Thrill_Biscuit Posted July 17, 2008 Posted July 17, 2008 ^Majide? LOL on the "Mustang" car-to-warplane nonsequitur! Brilliant and funny!
RingMaster Posted July 17, 2008 Posted July 17, 2008 ^ Well, the coaster is bound to make people squeal like a little piggy.... ....although it's for a completely different reason than what the movie offered, I'm (hopefully) assuming.
gms21089 Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 Im going with Mustang.. "Ride Sally Ride", MUSTANG sally? & this is PROBABLY a little over analyzation.. "Slippery When Wet" was the name of a Bon Jovi album in the late 80s. It was released on Aug. 18th, 1986.. Could that be the day of the offical press release?.. Considering materials, er, well.. Mysterious boxes containting who knows what have arrived at the park? The English word "mustang" comes from the mexican spanish word mestengo, derived from Spanish mesteño, meaning "stray" or "feral animal". The Spanish word in turn may possibly originate from the Latin expression animalia mixta (mixed beasts), referring to beasts of uncertain ownership.. Maybe Rivertown is gonna be full of Beasts.. Which could possibly explain "Run for the Hills".. Of course being the type of ride it is, airtime on the hills of this thing will hopefully be insane, but maybe also refers to one of the best rides in the park, that you can only see about 20% of from the walkway due to it being hidden in the HILLS, and forest terrain. And "steep incline ahead'"?.. well i didnt over analyze that one, Im just hoping to be face up chainlifted into the heavens on what I hope to be an outstanding coaster. teasers, psh.. nothing we cant exxagerate and make completly of the wall accusations upon. Gotta love 'em. =]
Racer1972 Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 What if they named it someting similar to mustang? maybe something like the stallion

BoddaH1994 Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 With the quotes, clues i have seen recently and the recent discussion. I truly belive it will be named Cobra/King Cobra... here is my rationale.... the reference to the name being a Mustang are somewhat deciving b/c... "what is the top of the line mustang called?" Cobra, Shelby Cobra, King Cobra (all depends on what era/decade) those are my thoughts. and why not rename it? it will be fun. Interesting concept with the Kings Cobra. Kinda fits the "something old becomes new again" theme that Kings Island seems to have.

I'm betting on this theory/name.
The Interpreter Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 Better Leviathan than Leviticus. At least as a coaster name! Imagine the revelations some would have on that thing.
Thrill_Biscuit Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 ^Quoting The Interpreter... "Better Leviathan than Leviticus. At least as a coaster name! Imagine the revelations some would have on that thing." Yes. Riders experience the rapture of ascending towards the heavens, then descend with a shout. [[looks toward the sky]]] That wasn't thunder, was it? ("Sacrilege" isn't already taken as a coaster name, is it?)

I'm betting on this theory/name. Multiple dots just got connected on that one! Sounds like a winner to me. I'd rather see it called Cobra than Fugitive personally, but whatever it's called I'm still looking forward to a kickarse ride
G-Force Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 Yeah, I'm betting on the cobra theme as well. But I don't think it will be King Cobra. Because I don't think they would do the same name. Maybe just Cobra or Cobra's Revenge.
KIBeast Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 You would surely lose that bet, Dakota. I can nearly guarantee there will be no return of any Cobra at any time and since it was already used once at the park, it's highly unlikely to happen again.
Steve Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 How about a Cedar Fair name! "Giant metal hypercoster"
RailRider Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 Well I for one would put money on the fact that it isnt going to be Cobra or any variation of it. Doesn't fit the Rivertown or quasi Wester Theme at all. Plus theres not going to be a massive retheme to that area... I would still like to stick to The Beast Hunter name and idea, but here are some other ones I have. Well if we stick with a Western Theme, King Cobra doesnt fit. Most feared snake in the west? Rattlesnakes, which are a type of Viper. So how about Steel Viper or Iron Viper? In keeping with the Rivertown theme, what do us folks on the Ohio River and especially back in the hills like to make? Moonshine. Another name for Moonshine? White Lightning. How about White Lightning Express or some variation? And last but not least the Mustang clue. CF is arleady putting in the Poney Express at KBF, so we could see a recycle or also something along the lines of, The Wild Stalion, Stampede or Elanor... Just my thoughts kids.

I can nearly guarantee there will be no return of any Cobra at any time and since it was already used once at the park, it's highly unlikely to happen again. Wasn't a "Beast" name used once (or twice if you count "beastie") at the park before SOB? Good try though.
CoastersNSich Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 He's from Cincinnati, and he's pushing B&M, so... KEVIN YOUKILIS: THE RIDE
Thrill_Biscuit Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 How about a Cedar Fair name! "Giant metal hypercoster" Close, Steve! Observing the evidence, one might not expect the use of more than one adjective. Thus, the name would be either "Metal Hypercoaster" or "Giant Hypercoaster". "Giant Metal" or "Metal Giant" have nice rings to them as well.
RailRider Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 I like that name, good fit to area and could definately theme it well. Also fits the signs well. And yes The Ride Sally sign, snakes will sometimes startle horses so I could see that. We shall see.
KIfan73 Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 Whenever people are guessing at the name of this ride, I always think of this post by Mr. Interpreter: Fine; Verb/Preposition/Indefinite Article/Noun: Run For The Hills Send In The Cranes. Note the sentence structure. The park strikes back. You just have to know how to interpret the signs.
Thrill_Biscuit Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 Let's see... Splash Through Some Water Fly Along The Track Slither Over A Log Attack Of The Snake (Sorry, Snake Attack!) Puke Into A Ravine Hey, this works
Tomkatt7 Posted July 18, 2008 Posted July 18, 2008 A Copperhead's venom is not fatal, but it can make you VERY ill...... Same can be said of an intense coaster. There is my reasoning!!! LOL

Note the sentence structure. The park strikes back. You just have to know how to interpret the signs. The sign that reads: "Ride Sally, Ride" is the real clue. Are'nt there any oldies fans here? Mustang Sally rides a MUSTANG ~Josh
kjkjkj Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 that was a possibility up until they put the teaser on the KI website showing some kind of creature's eyeball, which would rule out mustang.
kjkjkj Posted July 23, 2008 Posted July 23, 2008 well, most horses i've seen do not have "slit" eyeballs so that rules out mustang. lol
CoasterKrazy Posted July 24, 2008 Posted July 24, 2008 A reputable source over at CoasterBuzz claimed when he heard of the coaster back in '06, he was told it would have the same trains as Behemoth, and sadly, the same name. He's right on the first count, but I can only hope the second has since been changed. The press invitations seem to indicate otherwise, though...
