ThrillKingsFitzy Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Cedar Point has announced their 2020 additions. First up is the Lifetime Ticket. CP is doing a bunch of drawings where people can get a CP ticket that will let them into CP for free for the rest of their lives! That's awesome! Snake River Expedition is a new boat ride where riders will experience a one of a kind adventure with Trapper Dan! It will be a fun boat ride where you can experience things you can't experience at most theme parks. Celebrate 150 Spectacular will be a celebration that will happen every night, with cool floats, food, music, and other fun things! There will be a new town hall that will feature all of the park's history. https://www.cedarpoint.com/play/events/150th-anniversary More details on the link above! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoddaH1994 Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 The parade is exciting. Floats look really cool. Based on what they said about it I imagine it will follow they formula of the Carnivale parade. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KIghostguy Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Sounds like some great changes and additions! Snake River Expedition sounds very intriguing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThrillKingsFitzy Posted December 11, 2019 Author Share Posted December 11, 2019 I am fairly sure they will be celebrating more with more additions in 2021. But we have to wait for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MDMC01 Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 Good stuff! I really like the "Bands in Residence" program. Also, I wonder if Snake River Expedition will be tied into Forbidden Frontier at all. And where will it go? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

firstnline Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 I bought a brick and a mini brick. Hopefully they stay there for many years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flightoffear1996 Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 I was wanting to buy a brick thinking it would get placed in the park somewhere but it appears that they just ship them to you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastersRZ Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 I thought that, based on the press conference they had yesterday, that the bricks would be placed in the park. Per the below link, the bricks will be placed along the main midway. https://www.cedarpoint.com/play/events/150th-anniversary/guest-experiences Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Ding Dong Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 The $30 mini-brick is a “replica” you get to keep. Must order the big one as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JubJester Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 I'm dissapointed they took out Pink's. Was easily a guest favorite (saw a lot of backlash on social media). Replacing it with a mac and cheese bar makes no senses, especially given the fact it was the one of few Pinks on this side of the United States.

CoastersRZ Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 They likely had to pay a licensing fee of some kind (or a percentage of sales) to Pink`s. That is likely why they opted to remove it. Higher profit margin potential for the Mac and Cheese bar. Not to mention those that have had the Mac and cheese bar at KI when they have had it have loved it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we have to wait for that. I’m thinking the “big” ride will be in 2021. If they added a coaster this year, they’d be expected to top it next year for the second half of their celebration. Seems like they have a great lineup for next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teenageninja Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 I'm kinda curious if they might get in trouble for the name, because Keystone in Cincinnati owns Mac Shack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThrillKingsFitzy Posted December 13, 2019 Author Share Posted December 13, 2019 I think in 2021 CP should get one of those Chance Rides Hyperlites or a Chance Rides family coaster like slime streak that opened this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndyGuy4KI Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 It looks like CP is going to have live bands for the 2020 season. https://www.wtol.com/mobile/article/news/local/cedar-point-searching-for-bands-to-perform-at-park-for-2020-season/512-a47dc155-a203-4cc1-820f-dab9aa03339f 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Ding Dong Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 We should start a KIC band. @silver2005 you game? I will play the cowbell. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silver2005 Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 ^Only if we begin our sets with this. @King Ding Dong, start practicing that choreography. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Ding Dong Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 Will do. Can we play Rawhide? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silver2005 Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 We have a lock on piano via @pianoman and a bona fide OSU worthy trombone player in @Ride On_17. Still need a tenor and/or bari sax, trumpet, guitar, bass (electric or double), drums/2nd cowbell, 1 or 2 singers, and a 3rd cowbell part. @IndyGuy4KI and @malem can be band managers and the rest of KIC are the groupies. There is a discussion to be made for @VortexBFForever or @stashua123 for marketing, but will be discussed at a future date. #KICmusicshenanigans 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silver2005 Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 I'm not sure I'd even want to play at CP. None of their remaining music locations are all that great. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Ding Dong Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 Stop thinking so small. CP will build us a stage on top of Dragster*. We will officially hold the world record for The Tallest Band in The World. Of course we will only hold that record for a short time until SF does it with Ka and Kanye. *Its not like anyone take note that Dragster is down for a whole week, that's normal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MDMC01 Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 If this becomes a thing, I would gladly be the roadie! Seriously, I've roadied* for many bands while in high school and college and enjoyed it. In the past, I've set up for Newsboys/Seventh Day Slumber, For King and Country, Brandon Heath and more (mostly local bands though). However, that being said, I would feel very nervous bringing equipment up to the top of TTD... *The gigs were unpaid, but I wasn't doing it for the money. However, I did get a free "Head Roadie" T-shirt out of it while in college! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
