homestar92 Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 T3 train is in the station. Read that sentence very carefully. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magenta Lizard Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 Is it that there is only a /single/ train that you are trying to draw our attention to? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homestar92 Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 Indeed. In better news, pizza portions are back to two slices and prices have been reduced compared to 2014. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homestar92 Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 Pricing inconsistent for same product throughout park. Pizza at Swampwater Jacks is 5.09. At the stand by Thunder Run it's 6.79. Those prices reflect a 20% discount with a season pass. EDIT: Maybe not. Posted calorie count is higher at the Thunder Run stand. Perhaps those portions are larger. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 Is the product the same? I wonder how much it is at the front gate place. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homestar92 Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 ^ See my edit. Possible that they are not. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homestar92 Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 540 calories at Thunder Run. ~350 at Swampwater (don't remember the exact number and currently en route to front gate to check there). Casa Mia (front gate) same as Thunder Run and same price. Calorie counts are for pepperoni. Prices for Cheese and Pesto Mia pizza are the same as pepperoni at all locations. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

APE Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 Good news, I'm still allowed in! And glasses straps are no longer $5. Now $1.59. When I was there last week they were both prices. Essentially they were the same except on had a quarter size KK logo and the other had a logo the ran across the whole back. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheCandyManCan Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 Too bad you can't get an out of state discount for the tax paid Kentucky park. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsus Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 The only out of state plate I've seen is an Ohio one, and it's mine... Heh.. I keep seeing the same out-of-state plate at Cedar Point, Kings Island, and even Knott's Berry Farm. Then I realize it's mine.. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malem Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 There are days at Cedar Point when there seem to be as many Michigan plates as Ohio plates. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcgoble3 Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 I'll bet there's a good mixture of license plates at Carowinds. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsus Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Sure, but then again, the parking lot at Carowinds is split between two states. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acfinn Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 See a Washington plate at KI and it is probably mine or my wife's car. Can't imagine there are too many. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dtk1378 Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Sure, but then again, the parking lot at Carowinds is split between two states. ........... I've seen a few Hawaii plates in Kentucky before, but I could probably only count them on one hand obviously. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silver2005 Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 I will admit I'm starting to kind of change my mind a bit on whether to go or not. I know I've pretty much grounded myself in not wanting to support the park, but I'm also a bit intrigued by this park as well. I do see that despite the upper management issues, they do alright (in the most basic interpretation of the word 'alright'). I may contemplate a visit by the end of the summer out of sheer curiosity. Also, Terp's praising of Thunder Run is starting to become an itch I need to scratch. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RailRider Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 If you have the itch, scratch it this year. Next year may be too late. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron88stang Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 I was at the park Sunday with my family. One of the ride Ops on the Raging Rapids told another guest in my boat that the T3 delay was due to the "Train getting stuck in the loop with the water dummies"...I assume he meant it it valleyed. He may in fact be as reliable as the Dippin' Dots guy but I guess it could also explain the lack of a second train on the tracks, gotta get the first one through the course before we add a second. What would you do in that case? faster wheels? add weight? I also thought I saw a section of track missing from TT last weekend from the top of MHF but with no picture I did not want to mention it. I could not see it from the ground so there was no way to prove it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
