Trip report 4/26/09

[kiruler102]

So we lefted Elsmere, Kentucky at 845 snd got to Kings Island at 925.

my friend bought his ticket and we went inside.

Since he couldnt go to the ERT i jumped on 2 rides on Diamondback and met him at the entrance of DB.

When i got off the line was past rivertown junction

so we went to The Beast, we sat in the middle and it was really smooth, especially the helix part. It was my friends first time on it

We then headed back to Diamondback and waited 25 minutes for seat 16.

We then decided to ride the crypt, but as we were getting seated unto the ride the ride malfunctioned and we had to get off, WE WAITED 30 MINUTES to ride!!!!! i was mad, the ride was down the rest of the day.

we then went past BLSC to see a pretty long wait, same for Vortex

we walked onto the zephyr nice small ride to calm my nerves down from the crypts malfunction.

FOF was a hour wait so we skipped it

same for the Firehawk about a hour, so we skipped.

We then headed to The Racer, AND WE ACTUALLY RACED. Walkon blue side

then unto Adventure Express, walk on

we then were going to ride Son of Beast but the line was a hour, so we rode flight deck.

We then headed towards Diamondback again, SRL

nice tr you get some sun/wind burn?

^^From the sounds of those wait times it seems like KI was a lot less busy today than yesterday.

[kiruler102]

i didnt get wind or sun burn, and YES the park was packed but not on the rides i rode.

I don't think, what the wait time says is right.. They must forget to change the wait time on them signs.

[kiruler102]

no they give a rough estimate even though it can sometimes be 5 to 10 minutes off.

I don't think, what the wait time says is right.. They must forget to change the wait time on them signs.

If that is true, an incorrect sign is worse than no sign at all. Though, at Six Flags, I think wait times are often overstated in a deliberate attempt to sell more Q-Bots.

haha i noticed that.. Friday night at about 9:30 pm on The Beast it said 30 minute wait.. We got up there and it was walk on. hah

Yes today the park was in fact very packed. The after prom party theory was true because i saw about 40 or so people in the same after prom party shirt. Then i saw another large group in another shirt and not to mention all the people i heard talking about prom.

How do 40 people fit in one shirt? Or another large group in another shirt?

Thanks for that mental picture....tee hee...
