a semi-late opening and the weather was nice, the line to get into the parking lot backed up to Western Row! I think I'm going to get there at like 9:00 on the 20th. Quote
Gordon Bombay Posted March 26, 2008 Posted March 26, 2008 Ryan, for those of us attending by helicopter, where does the helicopter land? Thanks, my pilot wants to know. Quote
BoddaH1994 Posted March 26, 2008 Posted March 26, 2008 They removed the helipad from the X-Base over a year ago. I'd recommend landing in Boomerang Bay since it doesn't open until late May. Quote
The Interpreter Posted March 26, 2008 Posted March 26, 2008 And if you do so without prior permission from the park, expect to spend a long time thereafter being housed in a facility.....especially these days. Think about it...what kind of person is apt to land a helicopter unannounced in a theme park on opening day. I would hope that ALL available security of every stripe would QUICKLY and forcefully respond. Quote
Beast1979 Posted March 26, 2008 Posted March 26, 2008 It has been a verrrrrrrrrrrry lonnnnnnnnnnnnnng off season. I was thinking the same thing. But come next year, it will feel even longer due to the anticipation of the rumored 2009 coaster. Please Brown, the 2008 season hasn't even started and you're telling me how the next one will be even worse? BTW: I am in St. Louis till Friday, and while i was at the store I saw and ad for Evel Kenivel roller coaster, and it either helped or hurt my anticipation, I haven't decided. Quote
iChase Posted March 26, 2008 Posted March 26, 2008 I'm really excited about cinnabon... lol... Ill third that Im going to Flight of Fear first then hit Firehawk I think I'll try to fit in Flight of Fear first. Gordon...Helicopter?! Quote
