CoastersRZ Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 I beat you by a few seconds with the link. From now on, when you post an article like that, it is helpful to post the link. I`m not sure what the resolution is on your monitor, but I certainly couldn`t read the article until I found it on their website! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

violakat03 Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 8 days out and a change in the weather forecast. Weather.com now shows a high of 62° and a low of 42° and mostly sunny with a chance of precipitation of only 10%. Expect a packed park if that forecast holds out.

tigellinus Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 ^^Which still proves the fact of how unpredictable the long-range forecasts are. I still believe Wednesday morning will be the earliest time to have the best accuracy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flightoffear1996 Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 Packed or not I will be there to get my Diamondback ride in and hopefully a few others. As long as it isnt a Knevil day I do not mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jovigirl33 Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 My sister and I are coming on the 1st of May - it's a Friday, do you guys suspect that the park will be really crowded then? I was hoping to get some of the opening day rush out of the way and go on a week day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastersRZ Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 I`m not certain, but I believe that may in fact be the first Math and Science Day. Which means there could be lots and lots of school kids there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IndyGuy4KI Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 Amusement Parks roll out attractions The writer did write a lot more on the Indiana parks than SFKK and KI's portion. I realize this is the INDY Star not ACE writing the article. I would say the introduction of Diamondback is a lot more news worthy that IB's free park admission this year, but I might be partial to KI. I will say though, IB is where I rode my first coaster (Galaxy) after being drug up to it by my parents with me crying and screaming. I got off and rode it again. I still really enjoy the park.

Diamondback FOF Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 SO you did go out and buy one. Do they still sell the 8gb i only see the 16 and 32 gb. I am thinking of getting a new ipod shuffle there cool looking even though i already have a P2 Yes, they still sell the 8GB as far as I'm aware. Last time I was at Walmart they were selling it. Aslo, I personally don't like the new Shuffle. I think it is too small and it has virtually no buttons on it. I think Apple has finlly went too far on one of their products.

kiruler102 Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 Plus if you go on may 1st you can meet up with gatorhead and others since he is planning a trip that same day...

Browntggrr Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 I haven't been around lately... What is this "Diamondback" ride? I thought KI already had a runaway mine car ride?

TheCryptRaider Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 I just saw a part on News 5 about DB and KI opening. They were showing pictures of the UNCOMPLETE track.. Also, they said that it opened April 19th I think it'll be funny when people are going to be turned away on the 19th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HTCO Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 And for that reason right their is why I don't watch local news often.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastersRZ Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 Well, the commercials that KI has been airing on both the radio and television the past few days have been making a big deal about the park opening April 18th, and being closed Sunday April 19th. And yes, the local media can be quite horrendous at times. Yesterday, WCPO (Channel 9) had an article up where they said "considered" instead of what they intended to say which was "concerned."

kiruler102 Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 the news should look for spelling errors or grammar correction, or word use before airing these articles and suchon the air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thrill_Biscuit Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 Watching local news can be amusing. "Today on Local Action News for You: The newest thrill at "The King Islands", "The Diamond is Back"...er, Diamondback, I should say, is coming to strike terror into the hearts of "tri-state," um..."Miami-valley," (dang!) "Inland Empire" thrill seekers of all ages!
