Man, I hope that wasn’t intentional. Because if it is, that’s super weak. Edit: Spelling error. Duh.

Kings Island 2023 Food News and Reviews
Bad news from Grain and Grill. Hopefully they can get it together for next season. Your mileage may vary.

Rick Bastrup Book Coming Soon!
Super hyped for this.

Kings Island NEW Adventure Express POV COMING WEDS!
I still think it’s appropriate for social media to focus on Adventure Port.

Kings Island NEW Adventure Express POV COMING WEDS!
Or, alternatively, the social media team is sharing relevant information regarding an attraction that was recently overhauled for their 2023 capital investment?

2023 Live Entertainment Discussions
Don’t know about next year, but per the Season Passholder’s Facebook group the turnout for the final show drew lines that reached back towards Delirium. I think the popularity could justify a third run.

Here’s to hoping for a few more years of PT Encore. Wish I could’ve made it up for the last show today. (also, here to hoping for more PT in the future, but I digress..)

How Much Longer For Boo Blasters On Boo Hill?
Rode BBoBH tonight. Looking remarkably rough. Audio was out for a lot of the ride and the audio that was playing was kind of distorted. Odd. Time for a refresh!

If Phantom Theater came back..
I can wait another year.

KIC: The Event | 8.4.07 Badge
Here’s a fun throwback I found at my parents house tonight after dinner. Certainly doesn’t like that long ago, does it? I remember taking pictures of Flight of Fear with a disposable camera. Haha. The sign shop tour was my favorite. Who else was there? I went to the other one in the 2010’s as well. I miss these events.

Should Cedar Fair incorporate NFC, and use a system similar to magic bands like at Disney?
In theory, yes. But I don’t think they have the ability to manage a system like that.

If Phantom Theater came back..
Certainly don’t hate this, though there’s just something about the physicality of non-screen based dark rides that make them more memorable. That said, I don’t think screen based tech is going anywhere anytime soon. This is really cool and I’d love to see something like this make it’s way to the park.

KI Questions that keep you up at night
You know, I’ve yet to see the new fountains do anything remarkably impressive that justifies the change, in my opinion. I definitely miss how impressive the old fountains were. I love the new IS, but would take the old fountains back in a heartbeat. Throwback to a favorite solo trip back in August 2018.

This is completely absurd and I love it.

National Carousel Day!
We’re truly spoiled with such a piece of history. Think my wife and I are going to make the trip up after to work to give it a spin.

What would be one thing you’d change operations wise?
This one’s a bit of a personal pet peeve, but… Man. Just staff the Antique Autos properly. Last three trips my wife and I have tried to ride. A 20 minute wait quickly turns into 45 minutes because they have like, 2 operators and 3/4 of the cars off-track. Dude, I just wanna drive some cars.

2023 Halloween Haunt Discussion
Hahahahahahahaha. Iit’s funny to think that they think that making this event a separate ticket will work. What the hell is going on? -beastfan11, looking at his 2024 pass renewal a lot closer.
