PKIVortex Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 "The "Dinosaurs Alive" exhibit was scheduled to open Thursday". Wonder if this means this will delay the opening of this attraction? It says WAS and not IS? Makes ya wonder huh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdawg1998 Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 Wow. This is a really bad year for Kings Island, in terms of the events that have happened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PKIVortex Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 Wow. This is a really bad year for Kings Island, in terms of the events that have happened. What events do you talk about? Bad year? Winderseeker didn't open on time, how is that events? Just wondering what events your talkin about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 I almost hesitate to say this but there are those in creation who probably arkn't too upset about what has been wrought, but they have certain incentives to feel that way. The mere thought is quite taxing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WindSeeker not opening, earlier in the year a transformer fire, this fire, a lot of hate from people, bad start to the year (opening day)....so not really events, more of....yah, those.

Beast1979 Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 How does one manage to get an anamatronic dinosaur to catch fire, and two days before opening? I don't know whether to laugh, facepalm, or be worried. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dieseltech20 Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 So, while the kids enjoy watching the Dinos, the parents have to plot escape routes in case of fire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nhimes90 Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 So, while the kids enjoy watching the Dinos, the parents have to plot escape routes in case of fire. I don't know why, but that just made me laugh so much. I don't know whether it was made to funny or not. Brings a whole new meaning to Escape from Dino Isle.

Snowman Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 Is it a bad idea to yell "Fire" in a crowded Action Theater? "New addition to DA, Pete's Dragon, Elliot" Seriously, very glad no one was hurt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikejenkins1 Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 So will this ride be Extinct before it even opens? Wow self combustible dinos. Now I might pay $5 to see this! Hmm not a good start to the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
74Gibson Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 Probably just Kinzel's Karma. I love Cedar Fair parks though and am very excited about DA! and how nice the parks are looking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Creed Bratton Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 So will this ride be Extinct before it even opens? Wow self combustible dinos. Now I might pay $5 to see this! Hmm not a good start to the year. Depends on what you mean by ride. Dinosaurs Alive is not a ride but a walk through attraction. Talking with one of the DA Crew Members on Sunday, she will be driving a golf cart with seating for 6 around the attraction. This golf cart to my knowledge and her knowledge will be used for those with handicaps. Thank you Nemo for posting that video. I can't wait to ride one of these massive seekers of wind!

pyrocoasterkid Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 Look at this image I just happened to catch just a few minutes ago. It was gone when I refreshed the page a minute later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastersRZ Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Yes, it was a rather soggy day at the park. Some pictures will be posted on the site here soon from Dinosaurs Alive! In my opinion, it is well worth the $5 charge. The first time we went through, not taking time to read the signs or snap any pictures, it took us nearly fifty minutes to get through the entire thing! Now if only that pesky rain can stop! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flightoffear1996 Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 ^ Can you see any of the dinos from the rides or are the pretty much hidden? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastersRZ Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Well, other than the one that is right across the maintenance path from The Racer, they are all pretty much hidden from view from any rides, including the Eiffel Tower. And other than a few glimpses of The Racer, and WindSeeker, the only other indication of a ride that you will hear is Firehawk`s lift hill. All the trees and the topography back there definitely adds to the setting for the attraction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homestar92 Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Oh yeah...I bet CP's WindSeeker will cycle riders faster 'cause it's gonna hold TWICE as many riders as KI's WindSeeker! I actually heard while in line for Delirium a couple of weeks ago that maXair in CP holds 75 riders versus Delirium's 50. Banging.... Head..... On.....Que..... Rail! I know I'm replying to a very old post, but that's nothing. Oh the things I learn in queue lines. Apparently Top Gun once had floorless inverted cars. But they took them off because they derailed and killed a whole train of people. And also, The Beast had a loop. But that also got taken out when someone who wasn't buckled in well fell out. I love the GP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pagoda Gift Shop Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Someone reported over on pointbuzz that CP's WindSeeker tossed a dummy or two during testing yesterday. I'll be watching the webcams closely today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KI FANATIC 37 Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 ^ Wow, that makes me feel safe! Hahaha It shouldn't be much longer until WindSeeker opens. should it? And Another question, did DA open Thursday? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
