April 8, 200422 yr 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?
April 8, 200422 yr Absolutly without a doubt, The park is completly different at night. ( especially during fearfest). Stayat night once and you'll rarly leave early again.
April 8, 200422 yr 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!!!!
April 8, 200422 yr 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?
April 8, 200422 yr 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.
April 9, 200422 yr 1 word....YES..... I never Leave the Park Until I have my Nightride on The Beast! I love The Park at Night.

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.
April 9, 200422 yr 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.
April 9, 200422 yr 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?
April 9, 200422 yr 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.
April 9, 200422 yr 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.
April 9, 200422 yr 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.
April 9, 200422 yr 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~
April 10, 200422 yr 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!! LOL
April 10, 200422 yr Author 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.

That's it...I'm calling the Waaaaaaambulance! I drive 2 and a half hours THERE and 2 and a half hours BACK!!!!!! (I'm jealous! )

Who's up for starting a petition to turn the lights off? ~S~ I've been on nightrides on SoB where it was totally, totally dark on the back helix....you could NOT see the track in front of you---or anything else for that matter! 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!
April 11, 200422 yr Author I think my parents are actually like that because we do live that close to PKI that it makes it seem less significant.
April 11, 200422 yr PKI at night rules I love Riding The Beast at night and riding Delirium at night as well.
