What If Viacom Moved Pki Far From Ohio?

[italianchef]

Here is a very fictional question. What if Viacom wanted to get out of Ohio and took all the rides, employee, etc. out of Mason and moved PKI to a far off state, such as Massachusetts? The land would be used for NON-amusment purposes. Hence the only "amusement" and "water" parks in Greater Cincinnati would be The Beach Water Park and Coney Island. Some of us live in Greater Cincinnati. Other of us live close to CP and SFWOA. My question is that if PKI left Ohio....how would your life change???????

I would be very, very sad if that happened. I do make it a point to visit Coney Island and The Beach Water Park at least once a year because I am a freelance travel writer. W/o PKI.......I'd visit both more often, as well as the Cincinnati Art Musem which would make Mrs. Chef very happy because she is more cultured than me. Plus, I'd make visits to Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom an annual event.

However.....I'd miss PKI very much and be quite sad. What about the rest of you?

Have an outstandingly groovy day!

Hey Chef,

If they decided to move PKI anywhere within the continental United States (and it remained the same) I would still go. However, since we're dreaming here, if they were to move it about 300 miles Northwest, like to Chicago - I would be ecstatic!

If the idea is, what could replace PKI in the Cinncinati area for amusement/recreation, being a foreigner I don't really know. I really liked the zoo, Coney Island looks really quaint - I like the whole area from what I've seen. This summer I saw the same concert at Tweeter here and at the Riverbend there and I prefer the Riverbend by far, no contest.

But PKI is much more than just another amusement park, especially to those of us with a long history of great memories there...it has that "it" that you can't describe but other parks don't have. I could drive 30 minutes and go to Six Flags Great America any day but it does very little for me - doesn't even compare to PKI.

So, it's a little different for me. I never went to PKI because it was my local park, I already travel a good distance, so if they packed it up and moved it I'd still go.
