crazypkikid2005 Posted April 15, 2009 Posted April 15, 2009 anticipointment would be riding sob for the first time I can't see Diamondback being even in the same category Don't get your hopes to high though go into thinking "this will be the crappiest ride I've ever been on and then you'll almost be guaranteed a great ride. Though I'm sure it will be better than SOB!
Colonel_SoB_fan Posted April 15, 2009 Posted April 15, 2009 Another season of operation, another season of the hating on the awesome Son of Beast
The Interpreter Posted April 15, 2009 Posted April 15, 2009 You seem to think some of the posters have a mean streak in them when it comes to Sonny?
Colonel_SoB_fan Posted April 15, 2009 Posted April 15, 2009 I will let their typed words speak for themselves.
Go Browns Posted April 15, 2009 Posted April 15, 2009 Looks like some lucky employees are having a bit of fun on this rainy day...
catzdrummer09 Posted April 15, 2009 Posted April 15, 2009 ^ NOT FAIR!!! WAIT IN LINE LIKE THE REST OF US!!!
The Interpreter Posted April 15, 2009 Posted April 15, 2009 And if you wanted to ride with the employees, you could have tried to become one! I am sure the park would be most happy to take your application.
coasterguy15 Posted April 15, 2009 Posted April 15, 2009 I don't mind that they are riding, its just that all of us have been waiting for 1 1/2 years for this and they have been waiting, what, a week?
The Interpreter Posted April 15, 2009 Posted April 15, 2009 You won't have to wait a week Saturday morning. The line won't be that long!
UnrealNightmare Posted April 15, 2009 Posted April 15, 2009 no not a week maybe two three hours but to some that may feel like a week!
coasterguy15 Posted April 15, 2009 Posted April 15, 2009 Well, what I meant is that they have known that they are going to get ERT on it for about a week and have been anticipating it since then. We, on the other hand, have been anticipating it for 1 1/2 years.
coaster_junky Posted April 15, 2009 Posted April 15, 2009 You seem to think some of the posters have a mean streak in them when it comes to Sonny? i know i have, and i know i have talked bad about mean streak before, but it's really not that bad.
CincinnatiCyclone Posted April 15, 2009 Posted April 15, 2009 Once again I cant get in at 10:00! I get in at 2:00 with a wait of what 4-5 hours? You all sound dissapointed you have to wait in line. Although I am complaining too!
The Interpreter Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 Not everyone is disappointed. Some look forward to the wait. Others would be glad to have the opportunity to wait in line any time Saturday at all. Everything is relative.
markhudson17 Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 I don't mind the lines unless you have very annoying people around you. Sometime's you can have a conversation with your line neighbors and it makes the time fly by.
The Interpreter Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 I've met some very nice people in ride lines across the country...and a few jerks...not many of the latter, thankfully!
tigellinus Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 ^^This could be a great time to say, Terpy, if I ever meet you and not know it, please don't think I'm a jerk!!! A guy in the SC enterance line at CP last year tried making convo with me, and I thought it *might* be you (turns out it wasn't), and I kind of blew him off...the commentary wasn't that of an enthusiast. So just please know I'm really not like that!!
DropZone99 Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 I can not wait to wait in Diamondback's queue. I'll be with alot of friends, but hopefully I meet alot of new people!

So just please know I'm really not like that!! Unless it was the last day at Cedar Point last year, it wasn't me! And I don't even own a fanny pack, don't do gravy buffets, and rarely talk coaster stuff in parks...now park stuff.....

The Interpreter Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 I was an ACEr before you were born, young'un. Not your typical ACEr, but ACEr nonetheless...and way too many other coaster clubs as well...more letters there than I have degrees...not that that's saying too much!

And I don't even own a fanny pack, don't do gravy buffets, and rarely talk coaster stuff in parks...now park stuff..... It was Labor Day...I whole-heartedly admit I was very tired, and the guy was drinking a Starbucks coffee (venti size) and ate two donuts...a big clue right there he wasn't you. If for any reason, how can you squeeze in every short-wait Maverick ride possible before all the cattle come back there with that sort of beverage drinking strategy?? Coffee is a diuretic, afterall. Then he started going-on about how great of a day it was going to be weather wise...I mean, I can't see this for myself?? I was probably more tired than anything, but the coffee drinking pre what was 2+ hours of Maverick riding for me was mind-numbing.
The Interpreter Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 Glad it wasn't hot tea and a piece of Chuck Wagon Pizza...now that would concern me!
coasterguy15 Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 I forgot to post this earlier, but I caught a good view of The Beast/Crypt area of Rivertown. The landscaping under the helix is looking nice!
Colonel_SoB_fan Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 Just saw a Kings Island commercial in Richmond, Ky
goofywdw Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 Waterfall is looking nice too. Can't wait to see it turned on.
catzdrummer09 Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 So is that the entrance to The Beast in the upper right hand corner?
coasterguy15 Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 No it isn't, but dang they did some major landscaping around the Crypt entrance! The Beast entrance will be towards the upper left corner of the picture.
Jonathan Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 Just saw a Kings Island commercial in Richmond, Ky How was it? I plan on taking advantage of the ERT for DB on opening day. I plan on getting there a bit before 8:45 since my pass is already processed. How long should the line be for that?
