DontWantToWait42mar0 Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 Several more years and Snoopy may be as inculcated in the hearts and minds of Kings Island lovers as Fred Flintstone once was. Doubt it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DontWantToWait42mar0 Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 Don't know if I'll ever be in the bland mascot market. Fred Flintstone pops Snoopy blends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MantisMan Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 Don't know if I'll ever be in the bland mascot market. I said the same thing until the birth of my daughter. Then all of a sudden they seemed very important. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magenta Lizard Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 YKItOSW, with less than a week to go, I transfer from anticipation and excitement, to panic that I've become too soft in the past few months to handle a day of hiking all over the park. And I still haven't found my stupid coin purse I like to carry smashed penny supplies in. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thrill_Biscuit Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 For me, KIC becomes Kings Island during the off-season. My mind goes to my favorite table at the Festhaus patio (the one with the perfect view of Delirium and Banshee, as well as seeing all the happy, amazed faces of new guests emerging from the canopy of the trees, all awestruck by their first views of those awesome KI rides), and the conversation and fellowship on this site bridges the long, winter months perfectly! 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VortexBFForever Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 ...when swimming season starts. There was a meeting during lunch today for those interested in swimming, and there's the winter sports meeting on Thursday. First practice of the season is November 9 at 7 p.m.; I will be starting my third year on the Xenia Christian varsity swim team. It makes the next four months go by a little more quickly (along with Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year's, my birthday, school musical auditions/rehearsals, and of course the Photo Contest!). 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
