IndyGuy4KI Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 When you get an email in your work inbox and the subject is DB, you assume someone is emailing you to ask about Diamondback. Spoiler: It was nothing about DB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silver2005 Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 ^malem and I have a giant message thread (by giant, I mean we're on 16 pages now) between each other titled 'Holiwood Nights' back from when I was contemplating going either last year or the year before and 95% of the message thread is not about HWN except recently while we're getting plans to go this weekend.

jbeast Posted February 1, 2024 Share Posted February 1, 2024 Ha! that brings back some great memories as a kid. My grandparents lived in Woodlawn when I was growing up and there are some great road hills there. I'd be like faster, faster from the back seat and my grandma would gun it a bit over the hills for that classic dropping stomach feel! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OverlandTaxis30 Posted February 10, 2024 Share Posted February 10, 2024 When you can relate to how other population centers feel about their local theme parks. Such as when I visited Worlds of Fun in Kansas City last year. What Kings Island is to us, Worlds of Fun is to them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cornerstone, which is the employee cafeteria, is probably one of the coolest things I experienced as an employee. One of the most memorable things I did was ride on a parade float during Carnivale. There aren’t that many "cool" backstage areas—most of them just look like office buildings. Some of the storage areas are interesting but also kind of creepy. For employees who have been there a while, you can get your license and are allowed to drive in the park on the back roads. That was probably one of my favorite things to do. It was amazing to be able to drive a car under The Beast, Diamondback, Orion, and Banshee. I was a super privileged line cook and probably got away with more than any other cook. I don’t know of many cooks who were able to drive in the park—usually, that’s reserved for warehouse workers, supervisors, and team leads. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
