I for one am getting more and more pumped to go down to KI on the 31 for the offseason blues party! I have not seen Kings Island since October 18 of last year, and I can't wait to go down there and see the KI skyline again, and meet everyone on here.

This will be my first KIC event, so I can't wait to see what is in store!

^ Same for me! This will also be my first event.

Only 14 more days!

I doubt I'll be going. No ride as always, and I probably won't be making it down to Winter SOAR either. Next year that will change though cause I'll be able to drive, and I will be at every coaster event at KI!

Where do you live in relation to Dayton?

^^Her "From:" says Circle City...so Indy would be a pretty good guess to me.

No sarcasm allowed.. that's MY job!

I know I've only been a member here for 5 months, but I already feel like I've known you guys for half my life. It is our deeply embedded passion for roller coasters (and other related rides, objects, environments, and whatever) that brings us together!

countdown: 13 more days

I am so excited! I can't wait to see everyone there, not to mention being able to walk through KI again!

See, I didn't know Circle City was Indy. That's why I was asking.

angrybeaver is a guy....

I'm excited for the season. Since I was slow to get my tickets, I won't be going to the Blues party so my blues will remain a little longer until April.

I guess, considering my name, blue isn't such a bad thing.

This will also be my first KIC event! I just can't wait to walk through International Street and make my way to Rivertown where I get to see Diamondback up close! It would be really cool if one of the shipments of Diamondback's cars are on site for us to see!

^me either, i've even set up a countdown on my cellular device.

I think I'm just as excited to meet the people from this board as I am for the actual tour.

This will be my first event actually attending. I was at the park for the first event, I just didn't attend that one. Can't wait to meet you all and have a little fun at the park in the winter.

If you had an extra ticket, I'd pick you up and take you there.

WOW! 3 months

Well!!!! a little excited are we? i know i love Kings Island BUT i wouldnt count down the days until like a month or so is left.

I WILL NOT be there for the blues party Sniff Sniff but i will be watchin over someway or another i will look for you guys on the webcam.

Well!!!! a little excited are we?

Hence the whole point of this thread. Kind of like a pep rally before the big game. Now GET EXCITED PEOPLE!!

-reads post above mine-

Okay. Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

10 DAYS!

WHOO-HOO!!! 10 days!!!

(Is that better? )

I can easly say that i cant wait. I think Kings Island comes across my mind more than anything else.

This is such a great group I really wish I lived closer and was able to attend. But I'll wait for an event when the park is open and just enjoy this one vicariously through all of you.

Is this event going to be on a webcam? I wanna see. I can't come to the party (no ticket and I can't make it anyhow)

I would love to see everyone getting hyped.

I luckily got someone else's tickets that isn't able to go! Hooray for me and my guest! I'm sure were all in for a real treat as we look up and see Diamondback towering over us. As this is my first KIC event, I've never seen a park in a dormant state before, this is going to be very intriguing! Looking forward to seeing everyone there.

Off topic: Are we going to have nametags to identify everyone?

^ If so, I'm not going to write down beastfan26. I will draw a KIC Doodle guy on it!

Well atleast ever since the surgery. I just had to say that, and yes I really am kidding, I have been a guy since I was born.

I believe Dane said the badges will only have names...however, I also believe he said you can write your KIC username on it as well if you'd like.

what is and when is the blues party??? Also for new employees about the uniform shorts (or pants) can you get expandable waistband cause I gained weight during the winter.
