DropZone99 Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 I really wish I could make it to CP's opening weekend, but I do not have a ride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dvo Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 The only things that interest me are the Magnum celebration and the skydiver. The scavenger hunt is a fun idea, but this year's is really easy. I know more than half of them just by looking at the photos. Nonetheless, it's Cedar Point. So even if they didn't have a single event that day, it'd still be a FANTASTIC day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
violakat03 Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 Too funny. I played in the OSU Athletic Band last year. I still know a bunch of the members. So it'll be kinda fun to see some old friends (and I'm glad I'm not in the band right now - I'd rather be enjoying CP!) The skydiver bringing the American flag sounds really awesome. I definitely want to see that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Interpreter Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 That's better than a fair day... Well, most fairs, anyway... Terpy, who simply must get to the Texas State Fair some day..and who remembers an ad campaign: "Get to The Point!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhantomTheater Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 Terpy you got the jingle that went along with that slogan in my head. Of course CP is The Amazement Park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 and America's Rock and Roller Coast! Not to be confused with what was once known as "The Roller Coaster Capital of the World" Did you get that? Kenny would. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dvo Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 I always liked "America's Roller Coast." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gigacoaster2k Posted May 7, 2009 Author Share Posted May 7, 2009 I always liked "America's Roller Coast." I do too. That says it all, and it's not cheesy or sloganistic (yes, I made up a word.. I tend to do that). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoddaH1994 Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 You can clearly see the influence of Kings Island's current regime on this event. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markr Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 I think they still use the ad campaign "get to the point" on tv and radio ads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
