Ive asked this about 3-4 times already and hopefully I get an answer..

The ERT for Diamondback on opening day is taking place at 8:45... where exactly will the gold pass/platinum pass holders meet to walk back to Diamondback?

I Have The Same Question,Lets See What The Interpreter Says,HE KNOWS EVERYTHING.It Least Thats Sounds Like It

Here is how ERT has worked in the past. You can enter the park like normal. You go to the section of the park that is supposed to have ERT. There will be a rope there holding the other guest back or some kind of barrier. You show the guards thier your pass and they will let you by. Beings that this is the first day Diamondback will be open things might be slightly different.

Where Do We Go To Get Access,By The Ropes By The Greeters Ice Cream

So were did you all find out about this ERT for DB? I can't find anything in the press release that says DB has ERT on opening day?

Kigns Island Gold Pass information this will answer your question!

Just scroll down to find it

Usually that is where the barrier is. Most of the time peaple don't even realize that the barrier is there. One time me and my family walked in, on the 4th of july last year, and were the first public riders on The Beast. Anyways, I think it will be hard to even find the gate with everyone around you.

EDIT: never mind pkiruler beat me..

Sorry Haunt!!!

ha.. its all good!

I'm so pumped for this ride... I plan on arriving with 2 friends around 6:00 ish.. Will be on the ERT, and if you see me don't mind to say hello! I'll probably be wearing a white t-shirt that says HTCO on the back and KIC on the front in red sharpie

It doesn't seem too long ago we were reading the Rumor Coaster for 2009 topic, and now here we are, 2 days before opening day. Time flies.

Heck yea, I guess I might just have to attend that. So ERT will start at 9am or 8:45am?

No kidding time has flown by fast.

Escorting to Starbucks will occur at 8:45, ERT will begin at 9:00.

wait? we meet at starbucks? confused

People will be allowed to walk to the area that Starbucks is in on International Street

alrighty, thanks..

My fam is leaving Indy now at 6:30, but we are making a stop at BK to get breakfast we should be in the parking lot at the very latest by 9 A.M. Since I have decided not to buy a season pass for the time being I will be waiting until ten to ride.

Why are you not getting a season pass?

If you are planning to come to KI more than once, its a waste of money not to get a season pass.

Ok wait a second, if the ERT is at 9am Saturday morning. Then when is this Auction bid off first ride going to happen? I though it was that morning before the parked opened?

Auction winners start getting their rides at 8 a.m....but I am surprised that they would do an ERT on that day, cause it seems like with the auction, opening day, and all, that the media would be involved and management and such and that would take more than an hour.....just my thoughts.

Saw an awesome video of Diamondback on youtube.

^^^Which one?

It's only 8 trains for the auction correct? If so, then it shouldn't take more than an hour. I could be wrong though.....

This one!

Along with radio stations, newspapers, magazines and a carrier pigeon. Not to mention families of the auction winners, some of the charity's kids to ride, etc. Yes, the park will be busy. Those of us who love the park and post here often should find plenty of ways to keep happy and amuse ourselves at our beloved venue.

That video is great!

Awesome Video......

I hope i can ride now, it may be a tight fit!!!

I don't know. I am not a huge fan of back row seats on new coasters so I guess it is all luck!

ya i do not care where i sit for the coaster any seat is fine with me!!
