Old ride locations

Was Rotor re located at Kings Island? Just wondering. I was writing it down if it was

Yes, it certainly was, in what was then the Coney Island section (now Coney Mall).

Yes, Rotor was relocated in Kings Island... but not in Coney Mall. In 1972 and 1973, it was to the right of Bavarian Beetle, roughly where Delirium's queue is today. In 1974, to make way for Lion Country Safari, the ride was relocated to the left side of Bavarian Beetle, roughly in the spot between the Woodshop and Festhaus. While at Kings Island, however, it never operated outside of Oktoberfest.

And you are, of course, exactly right. What remains of Oktoberfest deceives the memory's thematic boundaries. At least mine. :)

Oh here's a gem I found! Okay I have one to ask! Where was the Cuddle Up tea cup ride? :)

Right where the Attitudes shop is next to the Laser Maze which coincidentally was the original Dogems attraction (right next to the Scrambler.

Whenever I'm in the Attitudes shop, I noticed some metal plating on the floor in some areas where concrete should be. Are those remnants from when they removed the Cuddle Up and put the Fascinations game in before Attitudes came?

It's hard to say. After Cuddle Up went away it became a Karaoke recording studio. On the left side of the building on the floor, there is kind of an angled marking and this I believe was where the payment counter was and further towards the back of the room was where the sound proof booths were located. That was a fun attraction. Would be fun to see that again. Somewhere in my house is a recoding I made of Jack and Diane... [emoji12]

I watched the episode of the Brady Bunch when they went to Kings Island, where was the location of the Canoe ride at?

Which one? [emoji12]

The Shawnee Landing... I think that was the name, had an entrance right where The Beast queue line ( the lower deck) is located and the lake circled around the lift hill area. The other ( I think called Kenton Cove was right where TRTR building is located. The lake went way back to the hillside by the valley.

What was a ride called "launch pad"?

 

Launch Pad was the park's Eurobungy trampoline ride.  It was an upcharge attraction.

Did you ride it?

There's something that's been slipping my memory regarding how Adventure Village looked.  What was in the center of the area before they filled it in with concrete and added the water tower?  I keep thinking there was some sort of amphitheater there.  Also, wasn't there a shop of some sort when you exited King Cobra?

 

Also- regarding the monorail- where did the track layout go?

Son of Beast took up much much more room than Banshee currently occupies. What is in the rest of the old SOB area?

Mostly wild, uneven terrain, right?
