coasterville Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 Surprised I haven't seen this here yet (or maybe I'm not looking in the right spot) I was looking over the park guide I picked up on my way out of the park Sunday night. (I still grab them and look over them, nomatter how many times I have gone to the park). In the "Upcoming Special Events" block under the calendar, there is an advertisement for "Xtended Play!" which promises late night (8pm-midnight) riding and 'celebrity' DJ music on selected Friday nights in June and July. The advertisement also mentions that a $5 extra charge will apply for Xtended Play! It also states that admission for Xtended Play is restricted to those park guests aged 16 or above. I also noted the operating calendar shows the park open till midnight on two of those nights, and 10pm the other nights. Anybody have any more details on this 'event'? (Quote from PKI park guide) Xtended Play! - A special event from 8pm till midnight. With an incredible DJ mix off and our most popular rides ready to roll, we'll keep you kickin; on the dance floor and screamin' through the air! IF you're 16 or over, rock out with us at Xtended Play!. Additional $5 Xtended Play! admission required. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beastfreak Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 I believe this is restricted to only certain areas of the park. I've known that it was going to "be available" but didn't know more about it or when. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterrz Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 That is very interesting. It will be interesting to see what this new program involves and how it works out. I was wandering why the park would be open until midnight on some Friday nights in June. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StXBomber Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 And would ya guess it, I work a close that night! Oh well, at least it's not an AD with a midnight closing... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shman Posted May 26, 2004 Share Posted May 26, 2004 The only additional info that I have is that the event will take place mainly in Action Zone + Bubba Gumps. Also the celebrity D.J.s include D.J. Scribble from M.T.V.; 50cent's D.J.; Eminem's D.J. and another who I forget. Plus there is supposed to be a battle of local D.J.s as well.

Return_of_Yogi Posted May 26, 2004 Share Posted May 26, 2004 sounds nice SHman......i might have to go to this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shman Posted May 26, 2004 Share Posted May 26, 2004 I'm not too sure how easy it is going to be for employes to "sneek" into this one. I have heard the possiblities of wristbands being assigned to those who have paid their extra admission.....but then again it is only $5 (i think.....)

UntamedBeast Posted May 26, 2004 Share Posted May 26, 2004 theres a video game channel G4 that has a show called xtended play... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StXBomber Posted May 27, 2004 Share Posted May 27, 2004 Question, what does that have to do with this Xtended play? Yeah, I have G4 and I watch it, but that has nothing to do with PKI, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaotichazard Posted May 28, 2004 Share Posted May 28, 2004 WHy does it have to be restricted to 16 and older? *grumbles to self* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beastfreak Posted May 29, 2004 Share Posted May 29, 2004 Because most people under 16 don't have some sort of identification card. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoddaH1994 Posted May 29, 2004 Share Posted May 29, 2004 ^ That's true, but it's also a matter of appropriation. I mean, we know what kind of activity and dancing goes on at a dance club. It's really not a place for a 12 year old to be. They're just trying to keep the right events with the right age groups. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeliriumDreamer Posted May 29, 2004 Share Posted May 29, 2004 I might go, as long as I'm not working. I like the idea, and 5 dollars sounds pretty reasonable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZ Kinda Guy Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 Any employee going to this seems silly. Why pay the five bucks when you can get in for free the day before or after? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dxrunner Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 Sounds like an in the making version of Grad night again.... 16 and older isnt good when they are out in large groups at night... trust me im 17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Losing Streak Posted June 1, 2004 Share Posted June 1, 2004 Any employee going to this seems silly. Why pay the five bucks when you can get in for free the day before or after? for the environment maybe? sure you have the same park all 3 days, but on that second day, said employee gets to hear a dj mix off and not have little kids around. Not important to me, but somebody will care. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dxrunner Posted June 15, 2004 Share Posted June 15, 2004 Ummmm what day are these Xtended play things again? I would like to go to one if I am not working Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
