Top Flight Back Deck

From Decoding: Enjoy it while you can I guess

Park is quiet. Eerily quiet. Minimal waits. Rain looks promising. Maybe. Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk

At KI or at CF in general?

I'd love to see something like that down here. I don't think KI has the target market for it perhaps, but they need something. I don't look at the fireworks at the end of the night. I'm either waiting in line, riding, or already leaving. With some Live E at Cedar Point, I've been staying way past park closing to enjoy the atmosphere. Music reviews need to go away, bring something new. That's my main gripe

Considering the content is the same I would expect the same. Food at KI at events wasn't stellar last year. I actually enjoyed eating at Reds or the typical amusement park food more than catered meals. That shouldn't have been the case.

I wash my car regularly during the summer, full details. I like the break in the winter of washing it once a month or so depending on salt/road grime.

Increase food quality and employee quality. This area seems so lackluster Better more appropriate live e. The singing has been terrible for years. The choreography is good. Musical numbers every year is getting predictably boring and unenthusiastic. Bring back an atmosphere to I street other than a place for food and shopping at the start & end to the day. Paint things, seriously. It's almost borderline neglect. I believe and know Cedar Fair knows what they're doing, but they do make me scratch my head here. Change the fireworks show. It's getting old Better night atmosphere. Cedar Point in the past few years has killed it in this department. Kings Island hasn't even stepped up at all in this field.

ERT is nice as usual and expected, but I agree with nothing new being slightly disappointing. I guess not everyone has ever been back through The Beast & whatnot, and that's a signature move for Kings Island to show off the largest wooden coaster ever and get some behind the scenes. However, it's old, it's been done ALOT. I got to take a few tours last year, it was pretty good, but I would't pay to do it again or make it a staple to go do. There's so much more at Kings Island I'd love to see, but surprised I've never seen them show it off. The day a tour down at the bottom end of Banshee becomes available, I'll jump all over it. But same food, speakers, and general idea, I'll pass this year as well.

All totally acceptable things too. Carowinds has every right to shine, and I think could even surpass the giants in the chain already. It can be a destination park. Fury drew others including myself there just for a new coaster. I'm sure that trend will continue for that park going into the future.

Cedar Point: Rides Record breaking, timeless, world class rides Atmosphere Perfect hotel/ammenities Beach Food Live Entertainment Kings Island Racer Banshee Beast I Street nostalgia Eiffel Tower Closer park for me I will gladly take the four hour drive to have a weekend at Cedar Point anyday. I always have a perfect weekend if the Point is involved

I've had some bad waits for food before, and some pathetic things like a bartender not having a bottle opener for a beer. However, it's cheap, easy, and filling. Plus it's consistency is at least a bit better than other places (Chicken Shack or Hanks for example)

Carowinds ia a fantastic park. It's becoming the Cedar Point park of the south. They're dropping a ton of money in the park there, and it's showing. Record numbers, new record breaking rides, and general park improvements all in a few short years. Big things will happen down there.

New coaster, great refurb wooden coaster, one of the best small coasters within the area. It's a good day trip, I'd recommend it. Just be advised the park is still new....and according to last year, you may be in the park before it's actual opening day

Are you talking Kenwood?

I ride rides to ride ride. Not to stare at a TV screen showing a CG world when I can view the world at 2XX feet in the air.

Reds, because I can get mediocre food and unlimited refills for the price of my all season pass.

That's funny then..because there isn't a Chick Fil A in Blue Ash... Reed Hartman..Glendale Milford? Where is it..oh Kemper, all the way up by 275 and 75 Or Montgomery Road..south

You seem upset that I feel Chick Fil A's perform at the same level as other restaurants. Drive through Blue Ash at lunchtime and tell me what has lines.

Have you tried turning it off & on again As someone in the field I hear ya.

They haven't, not yet. But I wouldn't be surprised if a reaction elsewhere in the chain does happen.

At Cedar Point their line wasn't always existent. Especially with a fantastic Nacho, turkey leg, & elephant ear stands within a 30 second or less walk. There's a burger joint very close, but I'd never recommend it. However, nothing in that park beats Chickies & Petes, the Beer Garden, Cheese on a Stick, or the parks catering this year. All have been absolutely fantastic.

I was just stating any restaurant during a lunch rush is busy, that's just how it always is.

I see that their drive thru and dining area are packed. I also see that Chipotle is packed and Chilis It's called lunch and dinner time, it's what a restaurant is supposed to do.

College Students want overpriced Chicken? *eats bowl of Ramen

The food isn't that good, customer service is usually bleh (ask for extra pickles, still get two). Also in terms of Chicken, other joints do it way better. Plus at Cedar Point, I don't care for stuff I get outside of the park, I go for Macho Nachos, Chickies & Petes, etc. I can get their crappy chicken on my lunch break whenever.
