March 3, 201511 yr The give you so many fries. If I do get them I usually have to split them with a friend for two reasons: - Don't want to get too full where I have to wait a while to ride a ride. - It isn't good for you.
March 3, 201511 yr Oh, they don't give them to you. You paid for them, and how. See also Five Guys Burgers And Fries And Fries And Fries, And Still More Fries.

March 3, 201511 yr That Rivertown time lapse just made me think of something- When did LaRosa's and Potato Works first grace Rivertown? The Rivertown LaRosa's opened in 1973 as "Pizza Shop". Rivertown Potato Works opened sometime between 1975 and 1978.
March 4, 201511 yr Here's an article tweeted by @KingsIslandPR on Twitter on how Banshee motivated a little girl. http://dailyadvocate.com/news/health/152114448/Amusement-park-motivates-girl Link to tweet: https://twitter.com/kingsislandpr/status/573092250797907968
March 4, 201511 yr Burgers? Okay. Fries? No way. Quantity does not substitute for quality. Glad to know I am not the only one who feels that way about their fries. My friends acted like I was crazy when I said I didn't like them. I tried the Cajun fries, but that still didn't do anything for me. I love their burgers, but they can hold the fries.
March 4, 201511 yr Hello fellow KIC'ers!! We may get a lot of snow here in the next day or so but next week, temperatures will be in the 50's! You know what that means... Opening Day is getting closer and closer everyday!! To be exact, we are down to 44 days until the big day!! Stay safe everyone! Edit made by me.

March 4, 201511 yr Have any more details been announced regarding the Season Passholder preview night? I was curious if I had missed something, because it seems that I haven't heard much about that since last year...... I was wondering the same thing. Does anyone know any details? Kings Island@KingsIslandPR Preview Night for those who renewed their season pass by the November 6 deadline is April 17. More details to come. https://twitter.com/KingsIslandPR/status/572932205468651520
March 5, 201511 yr Ugh, are you sick of snow? Yeah me too. But here's a warm thought... We are down to 43 days until Opening Day!! Edit made by me. Original photo: http://behindthethrills.com/2014/04/after-31-years-the-bat-returns-to-kings-island/
March 5, 201511 yr I just noticed while looking at the Banshee Webcam that we can watch the construction of the new Coca-Cola Marketplace as well! Just passing that along if anyone else wants to watch.
March 6, 201511 yr Love that picture^^ and the countdown. The color schemes are way different but they honestly complement one another so well.
March 6, 201511 yr I was just sitting here thinking..........(When you have the off-season blues, that's what you do!) In 2015 Diamondback will be operating for it's seventh season at the park!...... Wow.....Just wow! Time sure does fly!
March 6, 201511 yr Is there a post somewhere about the new Season Pass Benefit Portal? I just discovered the portal myself when browsing their website yesterday.
March 6, 201511 yr I was just sitting here thinking..........(When you have the off-season blues, that's what you do!) In 2015 Diamondback will be operating for it's seventh season at the park!...... Wow.....Just wow! Time sure does fly! Reading this post made me think I was in the 'You Know It's The Offseason When...' thread. I then momentarilly thought that every other post on the page was completely off topic.
March 6, 201511 yr That image on the most recent countdown photo became on of my favorite views in the park last year.
March 6, 201511 yr The park map for this season has been released: https://www.visitkingsisland.com/plan-a-visit/park-map For those trying to compare it pixel-for-pixel with 2014's map: http://belle.zzxc.net/fun/mapanimation.gif
March 7, 201511 yr The park map for this season has been released: https://www.visitkingsisland.com/plan-a-visit/park-map For those trying to compare it pixel-for-pixel with 2014's map: http://belle.zzxc.net/fun/mapanimation.gif In comparing the two I found that the picture of the water fountain mountain thing in Tower Gardens on the 2014 map is not pictured on the 2015 map. Interesting...
March 7, 201511 yr ^It's been off since, what, 2009? Demolishing that eyesore is the next best thing to fixing it. And based off the park's trend of fixing or removing things (reference the Festhaus clock), I think most of us can guess which the park is more likely to do...

And based off the park's trend of fixing or removing things (reference the Festhaus clock), I think most of us can guess which the park is more likely to do... Only leads me to wonder what may go in its place. *cough*antique cars*cough*Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
March 8, 201511 yr More seating for Ohio's largest smoking section. disclaimer: I don't know if it's really the largest smoking section
March 9, 201511 yr Hmm, don't remember seeing this before... Kings Island Drone Policy All drones (Unmanned Aerial Systems) are prohibited at (in) all Cedar Fair parks, including Kings Island, and any unauthorized drone(s) observed over Kings Island will be reported to the FAA and local law enforcement, regardless of its point of origin or operation. Drones may pose a potential safety risk and may violate Federal Aviation Administration guidelines. (https://www.visitkingsisland.com/plan-a-visit/frequently-asked-questions) Seems that drones are all the rage right now.
March 9, 201511 yr Thank you guys so much for liking the countdown to Opening Day thing I'm doing. It's been fun doing this and helps the offseason go by faster! Now back to the countdown... Hey, look outside! Snow is melting and temperatures are getting warmer. You know what that means... Well yes it means that snow is melting and temperatures are getting warmer but it also means that we are getting closer to Opening Day! How close you may ask? 39 days my friends!!
