Kings Island Yearly Attendance Since 1972

It would be interesting to see other seasonal park's attendance data % compared to each other.  Due to amount of operating days varying from park to park, the % increases/ decreases by year would be more "telling".

If KI attendance figures followed the metro population of the area

I have no idea what you're trying to "prove" at this point, but pointing out that KI's attendance didn't exactly track the area's population growth doesn't achieve that. I could also cherry-pick data to "prove" an obviously-wrong point (The debut of Diamondback led to a 4% decrease in YOY attendance. Clearly installing coasters is a bad idea! ) The point is, there is a clear trend line of sustained attendance growth even if we can point to individual years where the data fluctuates. And that attendance growth trend is finite and constrained by, among many other things, regional population.

By all means, show me the metrics that support your claims.
