Kings Islands New Sign is Up
If that's the case, I wouldn't expect it to look like KD's sign.

late 1970's footage on youtube
What would you think if I sang out of tune Would you stand up and walk out on me? Lend me your ears and I'll sing you a song And I'll try not to sing out of key Did anyone else think of the Wonder Years when they saw this?

'Paramount' Removed from Parking lot sign
Amen to that. That walkway was sweet. Easily one of my favorite parts of the park.

Trip Report for 10/14/2007
Man that lot was dead. Good trip. I can't ride The Beast more than two or three times in a row tops. Too much on the old body.

The Fate of LeSourdsville Lake/Americana
Seeing the park empty like that, it kind of seemed dead to me. I know parks have their off seasons, but seeing that and knowing that it would never be as it was, was very sad to me. Nice tribute.

"Rose Bowl"
Hey TransAm78, it was killer doing the rides with ya last night. Man we did a lot of wood! At the end of the day my count was 1 Racer 1 SOB(Last seat) and 4 Beast rides with the last 3 being right in a row! Am a little sore today but its all good! Hope to hook up with you guys again soon. I was there on the 4th as well, and I absolutely crushed rides that day. My count was 2 Racer, 1 SOB (front of blue train), and 4 Beast, also with the last 3 consecutively, I mean getting off the ride and right back in the queue. I definitely know how you feel, I was feeling pretty beat up, and I didn't fully recover until Monday. I learned a valuable lesson also, The Beast is fun, but riding it many times in a row isn't. IT HURTS. At one point I felt like I was going to break my right leg while I was in the right seat. Perhaps I wasn't situated in the seat correctly, but man did that hurt. I wasn't with the KI Central crew, but I hope to be next year.

"Rose Bowl"
Thanks folks. I'm going on the 4th, and I'll report back with a "report" if you will.

"Rose Bowl"
I'm still a bit new here, and I've been wondering, what exactly is the Rose Bowl, aside from the home stadium of UCLA?

Comfort Inn in Huron is a great deal. Close too.

Restraints on coasters for large individuals
Thanks. I definitely want to try and ride FOF the next time I go. I'm told the left rear seat has the most room for whatever reason, so I'll give it a go.

Restraints on coasters for large individuals
Cory, is that a standard rule? If you let us get you in, we'll get you in? I went to KI once and FOF crew was acting like it was my responsibility to get in there. I'm 6'5" so it was a tight fit, and I didn't get to ride because I got no assistance from the crew. The issue was my knees fitting under the restraint.

Beast Double Helix Tunnel
What will happen? Your hands will hurt. Don't do it. It's not worth it. Not IMO.

Flight Of Fear Lights On
Wow. I had no idea. I thought KI's FOF was totally unique. It's weird to be able to see the whole thing like that. The layout of both coasters is the same?

Firehawk On-Ride Photo
Here's my ORP. I think it's fairly funny. I'm on the far right in the Bengals jersey, girlfriend next to me, not sure who the other two people are. I just had to go "Superman" for my first time. Had a blast as you can tell.

Cedar Point 6/18-19/07
My sentiments exactly. I've ridden it before, but the first time I went this year, I decided to pass. I would much rather ride a ride like Power Tower.

Why was this not in the TR section? Just curious.

Is that a one trip only deal or can you go back as many times as you want? After all it is "All you can eat."
