BoddaH1994 Posted August 22, 2006 Posted August 22, 2006 Since the regular season is drawing to an end, I'm just curious as to how many times you visited this season. Put me down for around 20 thus far. Fearfest is still on the horizon!! Quote
Peej Posted August 22, 2006 Posted August 22, 2006 I lost count a long time ago, but it's gotta be around twenty for me too. I could count my number of "major" rides (counting multiple times on the same ride, of course) on a single hand, with maybe just a few extra fingers. Despite this low number, I did gleefully experience Flight of Fear, Vortex, Face/Off, and Drop Zone, all for the first time this year. I almost always went with my two younger brothers, so Nick Universe was my most frequented area (no regrets), second only to the Paramount Theatre: I only missed School of Rock once--completely by accident, and it darn near killed me. I plan to go twice more, Wednesday and Sunday, and I might attend FearFest. So, when do they re-open? Quote

Reon Posted August 22, 2006 Posted August 22, 2006 I visited a grand total of 6 times. I usually go more, but college and ride-opping kind of cut into my coasting season....Oh well. I got my 19 laps on Vortex, and that's all that matters in the end. Quote
beastbreakdown Posted August 22, 2006 Posted August 22, 2006 Thanks to my commitment to football, which ment lifting every mon,wed,fri, and the start of the season august 3rd, I only got to go up 4 times this summer which is a huge bummer. Hopefully I can find time to go up during fearfest. -Chris Quote
TheKlockster Posted August 22, 2006 Posted August 22, 2006 I probably only went 25 times - compared to 90-100 last year. Quote
PKIVortex Posted August 22, 2006 Posted August 22, 2006 I've been 8 times so far. I hope to go a few more times though before the end of the season. Quote
TOPGUN1993 Posted August 22, 2006 Posted August 22, 2006 I have been 18 times this year and we go about every week during Fear Fest. Quote
pkiboy Posted August 22, 2006 Posted August 22, 2006 Evertime they scan your pass a number appers so that may help how many times you have been in the park this year. Little hint . Quote
beastbreakdown Posted August 22, 2006 Posted August 22, 2006 I probably only went 25 times - compared to 90-100 last year. Wow 90-100 time in one year!! Klockster I <3 you, I wish I could make it up there that many times; if I could I would live in the park -Chris Quote
PKIVortex Posted August 22, 2006 Posted August 22, 2006 I probably only went 25 times - compared to 90-100 last year. Wow 90-100 time in one year!! Klockster I <3 you, I wish I could make it up there that many times; if I could I would live in the park -Chris Well he did work their LOL. Quote
beastbreakdown Posted August 22, 2006 Posted August 22, 2006 Lol well that would make since. I think I'm going to look into working up there next season if I dont play football next year. -Chris Quote
TheKlockster Posted August 22, 2006 Posted August 22, 2006 Yeah I practically did live there but it was fun. Latest I ever stayed in the park was 2:45 am. Quote
italianchef Posted August 22, 2006 Posted August 22, 2006 Only 12 times AND COUNTING so far. It's been hard to find friends to go with and I can only take my family so many times. I hope to hit there again before the end of the summer....and at least twice in October. Have a great day! Italian Chef Quote
coastergirl Posted August 23, 2006 Posted August 23, 2006 We have been to the park 6 times this year but the best is yet to come!! FEARFEST!! That is my favorite time in the park. We have 1 more trip planned for this weekend and then a few more for fearfest. Quote
cstrwomann Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 I visited one weekend in May, July, and one day in September and I plan to go a few more times in October. I would like to say 10-13 days. I live rather far away and don't get to go that often. Also one of my favorite coasters is down so why go? Quote
Avatar Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 I asked the kind Customer Srevice Representative at the ticket gate if she could see how many times we have came this year so far. Her reply was, "this is your 18th visit to Paramount Kings Island this year, have a great day". Quote
marlfox_21 Posted September 1, 2006 Posted September 1, 2006 When I drove back to Ohio from Florida, I went to the park 1 time. I would go again this year for WinterFest when I return to Ohio again for Christmas, but it looks like I will be going to The Beach Waterpark's "HolidayFest" instead. Since the plug on WinterFest was pulled. Not that there is anything wrong with that. "HolidayFest" is really nice to go to. I will probably go to the Cincinnati Zoo's "Festival of Lights" and the Columbus Zoo's "LightFest" during my time in Ohio as well. ( Depending on road conditions.) Quote
King Bowser Posted September 1, 2006 Posted September 1, 2006 Well I didnt visit very much this year due to gas prices its a long haul from my home to KI and back.I'm looking forward to going to FearFest and Nick or Treat this year but I honestly dont like FearFeast after the stinker that was 2003's FearFest I never went again ...until this year I will give it another shot I went last year and walked around the park but that was mostly it I left early because I became bored. I hope the funtastic world of Hanna-Barbera returns next year I would love to ride it again of course I could always go to Kentucky Kingdom and ride it but thats a little too far. Quote

Avatar Posted September 2, 2006 Posted September 2, 2006 and after this weekend add two more. how much is to much!! Quote
CoastersRZ Posted September 2, 2006 Posted September 2, 2006 I`ve only been there 14 times this year. Taking 16 credit hours at UC in the summer, and working sporadic weekends at Coney doesn`t leave much time for KI. Heck, this weekend, I will spend 21 hours in the next two days at Coney, and have Monday for Kings Island! Quote

You're really missing out. After the bomb that was 2003, it has improved greatly. Quote
kikevin Posted September 2, 2006 Posted September 2, 2006 I'd say about 10-15, I had a great summer at PKI Quote
PKI Foodguy Posted September 2, 2006 Posted September 2, 2006 ZERO... for the first time in my entire life. I moved to chicago this year and I've been to Great America at least 15 times. Quote
The Interpreter Posted September 2, 2006 Posted September 2, 2006 How would you compare Great America to Kings Island? Quote
