Hi fellow KI fans - I hope this is allowed here... I am posting this to give serious KI collectors the chance to own a piece of Kings Island History. I have had the pleasure of owning "Tag" the dog from KI's original dark ride "The Enchanted Voyage." This piece is in original working order and operated in the ride from 1972-1983. Since his time with me, he's been in storage, because I simply do not have room in my home to display him. I'd rather him go to a fellow KI enthusiast t

Kumba is preparing for its final roar at Busch Gardens Tampa Bay, with its last day of operation set for August 2 after an unforgettable 33-year run. When it debuted in 1993, the legendary coaster was Florida’s tallest, fastest and longest, while its towering vertical loop and signature roar helped make it one of the most celebrated roller coasters of its era. While fans will say goodbye to a true icon, the story isn’t ending. Busch Gardens has announced Kumba’s Revenge as part of a $100 million

St Louis Blues- silver2005's Missouri TR and Planning (and more)

silver2005 · March 30Mar 30

So alas, I have my summer schedule figured out. I am committing to a Missouri trip in late July, plus, I'll be including TR's for my CP and MIA trip, and hopefully I get myself to KK this season as well. This is the furthest west in the US I've been in a while. Everything in Missouri will be new to me, so, as always, tips are welcome. Here's the likely plan of things. CP and MIA- Leave Cincy 6/13, MIA on 6/14, go to Sandusky 6/15, CP on 6/16 and 6/17. Will be spending some ti

I regularly check the permit reports for Mason and I’m skipping past the 600,000 dollar haunted house investment, but I had to post about the Son of Beast station being condemned. Happy reading!

Kings Island Searches for Executive Chef

For Kings Island, I think it did. KD, Dorney and a few of the others were the parks that didn't get an "upgraded" Haunt but still attempted to charge.
People still bought at KI, CP, Cwland. I can't remember about Cwinds.
They may not have liked it, but they bought the mazes.

Hi fellow KI fans -
I hope this is allowed here...
I am posting this to give serious KI collectors the chance to own a piece of Kings Island History. I have had the pleasure of owning "Tag" the dog from KI's original dark ride "The Enchanted Voyage." This piece is in original working order and operated in the ride from 1972-1983. Since his time with me, he's been in storage, because I simply do not have room in my home to display him. I'd rather him go to a fellow KI enthusiast that can enjoy him so I have listed him on FB Marketplace. I'll link below. The amount I am asking is due to my desire of ensuring that whomever buys him will respect his provenance. I live in Louisville, so any interested parties would need to travel here to acquire him. Its a fun, piece!

Goodbye, Kumba

With BG parks having demolished and rehabbed coasters over the years, it will be fun to see what path they choose to take with Kumba. Will it get demolished and a new coaster be put up in it's place or will it get a complete overhaul of the tracks/new trains sort of like what they did for Nessie ( minus new trains on that one )? A third option of course could be that they keep the existing structure and modify it to be taller/longer/etc.
I just hope whatever is coming preserves the legacy of this coaster.

Goodbye, Kumba

It will be interesting to see what the new ride will be like.
Will it be highly immersive like other coaster additions in the area? Perhaps an indoor/ outdoor feature a la Tron?
