0-120 Posted April 8, 2004 Share Posted April 8, 2004 I've never been to PKI at night. Crazy as it sounds, I always finish everything I want to early on and then just want to leave. Which brings me to this... do you think it's worth staying the extra time to ride The Beast at night? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beastdude Posted April 8, 2004 Share Posted April 8, 2004 Absolutly without a doubt, The park is completly different at night. ( especially during fearfest). Stayat night once and you'll rarly leave early again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TopThrillDragster Posted April 8, 2004 Share Posted April 8, 2004 The Beast at night is like a copletely new coaster! Its so awesome and is worth the money you paid to get in to the park. Its a blast because you can barely see whast next! Its awesome! Son of Beast is also very intense at night! there is almost no lights on it at all! Vortex is fun at night too! But The Beast is great at night!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solid Snake Posted April 8, 2004 Share Posted April 8, 2004 For the three years that I have had a pass for King's Island, I don't recall ever riding The Beast at night. I guess it is because "we" are not patient people and don't feel like waiting in that line? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PKI Punk Posted April 8, 2004 Share Posted April 8, 2004 I guess it is because "we" are not patient people and don't feel like waiting in that line? No Solid Snake, "we" just never stay up there long enough to ride it at night. But "I" have ridden it several times at night. It is a great ride.

Scooby_Doo Posted April 9, 2004 Share Posted April 9, 2004 1 word....YES..... I never Leave the Park Until I have my Nightride on The Beast! I love The Park at Night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adbort Posted April 9, 2004 Share Posted April 9, 2004 I've never been to PKI at night. Crazy as it sounds, I always finish everything I want to early on and then just want to leave. Which brings me to this... do you think it's worth staying the extra time to ride The Beast at night? PKI at night is like a different park. Seeing the lights shinning and riding the rides at night. You just have to give it a try, you won't be sorry you did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StXBomber Posted April 9, 2004 Share Posted April 9, 2004 Aren't you on Beast crew this year? Don't worry, we will get you on at night very soon. And yes, it is worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SOB_TOM Posted April 9, 2004 Share Posted April 9, 2004 Without a doubt, ride it. It is unbelieveable. Anyone else remember riding Beast with NO lighting at all? Now that was a truely humbling experience. One minute, you can hear wind, the next you hear tunnel. Hey Snake, why do you fear me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PKI Homey Posted April 9, 2004 Share Posted April 9, 2004 The Beast actually seems as if it is going faster at night, IMO. This is one not to be missed at night. Next, I want to try a SOB night ride. I doubt it will be the same without the terrain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FSASBoxcarRace14 Posted April 9, 2004 Share Posted April 9, 2004 Maybe we could bring that back TOM. Beast at night is by far a ride sent down by God. It is heroic during the day, but legendary at night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterrz Posted April 9, 2004 Share Posted April 9, 2004 The best night ride I had on The Beast was during FearFest 2002. It was a cloudy moonless night. In addition to it being a little cool, a dense fog had set in and arond The Beast, especially by the double helix. Even though lights shine on the doouble helix at night, you could not see it because of all the fog. Those were some awesome night rides because the fog obscured some of the lights.

shadow2k3 Posted April 9, 2004 Share Posted April 9, 2004 Ooh.. reminds me of my first SOB nightride. There was a spooky mist around the middle of the coaster, and I think I grabbed my night ride just as the fireworks went off. After I went down the lift hill, I could barely see a thing. Both coasters are an entirely different experience in the dark. To be honest, The Beast should stay totally dark for thrill factor. Who's up for starting a petition to turn the lights off? ~S~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterbilly Posted April 10, 2004 Share Posted April 10, 2004 i would definitely join in making that petition . Seriously, i think my night ride on The Beast was the most unbelievable coaster experience out of every one i have ridden, and i've ridden 115 coasters. It is so amazing, it's something not to miss.

Which brings me to this... do you think it's worth staying the extra time to ride The Beast at night? Wow...I can't believe somebody actually asked that question. In response, a definitive "YES," no...make that an enthusiastic YES!! You ain't lived til you've had a night ride on The Beast. And leave while the park is still open?!?!? Shame on you!!

0-120 Posted April 10, 2004 Author Share Posted April 10, 2004 Haha ok ok I'll stay! The only problem I've had before is that my parents don't really feel like driving 25min at 10pm. But I'll tell them that they have to this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since then, I've noticed light pollution around the track -- YUK! I can remember TOTAL darkness on The Beast. And Flight of Fear. What the heck are you doing, PKI???? Get your act to-ge-tha!

0-120 Posted April 11, 2004 Author Share Posted April 11, 2004 I think my parents are actually like that because we do live that close to PKI that it makes it seem less significant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenGhost2003 Posted April 11, 2004 Share Posted April 11, 2004 PKI at night rules I love Riding The Beast at night and riding Delirium at night as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
