Headed to Kings Island amusement park this weekend? Expect a lot of company. The prediction for the big crowds is coming from an unusual source: Google.

Officials at the Internet search giant say the Mason attraction ranked No. 4 for fastest-growing search item in the past week among all U.S. travel destinations heading into the Memorial Day weekend.

Pretty interesting. I'm glad I didn't plan on going, especially now that Google has said this.

I gotta say, even today was pretty crowded.

It's going to be absolutely crazy tomorrow, I have a hunch.

You working tomorrow? If so good luck, should be a fast day!

Looks like I am going to be taking some screenshots of the webcam tomorrow. Anyone want to take any bets on how long Diamondback's line gets?

It wasn't crowded at all yesterday.

I heard otherwise from a member on this site

I was shocked it wasn't busier today. I have to say it was diffrent hearing this morning there was a two hour wait for Diamondback. anyone know what the issue with the trains was?

Anyone on here know if Memorial Day itself tends to be busy? My family and I have gold passes so we'd likely go for ERT but just wondering if anyone has been on Memorial Day in the past? Thanks

Being a holiday, it likely will be busy, though the threat of rain may scare some people away.
