screamingnight Posted June 27, 2006 Posted June 27, 2006 I just looked at the front page carefully and I noticed on The Beast picutre. Now what I noticed was it said Kings Island on the train right above The Beast logo. Not Paramounts Kings Island. Has anyone else noticed this? Quote
PKIVortex Posted June 27, 2006 Posted June 27, 2006 It's always been like that. I don't think the front of The Beast ever said Paramount's Kings Island. Quote
screamingnight Posted June 27, 2006 Author Posted June 27, 2006 Oh!!! Im very sorry I posted this dumb post! Quote
Gordon Bombay Posted June 27, 2006 Posted June 27, 2006 It's always been like that. I don't think the front of The Beast ever said Paramount's Kings Island. You are correct sir. Quote
Jasper Posted June 27, 2006 Posted June 27, 2006 Yeah it has always been on there. i do not believe they need to spoil a world class coaster such as The Beast with the paramount name. Quote
PKIVortex Posted June 27, 2006 Posted June 27, 2006 Oh!!! Im very sorry I posted this dumb post! It's wasn't a stupid post. Don't be sorry. Quote
coaster-chickie Posted June 27, 2006 Posted June 27, 2006 ^ I agree! There is no such thing as a stupid post! Unless of course you say something totally irrevelant to the topic that you post in like..."I want pickles for lunch"...OMG I just quoted my science teacher Quote
screamingnight Posted June 27, 2006 Author Posted June 27, 2006 Oh ok thanks. I just always thought that they put the paramount name on every train at KI. I want pickles for lunch! Ha ha ha I`m just kidding. Quote
The Interpreter Posted June 27, 2006 Posted June 27, 2006 Pickles for lunch at KI? About 12 bucks, probably. Then again, some people filch them off the bar at Fest Haus, though technically that is stealing if you aren't garnishing your purchase! Perhaps CF will lower the food prices! Quote
Steveo3631 Posted June 28, 2006 Posted June 28, 2006 My favorite seat ever is 62 on Train 3. Best ride EVER! The worst, for me is seat 13 on any train! Quote
WooferBearATL Posted June 28, 2006 Posted June 28, 2006 Yeah it has always been on there. i do not believe they need to spoil a world class coaster such as The Beast with the paramount name. You Took The Words Out Of My Mouth. Quote
CoastersNSich Posted June 28, 2006 Posted June 28, 2006 True, it has never said "Paramount's Kings Island" on the front of The Beast trains. From 1979-92, the Kings Island logo was placed above The Beast logo. It was removed for the 1993 season, and no new PKI logo was put on it. In 1999, for the 20th Anniversary, some art was added to the front around the logo... Then around 2000 or 01, they placed the oval around The Beast logo, with "Kings Island" on the top of the oval. No "P" word - what you see now. Quote
CoastersNSich Posted June 28, 2006 Posted June 28, 2006 wheres is this picture at? The front page of PKICentral.com. Click on the word "home." Quote
Gordon Bombay Posted June 28, 2006 Posted June 28, 2006 My favorite seat ever is 62 on Train 3. Best ride EVER! The worst, for me is seat 13 on any train! 62 is a fantastic seat on any beast train, you do know that the numbers get changed around each year though dont you? What was train 2 last year is train 3 this year. Quote
Gordon Bombay Posted June 29, 2006 Posted June 29, 2006 Yeah it has always been on there. i do not believe they need to spoil a world class coaster such as The Beast with the paramount name. And how would having the companies name on it spoil it? Now if it was a pornogrpahic picture on the front, that might spoil it, but the logo does not affect the ride, if your going to comment on EVERY topic thats fine, but atleast make it an intelligent post please that contributes something.

Captain Nemo Posted June 29, 2006 Posted June 29, 2006 The Beast is as you know opened in 1979 and that was way before Paramount bought the park. The Manufacturer was Kings Island so the trains just had Kings Island on them. I would guess paramount when they bought the park kept the trains that way since it was still called Kings Island (only with the added Paramount), or it was to save money. If Cedar Fair continues to call it Kings Island I have no reason to think they will change the cars. Quote
Snake Attack! Posted June 29, 2006 Posted June 29, 2006 Now just wondering does The Racer have the Paramount name on it? Quote
The Interpreter Posted June 30, 2006 Posted June 30, 2006 no they still do Are you sure about that? Quote
