so today i went out to the caesars creek flea market, and found some interesting Kings Island memorabilia... a The Beast pin with the logo, which still had the old Kings Island sticker on the back, 89 cents. also, a very interesting button. it has the same The Beast logo, and says i rode it! at the top, and then at the bottom a small Kings Island original logo. it has a copyright of 1979 on the rim of the button. i want to know wen you could get the button, like was it something for the opening year only or could you get it for a few seasons? i really cant find any info on it. i also found a blue yogi bear in teh middle with the original Kings Island logo button as well. it was pretty neat.

Those are the Buttons I've gotten off ebay and at TraderWorld

that yogi one is the one i have, but The Beast one is not. mine is the size of the yogi one, and has more black on the outer section of it because of that. ill have to post pics of the buttons. heh, i only payed 25 cents a piece for them and just wanna know what they are worth. they look pretty neat to me, especially the i rode The Beast one. now if only it was a i rode The Bat...

25 CENTS!!! I payed 9 Bucks for that yogi one!

lol yup, 25 cents a piece, for all 3 it cost me a whole 75 cents! sorry heh yeah i guess i just got lucky. i just wonder if my i rode it The Beast button was from the original year or not... it seemed interesting.

Is the Yogi and Beast "rode it " same size?

yup. all 3 are the same size.

Well thats really good because I havent got my Vortex/KingCobra buttons yet and was wondering if they were the same size as Yogi and Fred.

Are you going to Post a picture?

^I did get this pin a couple weekends ago for 2 bucks

as soon as i find my digital, i will upload a picture. lol i cant find it, think my sis has it.

Edit: found it. here are the pics.

Those are really neat, I'd buy them from you

Is the yogi one white or is it actualy brown?

whoah! i just noticed that too, heh my digital camera sucks, but yeah its shades of blue, yours is brown. so they are different. but yeah, yogi is light shades of blue, not brown like yours. this pin is from 1981, unlike The Beast ones which are from 1979 at least from the copyright...
