Personally still kicking myself in the butt, But on the better side of things, I will have the opportunity to do it in about 3 months when the park opens again. The Beast at night it probably my favorite ride ever! Last year, I rode it at about 10:30 after it had rained, and it was pitch black dark out on the track, the first drop and helix were covered in a misty fog, I was riding in the very back, could barely see, and it was magical. I don't think I'll ever forget it! Not to mention the fact that before we boarded they had to remove some raccoons from the track! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a young kid around 12 I just wasn't interested that much in them. Now as an adult I really miss them and the atmosphere they provided. I really miss these cars!! My son and I would have a blast on these today! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freaks76 Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 I've kinda been thinking about this one for a few days. And I just really can't think of many regrets when it comes to the park itself. Lots of i wishes? Yea. I wish I could have rode King Cobra more than I did (5 or 6). Wish I could've rode SOB. Really enjoyed KCKC. Love to take a couple more laps on it. Inevitably more changes will happen that will change my wish list one way or another. Time will tell. I can't complain about much though. Met some great folks, great times. Very much look forward to the future. The only real regret I have is not getting to take mom as I got older. When I was finally in a position in my life where I could have made that happen, it wasn't possible. She was the person who started the amusement park/coaster love I have. As much as she loved doin that for me 30+ years ago, it would have been nice to do it once for her. Nothing last forever. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingsislandfan1972 Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 I regret not taking more pictures of Kings Island throughout the years, if I did then I could have a lot of memories to look back on. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaiderLAS Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 (edited) I definitely regret deciding to not renew my gold pass after the 2012 season and falling away from the roller coaster scene for a while. Nothing surprised me more than when I got on YouTube a few months ago and found out that Colossus had been given the RMC treatment (yes I was extremely out of the loop haha). I also regret not getting more park maps during my visits to the park because I now have some large gaps throughout my collection.

LongLiveTheSmurfRide Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 I regret not going to any of the KIC meetups. I met a few people here a few years back at the opening day color 5K, but that's been it so far. The folks I did meet were pretty nice. Will try to look out for you guys this year. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KatieF Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 I regret not riding The Racer backwards, and I wish I had gotten the chance to ride Phantom Theater. I think the first time I had went to KI--it was already Scooby Doo themed. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a fun twist on traditional dueling coasters. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KatieF Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 I regret not going more often when the kids park was all Nickelodeon. I'm still a huge Nick fan, and I prefer it over Snoopy! I wish it was still there! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaggy Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 LOL, I bet I'll go down as the person with the biggest regret here... I opted to not ride The Bat. (the original) I watched it, but couldn't muster up the courage. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KIBeast Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Wow, I think that one takes the cake. I am sure that I rode The Bat (original) at least twice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bengals fan Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 I also never got to ride The Bat .I was in line when it stopped.after waiting 20 minutes I said I can ride next year when they have all the bugs out. The next visit it was SBNO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was obsessed with Rugrats in the 90's, so seeing Chuckie and Angelica through the park was very exciting for me. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshua Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 I never rode King Cobra and since I was born in 1985, I never got to experience many of the rides that were gone by the time I was able to ride the "grown up" coasters. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingsislandfan1972 Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 I regret not riding Phantom Theater more as a kid as well as Action Theater, (especially when I found out that the Funtastic World Of Hanna-Barbera briefly played there.)
