Orange (Perhaps Yellow) Wristband?

Featured Replies

Hi all. Been reading this site for about a year and a half now. Have to feed the addiction somehow!

We went to opening day Sunday and I saw an adult wearing an orange (it may have been yellow with orange writing) bracelet with the King's Island lettering. It was one of those paper ones like the kids get, so he would not have bought it anywhere as it is something disposable. Just wondering what it meant?

Thanks so much!

It was probably for some group thing....like soft drinks at no additional charge all day, or for entry to the group's picnic....

Thanks much! Was certain it was something simple. It was the only one I saw that day, but then, on opening day, I had my eyes pointed upwards! :P

it was the height addmition cause i had one. it also could be the same thing the other people say.

On an adult? How strange is that?

I did see a picnic event going on at the picnic grove on Sunday, but my guess would be a wrist band to show ride operators that they are under a certain height and the color is orange in the height guide.

You Must Be Under:

80” Tall to ride Drop Tower – Firehawk

78” Tall to ride Invertigo

76” Tall to ride Delirium - Run Away Retar

Thats a great idea for the ride wristbands .. gets rid of any waiting in line and then getting ticked off that you cant ride it for people who don't know the requirements. Hopefully they do that all year that is a nice added feature from Cedar Fair .. they really are doing a fabulous job at Kings Island in my opinion.

The ride measurement program existed under Paramount, as well. Guest relations used to do the measuring at the front of the park, then later in the information booth under the Eiffel Tower.

One thing I learned about this year was the green wristband for kids. Put it on the child and write the parents cell # (if they have one) on it-speeds up the process of reuniting each other if they get separated. I dont remember them last year if they were available at all.

Yes, but looks like CF is doing it better.

..... Like most things.

<G>

Yep, CF is good at looking like they do things better.

Terpy, who just had to.

Which of course is one step beyond Paramount.

Heck, even when they thought they were doing well.... it looked like ..... gravel, closed shops, closed rides, etc.

Could be a valid point, if you were here to experience it first hand.

Yes Mom.

I actually called mom after the gym.

First thing out of her mouth, "When are you coming up?"

Indeed, The Beast is calling you...

Oh, woofer.....oh woofer.....experience Kings Island, and the one and only Beast....

To this day, The Beast is my favorite Woodie. There is nothing like riding it at dusk as the fog begins to fall over the track. It's funny, it's almost spiritual to ride it then.

At dusk in the fog...... Top of the first lift hill looking at the fog coming off the river....... Top of the second lift hill looking at the lights of the park through the fog........ Temperature not too hot or cold...... Without a care in the world...... It is perfect!!!

And, back on topic, I believe the orange wristbands are for taller people who are under the maximum height. I know someone who is tall and they said they were given a wristband for that reason. (I'm only 6'1" so I never have that problem, just repeating what I've been told)

See, you completely understand!

alot of the people that come from the lodge next door have braclets on for using their water area. We seen them last year with them on.

Orange wristbands signify that a person is 54 inches, not that they are under the max height for certain rides. Unless it has changed this year....

So do you, my friend. I'm glad I'm not the only one who can appreciate that. See you in the fog (If its not too thick:) ).

thank you!
