XGatorHead 8904 Posted August 8, 2013 Posted August 8, 2013 http://www.wcpo.com/dpp/news/region_north_cincinnati/mason/parting-is-such-sweet-sorrow-9-rides-you-hated-to-see-leave-kings-island I just love #3: The Kenton Cove Sailboat Canal, which according to the article was removed to make room for The Beast, and features a picture of the old canoe ride. I must admit, I have no recollection of the Sailboat Canal. I clearly remember Kenton Cove Keelboat Canal, which was in no way, shape or form removed to make room for The Beast. Unless you call TR:TR a beast... 6 Quote

shark6495 Posted August 8, 2013 Posted August 8, 2013 Antique cars hurt me the most. It was the only ride I had memories of riding with my grandparents on. As a kid, I had hoped my future (now real) kids would get to ride with their grandparents... 6 Quote
Bennett Posted August 8, 2013 Posted August 8, 2013 Antique Cars, the Spinning Kegs, and, most of all the Flying Eagles. Still salty everytime I walk past the 3 point shoot. 8 Quote

Tanna Posted August 9, 2013 Posted August 9, 2013 I did love the Bavarian Beetle very much. It's not a large ride' as I recall, small kids could ride it. Perhaps maybe some day in Planet Snoopy. Quote
Coaster Addict Posted August 9, 2013 Posted August 9, 2013 I'm going with a lot of others and saying: Antique Cars, and Spongebob 3D. I wish my daughter could experience both of them. 1 Quote
