=Frantic= Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 What do u guys think that the best all around park is. Not based on just rides. Everything, Food, shops, coasters, employees, cleanliness, fun factor and so on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koaster King Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 1. Paramount's Kings Island 2. Six Flags Great America 3. Hersheypark 4. Busch Gardens Williamsburg 5. Disneyland The only thing missing from Kings Island to be a "perfect park" would be a major non-looping steel coaster and maybe better shows and a a full-service restaurant. Including Boomerang Bay in admission is a major plus for me. Six Flags Great America doesn't have any indoor coasters or major rides to escape the rain or heat from in the summer. Unless I missed it, they could use a full-service restaurant. Hersheypark is lacking on the major indoor coasters and attractions as well. They have fantastic shows and a fun atmosphere. Great wood and steel are covered, but a nice big non-looping steelie would be nice. BGW- where's the wood? They're lacking in the quantity of rides dept., but they're a hardcore quality park, so it's hard to leave unsatisfied. Disneyland is missing the wood and doesn't have a lot of thrills. I think they're perfect in the rest of the above though. +Danny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanA Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 Actually, I heard awhile back that PKI was looking into creating a full service sit down restaraunt, so maybe we'll see that happen sometime soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PKI Homey Posted July 22, 2004 Share Posted July 22, 2004 They also really need a place for people to stay on premises. I'd like to see a full service restaurant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PKI Punk Posted July 22, 2004 Share Posted July 22, 2004 1. Universal Studios and IOA 2. Cedar Point 3. Disney World 4. Busch Gargens Williamsburg 5. Dollywood Why is Dollywood on my list? Two major reasons...Thunderhead and great park atmosphere. The things that keeps PKI off the list are a major steel coaster and a great "themed" atmosphere. All other parks have UNBELIEVABLE atmosphere, except CP, but they make up for it in GREAT coasters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThatGuyInTheEmporium Posted August 2, 2004 Share Posted August 2, 2004 PKI used to have a five star restaurant. International Restaurant. It was located above the front gate. Look up before you exit PKI, the crystal chandeliers are still hanging up. From what I've heard, Pete Rose, Marge Schott, Jerry Springer, and various other celebrities ate there a lot.

Tanner Posted August 2, 2004 Share Posted August 2, 2004 For park cleanliness I'll say Cedar Point hands down. Never seen a cleaner park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FamousLastWords Posted August 3, 2004 Share Posted August 3, 2004 Universal Studios and IOA. I love movie themed rides. Can't wait to ride Revenge of the Mummy and I hope "The new PKI ride that nobody knows about" will be at least half as good as the rides they have there.

m@ilman Posted August 6, 2004 Share Posted August 6, 2004 For park cleanliness I'll say Cedar Point hands down. Never seen a cleaner park. I have to disagree with you on that..but I agree, they run a pretty clean park. The cleanest park I have seen, and made NUMEROUS comments on our trip there, has to be Holiday World...next time you are there...and if you spot some trash, its probably becasue you also see someone picking it up and throwing it away... m@ilman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PKI Punk Posted August 6, 2004 Share Posted August 6, 2004 I have to agree, HW is by far the cleanest park I have ever been to, followed by CP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
