The Beast opened for the first time on Friday, April 13th, 1979. Today is really the 25th birthday for the ride. HAPPY B-DAY BEAST! Haha!

THE WHOLE RIDE IS THE BEST!!!

Actually it goes.... Attention Tomb Raiders, we are experiencing a technical delay. A team of experts is checking into the situation. As soon as its resolved, your adventure will continue. Haha, I heard that so much in 03!!

Welcome back Beast riders, how was your ride??? (CHEERING) When your train comes to a complete stop, plus push down and pull up on your lap bar and exit to the right. Thank you for riding the one, the only, legendary Beast and enjoy your day here at Paramount's Kings Island!

AMEN TO THAT DERRICK!!! I was have never been happier for a ride to be over. I still like SOB but it was pretty rough the day Derrick and I rode it.

Yeah that would be cool..... That would be the coolest thing if they would sell soundtracks of the ride music. I would pay anything for it. I have worked TRTR too much!!! haha!!! John I like your signature.

Sparky and the rest of the Delirium crew, you guys kick butt. I have never seen a problem with your crew. You guys keep up what you do. I guess people don't understand that after working 40+ hours every week doing the samething over and over again gets boring and to be able to do anything to keep entertained is remarkable. I dont care what you crew does, as long as they are safe, fast and efficent, WHICH THEY ARE, I am all for it.

Uhhhhh.........the money that is dropped down there.......lets just say even though the money gets put in the fund....I'd rather people not do that because it has to be cleaned up. Think about it as if you had to clean it up next time.

What makes you think anyone else would want your "life" any more than you would want theirs? John, you kill me. Always come out of the blue to say something. I thought it was a good one because I know you. At any rate, Delirium crew does their job well at least everytime I have seen them. Maybe, the have a side I havent seen???

Umm......I will give you that one. That employee was delt with and his actions do not count for the rest of the crew. There is always at least one bad apple in every tree. HAHA! Happy Off-season Everyone!!!

It will not be a flyer I will tell u that. A conversation with Jeff Siebert earlier this year tells me it not going to be flyer but I am positive a good size coasters is coming.

Haha, that to me is very funny because all the season pass holders and ACERs complained about paying extra for FearFest for three years. Well, now you dont have to pay extra and what happens??????????? You complain there are too many ppl. SUCK IT UP!!!! PKI is never going to be able to satisfy all you complainers!!!

As for PKD getting a giant top spin themed to TR:TR.......trust me, there will not be another giant top spin anytime soon, let a lone another TR:TR ride. But I do not look for their to be a themed or not themed giant top spin anytime soon.

Okay listen.....I have been to 2 of these Math and Science days and on both days, over 75% of the kids were gone before 5:30 or 6:00. They will leave at 6:00 at the lastest because they came on school busses which are scheduled to be back at a SPECIFIC time!!! Therefor, they have no option but to leave. YOU PEOPLE GRIPE WAY TOO MUCH!!! As I said after "Sneak Preview Night," I hope PKI decides not to do any of these things such as VIP night and Preview Night next year so we employees don't have to listen to you guys complain. But hey, that is just me and I am only one person.

Oh yes, Grad Night at PKI!!! Fun, fun, and more fun! I have worked at PKI for three years now and I have worked two Grad Nights. So, I will clarify some things for you. -You can get tickets through your high school or buy them the day of. Tickets are like $32 the day of. Yes, season pass holders must pay too! Do they check for a school ID??? To be honest, I am not sure. I heard you do have to have one. -HB is closed on Grad Night!! That will more than likely include SDATHC!! -Yes, radio stations do give out some tickets for it as they have for the past years. HOWEVER, its no big deal. -The past two years, Grad Night was moderately busy. Last year, the waits were ok. They weren't bad. -IF YOU DO GO, expect Security to be the tighest ever!!! PKI has had a lot of problems in previous years and they are very strict now. In fact, last year they would not open any Q-lines for any rides. They did this to keep people from being bunched up together. Thus, avoiding fights! So, basically the lines would back up on mid-ways horribly but it works. Grad Night is a lot of fun!!! If you are a senior, I suggest you go! I am a senior and will be in attendance as a guest this year.

Past Ride: Flight Commander Roller Coaster: Flight of Fear Kiddie Ride: SDATHC Major Flat: Tomb Raider: The Ride Small Flat: Shake, Rattle and Roll Water Ride: White Water Canyon Overall: Tomb Raider: The Ride

It should be ready to go for this weekend!!! At least, we are hoping!! Its a minor technical issue I believe, but they are making adjustments.

A lot of the problems with TR:TR's themeing trouble is the guest!!!! Guest are very distructive and damage everything they can! Its hard to keep up with what they damage in a season. WITH THAT SAID, I will say that some of the theming troubles could be fixed if PKI would keep up with it. During the offseason, they could have went through and fixed the smaller things, but I am sure they didn't. We will see if they let the theming go to heck, I know I sure hope not!!! TR:TR is a great ride, that if keep up will always impress people.

No where does it say that a park is supposed to provide benefits with a season pass. Most parks don't provide benefits, or at least to the degree PKI does. You need to realize that there are SO MANY other benefits with your season pass then just Friday night. As far as there were more than those just on here upset, well I will agree. There were other, not many though. As I was talking to many guest, most of them were very understanding. All I am saying is please realize that Preview night has always been the way it was this year. There have always been tickets handed out for it. No other year has it got as packed as this year but it has been somewhat busy before. There are 6 more months of PKI experinces for you. So dont get you pants in a tissy over this one problem. Everyone needs to be more understanding in my eyes.

I honestly think some of you peole could ruin a free meal!!! Oh by the way, it wasn't personaly Ffyrfyter, it was being honest. Sorry if you can't handle it. Also Losing Streak, I am not complaining about you complainers. I am stating a simple fact, you guys ruin everything for yourself! You want to make it a bad experience b/c you had to wait an hour for something, then dont get on here and complain about the fact the park did this, this and that and for that reason YOU had to wait an hour. Whatever, I don't care but some of you would make darn good critics. Well got to go. I am back off to where I live, REDNECK COUNTRY where we have no printed dictionaries and have to go to civilized country to use a computer.

I work at TR:TR and I know for a fact that they have been testing the ride for the past month. As someone said, testing before the season starts is way different then when the ride opens for the season. TR:TR was running perfectly fine when they were testing BUT when they put riders on it and there was more weight, the ride wasn't working well. I understand your frustration but KI is doing their best to iron out the problems. You have to remember that TR:TR is a Giant Top Spin. THE FIRST ONE EVER. So there are going to be problems. Sometimes more than others.

So.....because you had to wait a little longer and line....everyone is rednecks!!!! Haha...how dumb? You need not judge anyone b/c I am sure YOU ARE NOT PERFECT! So therefor, keep the redneck jokes to yourself. Sorry, it wasnt exclusive!!! My deepest apologies goes to you for you had to wait more than 5 minutes for something in the park. AGAIN I AM REALLY SORRY. Thanks for the definition of exclusive. Out in redneck country where I live, we dont have those things you high class civilized people call "dictionaries." I think that is what they are called, I aint sure though. Am I right Fyrfyter?????? I know you are a lot higher class than us "rednecks." AGAIN I AM SORRY FOR ANYONE WHO WAS DISAPPOINTED FRIDAY NIGHT!

The amout of complaining you people do, I hope we dont have a Preview night next year. PKI has a bad night last night, so what!!! We all have bad days and KI is not perfect. I swear it is like you people expect ERT on these Preview nights and Exclusive Pass Nights. Get a grip! Get over it!!! AND for any of you who said it has never been like this on Preview night, WRONG ANSWER. As my third year in the park, we have always been busy on Preview nights and rides DID have downtime. Sometimes I think you people expect KI to be perfect. I will apologize for KI for not being perfect!
