The Interpreter Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 I'm glad to hear it...but must ask if that sponsorship topic can now be disposed of, since some will claim it is garbage here. We could just bag it now... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RingMaster Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 A nickname I gave Firehawk was SpongeBob 2.0 because of the way the seats go down into the flight position. Opening Day for the Hawk, Amy and I are strapped into the train awaiting our first flight. We go down into our flight position and then...nothing. They lift us back into our seated and upright positions to see what's wrong. After assuming everything's fine, they lay us back down again and then...nothing. Again. We are lifted back up again and they say they are having technical difficulties (this is when they were only running one side of the station). By the third time we went back down, I yell out, "This is better than SpongeBob!" The whole train and half the station cracks up at this. Another nickname we have for the Hawk is the Dangit! Coaster. This is due to 60% of the time we want to ride the Hawk, the ride is down, and down for quite a while, of which we scream out, "Dangit!" and walk 10 feet to Flight of Fear. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coney_man Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 when scoobys ghoster coaster was up, i felt sorry for the guys (the dads) who rode it with their kids,it always busts their nuts. Hence the name "Scooby's nut buster" Hats off to whom those who lost their nuts on that ride *plays taps* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CedarPointer Posted February 13, 2010 Author Share Posted February 13, 2010 Courtesy of my good ol' McDougal Littell Geometry book, the same book that talked about "the Milenium Force". Does anyone else notice the three major problems with this "water ride"? And, if this is part of it, I wonder what the rest looks like!

Cory Butcher Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 Technically doesn't the biggest inside joke reside in a box somewhere up Rivertown way next to The Beast lurking in the woods? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dbfan Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 I just tend to call FOF Firehawk. Whenever someone says "Lets ride Firehawk" 90% of the time it means FOF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This reminds me of when my science teacher claimed that all roller coasters stop for two seconds at the top of the lift, the top of a loop, and the top of a hill....

josh4958 Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 When we pile into the van, and no destination was given to the rest of the family, we call it Adventure Express. Then, when my daughter is driving, we call it Flight of Fear. Do those count? I know this is coming from a Fairly Odd family who all suffer from Invertigo, has a sink that drains as quick as a Vortex, and who's head of the house is a real Beast (not to mention, his male off-spring, the Son of Beast). Now, I think I'll crawl back into my Crypt for a nap! LOL Please every one give a big hand for Hank, and remember to tip your waiters and waitress. And never ever try and pet a KI employee They will bite... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last year, we watched the Diamondback POV in my science class, and worked out some simple physics problems about the ride. I miss freshman science.

Plankton Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 "86 the frosted flakes" While staying at the run down Days Inn Kings Island, we made a joke about getting to breakfast promptly at 6 a.m. in order to get first dibs on the minimal amount of food they would likely serve. After we returned to our room, I made it look like I was going to steal her generous portion of Frosted Flakes from her bowl. While she was defending, she knocked the entire contents allllll over the floor, and giggles "86 the frosted flakes." It was hilarious because she just learned the restaurant lingo a few hours prior and went to Kings Island without a snack. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
