Shaggy Posted July 19, 2016 Posted July 19, 2016 You know, back in the day, you waited until the park put these out in the spring to find out what the new ride was.... 24 Quote
sikkinixx99 Posted July 19, 2016 Posted July 19, 2016 I always looked for that 1st commercial that aired every spring it was always exciting!! 9 Quote
medford Posted July 19, 2016 Posted July 19, 2016 You know, back in the day, you waited until the park put these out in the spring to find out what the new ride was.... Once upon a time they had part of the ride sitting by the front entrance to give you a glimpse. I distinctly remember the rafts from WWC out front one season (may have been during winterfest), perhaps part of a King Cobra train as well. 7 Quote

Oldschool75 Posted July 19, 2016 Posted July 19, 2016 Curious?? This is heading north on 71 between 275 and KI. Sent from my iOS 10 device I'm fairly certain that is heading south, past western row. That building on the left is fairly new, w/n the last couple of years. But yes, b/w KI & 275 Yep, sorry I saw the water tower on the right, there is a similar building on the left as you are heading north. lol 1 Quote

BeeastFarmer Posted July 19, 2016 Posted July 19, 2016 I know Snapchat is mostly used by the younger generation, but you would think that an official KI social media post would capitalize Kings Island. 2 Quote

KIfan73 Posted July 19, 2016 Posted July 19, 2016 Good grief.... FB, Twitter, Snapchat, blah blah blah... who can keep up with all 10 of the social media outlets the park is using? Us old folks aren't as savvy as you youngins.... LOL ;-) And a big thanks to everyone who is re-posting the content here for those of us who can't keep up! Very much appreciated !! I opened a Snapchat account just for this reason. Other than reading KI's Snapchats, I still have no idea how to use it! 7 Quote
TheBEASTunchained Posted July 19, 2016 Posted July 19, 2016 Is the RSVP for the event only for media outlets or can folks like us participate? ....TheBEASTunchained..... Asking a serious question...... 3 Quote
CoastersRZ Posted July 19, 2016 Posted July 19, 2016 So the question is, will the public be able to attend this announcement, or is it for working media only? 8 Quote
medford Posted July 19, 2016 Posted July 19, 2016 An awfully late announcement for a Thursday. Interesting. 9 Quote
KIfan73 Posted July 19, 2016 Posted July 19, 2016 Thursday 7/28 at 10pm. https://twitter.com/EvanMillward/status/755421486219988992 That looks like a '64 pickup they are using...the year that Kings Island was conceived (according to Wikipedia)...Origins????

Oldschool75 Posted July 19, 2016 Posted July 19, 2016 So the question is, will the public be able to attend this announcement, or is it for working media only? I would say the public would be allowed since it is at 10PM. Same thing they did with Banshee. 6 Quote
fryoj Posted July 19, 2016 Posted July 19, 2016 Yeah, not sure if the 64 chev is a real reference or just a "logging truck" 1 Quote
CoastersRZ Posted July 19, 2016 Posted July 19, 2016 But that is not guaranteed until the park confirms it. Past precedents does not always ring true for future events. 4 Quote
jentrye.white Posted July 19, 2016 Posted July 19, 2016 So I wonder if city of mason has the actual blueprints of the ride that the announcement is next Thursday Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337Z using Tapatalk 3 Quote

sixohdieselrage Posted July 19, 2016 Posted July 19, 2016 So, nature is taking over, yet they are cutting down more trees, and removing wilderness? I don't get it. lol Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk 13 Quote

dragsterguy21 Posted July 19, 2016 Posted July 19, 2016 I would imagine that this has to be a major thrill ride. This is getting teased more than Banshee was. That is the reason I am on team RMC. I think it will break the inversion record or something. Like I have said before. I trust Rob Decker (except Valravn, but alteast it looks great). 7 Quote
