familyman Posted February 6, 2005 Posted February 6, 2005 I will be checking out the IJST. If it is still under construction at least we can get close to it. Then it’s off to the mother of all rides, Da Beast! Quote
Pirate of PKI Posted February 6, 2005 Posted February 6, 2005 I like their steak hoggies You took the words right out of my mouth. Quote
Jasper Posted February 6, 2005 Author Posted February 6, 2005 They should open a classic section of the park and bring back all of those rides they took out. Quote
TRTR Guy Posted February 6, 2005 Posted February 6, 2005 There are reasons why they took rides out of the park, so I don't think they'd bring them back anytime soon. Quote
familyman Posted February 7, 2005 Posted February 7, 2005 I bet they bring back the flyers rethemed of course if they expand Nick Central. Quote
FOF/Z 4-ever Posted February 7, 2005 Posted February 7, 2005 that would be cool, but i doubt it very seriously. Quote
AZ Kinda Guy Posted February 7, 2005 Posted February 7, 2005 I bet they bring back the flyers rethemed of course if they expand Nick Central. Bet they don't! Quote
CYoung2003 Posted February 7, 2005 Posted February 7, 2005 I bet they bring back King Cobra and re-theme it to the parking lot! Quote
Legend Rider Posted February 7, 2005 Posted February 7, 2005 Eagles... No, Cobra... No Look, these arent coming back, as much as I hate to say it, Its true... I wish I could have ridden King Cobra, and I wish I had some more fun on the birds... Oh well... *sigh* [/pain] Quote
Jasper Posted February 7, 2005 Author Posted February 7, 2005 King Cobra isn't really gone its just taken apart and lying in a field where some crappy park will buy it to get attention and they won't and it will be SBNO for the rest of the next ten years. Never mind it's pratically gone. Quote
TheRickster Posted February 7, 2005 Posted February 7, 2005 My guess is it'll be rebuilt in the parking lot. As fencing. Quote
FOF/Z 4-ever Posted February 8, 2005 Posted February 8, 2005 Nah, it will just sit behind FOF or in FOF and just collect dust forever Quote
BoddaH1994 Posted February 8, 2005 Posted February 8, 2005 King Cobra isn't really gone its just taken apart and lying in a field where some crappy park will buy it to get attention and they won't and it will be SBNO for the rest of the next ten years. Never mind it's pratically gone. The sad part is, you're probably right. It has happened before. Quote
Jasper Posted February 9, 2005 Author Posted February 9, 2005 It sucks to see the first stand up coaster in America sitting and picking up dust. Quote
goodtimes Posted February 10, 2005 Posted February 10, 2005 All I know is the first thing i'll be doing is coming in on my first off day and hitting up the monorail all the way to the Lion Country Safari Quote
Scooby_Doo Posted February 10, 2005 Posted February 10, 2005 Yeah Iam gonna hang out with Yogi Bear and Scooby Doo at PKI Quote
CoastersNSich Posted February 11, 2005 Posted February 11, 2005 All I know is the first thing i'll be doing is coming in on my first off day and hitting up the monorail all the way to the Lion Country Safari I'll join ya! I feel silly going all the way to Las Vegas earlier this week to ride their new monorail. Quote
familyman Posted February 11, 2005 Posted February 11, 2005 Any thoughts on creating a special PKI Central T shirt for opening day with something to do with IJST on it? Just a thought. I am this close to getting the PKI Central Thong..any bets yet? Bribes on not to wear it? Quote
Jasper Posted February 11, 2005 Author Posted February 11, 2005 I am still going to hit Flight Commander first. Quote
LongLiveTheSmurfRide Posted February 11, 2005 Posted February 11, 2005 I bet you can't guess what I'd like to ride when I get there. I would like to see some pictures of the Enchanted Voyage before the Smurfs moved in there. My parents say that I rode it when I was little but it was taken out when I was 3, so I totally don't remember it. I was in the Smurf generation. Quote
Scooby_Doo Posted February 11, 2005 Posted February 11, 2005 So was I my friend,I would love to see some pictures of PKI in the 80's but when I get to the park the first thing Iam riding in Scooby Doo and the haunted castel. Quote
LongLiveTheSmurfRide Posted February 11, 2005 Posted February 11, 2005 I've got some pictures from us (brothers and I) at Kings Island in the early 80's when I was little. Well, my mom has most of them anyway. I don't know if they show anything truly special. The rides I can think of that I'm riding in them off hand are still there, though painted and themed differently. Like the flying things at Hanna Barbara Land which I believe used to be themed to the Jetsons, not sure if they still are now. And I have a couple of me riding that little ride tucked in the back where it's just some seats that are moved in a line then flung around a turn then down the line on the otherside and flung around again. Have no idea what that one is called, if it even has a name. Quote
King Bowser Posted February 11, 2005 Posted February 11, 2005 Ah fun times,good times I am gonna ride The Beast opening day. Quote
Jasper Posted February 12, 2005 Author Posted February 12, 2005 I don't think I am going to be able to be there on opening day because i have school. That makes me mad. Quote
