  1. Do I sense the feeling of a trailer tower returning again, oh goodness.
  2. I hope he is half the man that Will Koch was. I heard nothing but GREAT, and I do mean GREAT things about Will Koch. Holiday World is a very well run park and after my first visit in August, I will be going back again.

    To me, that was one of the best theming elements on that whole ride. It is truly sad when one person, or two, have to ruin the experience for everyone else.

    Agreed that is hilarious. Does anyone remember back when Mr. Christopher got electrocuted in the video the lights would go off in the hangar? Whatever happened to all that?
  5. From a stand point of a visitor to the park, I would sat XSF is, due to all the checking of the restraints and the sheer hook ups that come with the job.
  6. Cedar Point also posted a picture on their Twitter account after Millennium Force won the election day poll over Top Thrill Dragster. Their Twitter said that this picture is TTD's concession speech. Have not fear, this was only a joke, this is an old construction pic.
  7. haha yes I was! that was me. haha ill guess next time ill have to show some affiliation with kic. its hard to match screennames with real faces! I am a fan of loudly blurting out KIC louder than normal and seeing who looks at me. I am pretty sure over half that train on The Beast was full of KIC'ers, including myself. I am also pretty sure that you rode in the very back, I actually skipped on the very back because I was gonna give it to someone who really wanted it, therefore you can thank me!
  8. When it comes to rumors going through the rumor mill, I prefer to devote my reading of sometimes false rumors to Screamscape. Over half the time they are reliable when they post something and I choose to believe them over wikipedia.
  9. On the topic of webcams, is anyone else having trouble viewing the Diamondback webcam, it will not bring up an image for me.
  10. It was quite the ride, as I remember I thought I spotted THE Tower Johnny in the woods, and it turned out to be an e-stop light. That was the first time for me that I have ever seen the fog on in the second tunnel, it was quite the experience. Even the devilish figure propped beside the track was quite the addition.
  11. ^I was merely joking. I have wondered this to myself though, would it even be safe to rub a train on those tracks where there has not been one ran in over a year?
  12. I love seeing people walking around aimlessly trying to find out how to ride, quote "That big ole wooden one." Maybe they should invest in the worlds biggest tarpolean and just put it over the whole track and on the outside put, coming soon. I have also noticed Flight Deck usually doesn't have as much of a crowd as it did when SOB was open. Occasionally you'll get a decent line, but other days it seems like it is always a walk on almost
  13. I have already given up on the park being not crowded, I got spoiled with 2 empty days at the park this month. That signifies to me that I'm due for a day where there are going to be crowds. I don't mind the crowds though, it adds to the atmosphere of the park, even though not waiting at all is pretty nice.
  14. I am pretty stoked about the daily operation beginning earlier because EKU usually let's out either late April or early May. This will give me a chance to get in some days at Thr park while everyone else is in school. I am a bit bummed about the later actual opening day, it just drags the off-season on that much longer.
  15. So pertaining to the opening of the park, any ideas on ERT rides? Do you think WindSeeker will be a ride included in the ERT where it's new? I know that this would most likely require the opening of BLSC, and Vortex as well as they would be right in the path the ERT'ers would take, but then again Thr Crypt is right between The Beast and Diamondback. I would love to see an addition to ERT, or vary up the rides on different days. Posted from my iPhone!!!!
  16. ^Negative fun factor meaning, it is more of a pain to ride than it is to have fun. As soon as you come out of the station around the turn you instantly know you are not going to have any fun.
  17. I will probably have to go with Predator at Darien Lake, I am not a big fan of Mean Streak, the fun factor is almost in the negatives for me.
  18. As of Sunday, I might have a new favorite meal in the park ad it rightly cheap. A potato works bucket of fries, with some barbecue sauce, it is quite the enjoyable meal for the right price. Add a free water in there and ride on Boo Blasters, I do declare you have yourself a lunch.
  19. I guess I will also have to include in my favorite memory, me and fighting31irish getting a fist pump from Gary Coleman on the last rides of The Beast, I felt as if my life was complete right then and there. Posted from my iPhone!!!
  20. I am finding it hard to fathom a 218 foot power dive at an angle of 79 degrees, that would be quite the drop on a coaster. I would hope they would re-profile and replace the area where the loop once was and give us something like a bunny hill or a section of track that actually provided an element of thrill.
  21. I wonder how long it would take a coaster with epic size like SOB, to get re-tracked. Being the second longest wooden roller coaster and going to the utmost extreme in terms of height.
  22. Pssh, what are you talking about? That ride's station is totally much cooler with those plywood walls around it. Haha that post literally made me laugh so hard. We all know they just don't want us to see that they are starting to re-track the inside of the station.
  23. What way do you come North or South on I71? I can answer that question for him, we...errr....he comes from south of Kings Island, through Cincinnati. Pass Kings Auto Mall, then there is the Warren County watertower, then the row of trees and after that the view of the park comes into sight.
  24. Judging by your signature, not near as many times as you. I like to think I have racked up a ride count in the triple digits though.

    Oh no, don't tell me were going for the Dispatch Master Transport theming of things, not Flight of Fear in 3D. Say it ain't so Cedar Fair!
