VortexJunkie Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 Went to KI yesterday and it was a great time. I planned to do a full trip report, but I didn't get as many interesting pictures as I had planned. So I'll post the good ones I got. Success! After several failed attempts I finally managed to snap a shot of the "welcome to ohio" sign as my wife was speeding past. Kinda silly, but I'm proud of it! We were running behind schedule and missed the ERT, but because of being late I got to get a picture of one of the skydivers as we arrived at the parking lot at around 10 am. This one had a KI flag. I saw one with an american flag but didn't get a pic. This guy was out all day in the hot sun wearing a halloween costume and face paint to promote the haunt. What a sport! Line jumpers exposed!! These two guys line jumped for SoB. I guess since their friend had already been waiting in line they felt that gave them the right to pass everyone else to meet their friends. Then when we got in the station I nonchalantly snapped a photo of them sitting on the hand rails. This of course was after the middle of the line ice cube fight. Total jerks, so I wanted to expose them! And for the most amusing moment of the day. My wife got SUPER star struck when she spotted Mia and her friend Aubrie from the show "taking the stage" on MTV while waiting in line for SoB. If you notice the guy in the white shirt is looking straight at the camera. Right after my wife took the picture he pointed at us and said something to Mia. I couldn't hear him, but by attempting to read his lips i believe he said something like "they spotted you up there." If you read this Mia... you have me to thank for keeping my wife from shouting "it's her! Sing me a song, Mia!" LOL That's all I have for photos. It was a busy day, but we managed to get a fair amount of rides plus a fair amount of down time. I rode Firehawk for the second time and changed my mind.. I hated it the first time, but now I LOVE IT! I also got my second ride on Diamondback which was fantastic. I rode KI&MVRR for the first time and rather enjoyed it. And I got my wife on congo falls for the first time and she hated it HAHA. I thought it was fun. We both set ride goals, which we both did not meet. Mine was to go 100% no hands, but SoB was tossing me around like a rag doll, I chickened out on the first Diamondback drop, and I clung on for life on Firehawk. Other than that I was hands free. My wife's goal was to do Diamondback no hands... She clung on the whole time, let go for the on-ride photo, then tried playing like she didn't hold on hahaha was a good time.

Kawana Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 I must be getting old because I have no idea who that is. Or it could be because I don't have cable. Thanks for the TR. Good to see you had a fun time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
