tigellinus Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 I'll have no problems myself considering DST is still killing me, and I'm past my spry years at an ol' 27, but given that tonight is almost like Christmas Eve in its anticipation I'm not sure everyone will fall right asleep tonight!?

Dvo Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 I certainly hope so, considering I have to be at the park no later than 7:00 to check in for the auction......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atomheartmother616 Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 I will definetly be sleeping as I cant stand dragging all day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongLiveTheSmurfRide Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 I'm sure I'll have a hard time sleeping, but considering I have to be up at 5 to get on the road by 6; I'm going to NEED to sleep as much as I can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gad198 Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 I don't think the problem will be getting to sleep for me, anyway; it'll be the getting up at 6 am! There really is nothing like being at Kings Island for the debut of a new coaster, particularly one of this magnitude. I'd almost liken it to the difference between being at a Spring Training baseball game compared to Game 7 of a World Series. The energy in the place is totally different and you know that it's a special day as soon as you get in the park. I'm curious for those folks who were there at either SOB's or FOF's opening day (last comparable occasions IMO) how they feel about tomorrow in comparison. I'd say it's close, particularly in light of the fact that I feel this will be a much more enjoyable and re-rideable attraction, but the buzz around those rides was bigger if only because the amusement park world hadn't seen rides quite like that before.

The Interpreter Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 For the opening of Flight of Fear, there was nothing but excitement. For the opening of Son of Beast, many of us were holding our collective breaths and saying, "Please let this be as fantastic as it looks." For the opening of this wonderful ride, I at least am thrilled to finally be able to see it coming to Kings Island! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atomheartmother616 Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 I was at opening day for Vortex dont remember much unfotuntely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beast1979 Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 In a word? No. I am so excited to be able to finally be able to enjoy Kings Island again, I'm having trouble concentrating on anything unrelated to KI. Not to mention, that beautiful steel masterpiece called Diamondback! When I saw Diamondback rise, never did I imagine I could be one of the first riders! Jackson, posting from his iPod, in Art Class.

Tom76257 Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 I could BARELY get to sleep last night thinking of Diamondback and what else I'm going to do tomorrow at the park. I KNOW I'm going to have a tougher time getting to sleep tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trevor75 Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 Well since I won't be able to get to the park until June 2nd or 3rd, I won't have any problems sleeping tonight!

violakat03 Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 I definitely will sleep tonight. I didn't get enough sleep last night (not because of excitement, just cause of other thing going on in my life) so I'm already tired today and want to hit the hay early tonight.

XGatorHead 8904 Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 I think I may have some trouble getting to sleep tonight, but of course I'm up until about 2:00 or 3:00 most nights anyway. I think I may make a rare non-work hours appearance on KICentral tonight, chatting with all the others who aren't in bed yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I KNOW I'm going to have a tougher time getting to sleep tonight. Same for me, I got about 4 hours of sleep last night and I have a feeling I'll get less tonight. And we're leaving at 530 so we're gonna be at the park around 615. I'm gonna be dragging by the end of the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
