JubJester Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 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. 2 Quote
The Interpreter Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 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. 7 Quote
The Interpreter Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 Burgers? Okay. Fries? No way. Quantity does not substitute for quality. 3 Quote

Spectrum91 Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 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. 3 Quote
MysticsTimber Posted March 4, 2015 Posted March 4, 2015 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 3 Quote
Delirium13 Posted March 4, 2015 Posted March 4, 2015 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. 2 Quote
MysticsTimber Posted March 4, 2015 Posted March 4, 2015 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.

MantisMan Posted March 4, 2015 Posted March 4, 2015 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 6 Quote
MysticsTimber Posted March 5, 2015 Posted March 5, 2015 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/ 11 Quote
Imperial79 Posted March 5, 2015 Posted March 5, 2015 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. 5 Quote
MDMC01 Posted March 5, 2015 Posted March 5, 2015 That is a great picture, IamaBanshee; and I thank you for doing this countdown! 4 Quote
zacc1993 Posted March 6, 2015 Posted March 6, 2015 Love that picture^^ and the countdown. The color schemes are way different but they honestly complement one another so well. 3 Quote
TheBEASTunchained Posted March 6, 2015 Posted March 6, 2015 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! 6 Quote
Italian Job 2005 Posted March 6, 2015 Posted March 6, 2015 Is there a post somewhere about the new Season Pass Benefit Portal? I just discovered the portal myself when browsing their website yesterday. Quote

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. 4 Quote
coasterfanatic83 Posted March 6, 2015 Posted March 6, 2015 That image on the most recent countdown photo became on of my favorite views in the park last year. 3 Quote
malem Posted March 6, 2015 Posted March 6, 2015 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 9 Quote

Interesting... 3 Quote
Spectrum91 Posted March 7, 2015 Posted March 7, 2015 ^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... 3 Quote

BloodBlade21 Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 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. 9 Quote
MysticsTimber Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 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!!
