Cedar Point commercials and Ohio Staycations
True... but why not advertise the platinum pass for both parks instead of the more expensive CP pass?

Geauga Lake's 'Big Dipper' still there
A nice exciting wooden rollercoaster would be nice at Coney Island (on the river).

Cedar Point commercials and Ohio Staycations
In the last three hours, I've seen advertisements for Cedar Point passes on the local Cincinnati television channels. Now granted, I don't watch TV that often, but I've never seen any commercials for Cedar Point in the Cincinnati area before and now I've seen three. Also, I have heard an advertisement on a local radio station for "staycations" for Ohio and it mentions a three day vacation including a Cincinnati Reds game, a day at the Cincinnati Zoo and a day at Cedar Point. I thought this was strange since Kings Island would be the obvisous choice if you are vacationing in the Cincinnati area, wouldn't you agree? I don't think there is any "consipracy", I just think it's odd. Why do you think this is occurring?

What`s next for Son of Beast?
Perhaps this song is appropriate.

Fast Lane
I'm positive that there will be more options in the future..... Fast Lane is only the beginning!

Fast Lane
How about these ideas.... in addition to the $35 Fast Lane. How about Fast Lane + ? For an additional $50 dollars, you can ride all of the Fast Lane rides three times in a row without ever leaving your seat and one trip trip to the front of the line of any concession! How about Fast Lane ++ ? For an additional $100 you can ride any ride in the park indefinitely during the course of the day without ever having to leave the seat of the ride and have a reserved seat for every show in the park, in the front three rows of a the venue, plus unlimited trips to any concession, front of the line! How about Fast Lane +++? For an additional $200 dollars per family member, you and your family would be driven from ride, to show, to water park in a golf cart! And for that special feeling of family togetherness, rides would be evacuated and only you and your family would ride for as many times as you want! Total cost would obviously include admission, and the Fast Lane pass cost for a total of $438.99 per person.....reasonable, right? The possibilites are endless!

Kings Island: Cedar Fair's test park
The cost for a ticket doesn't seem like much of a savings. I bought a hamburger, fries and a drink in Festhaus for $12 something last year. Add a pretzel and thats $15 something.

Halloween Haunt 2012 Ideas
Busch Gardens in Florida had an upcharge haunted house called "Alone". I haven't read any reviews, but walking alone through a haunted attraction might be interesting and rather scary if done correctly.

NIghtmare Alley
KI needs to close some of the pathways to force people through some spaces to create new "scare zone" pathways. Its much more cool when the actors blend in with the crowds and sneak up on people.

Season pass sales blitz - Marketing experts please chime in
It all depends. I spent $5.00 in all of my visits. Water tastes fine, and there are plenty of options to eat outside of the park and beyond.

NIghtmare Alley
It is what a scare zone should be. At Busch, Cedar Point and Universal, the scare zones are paths between mazes that are themed and the actors blend in with the crowds. Kind of like a maze without the wait. I thought Nightmare Alley was cool and I hope they add more zones like it in the future.

Fast Lane
“It’s all about earnings and how can parks make more money. If this makes money, they’ll keep it,” Mr. Speigel said. Hmm. I thought Mr. O said it was about the guest experience.
