2022 Kings Island Season Passes Now On Sale
We are buying Kings Island passes this year instead of Coney passes. More value for us and more stuff to do at a cheaper price. We went ahead and got Platinum passes so that we can make a few long weekend trips up to Cedar Point! One question, do I have to print out the passes for the first time to take to park, or can I bring up the qr code on my phone from the receipt they sent me to get in the park?

Coney Island Cincinnati to remove all rides
My wife and I discuss this every year when it comes to passes for our family. Kings Islands is definitely the better deal, but as far as location (we are in Amelia) and the fact that my wife just wants to lay in the pool on a raft or hang out in the deep end of the pool, we ultimately choose Coney because there is no place for my wife to relax at KI in a pool.

Coney Island Cincinnati to remove all rides
Thats good to know. One of my favorite things about Coney is going there and just relaxing in the deep end and people watching. (not trying to be creepy lol)

Coney Island Cincinnati to remove all rides
Not to happy about this. I love the deep end of the pool to float, tread water and relax and get away from all the other people in the pool.

According to this thread from awhile ago, there are no such bans on flying over or around Kings Island, lol, funny thing is that WCPO is the reason for that thread also!

Pizza like La Rosa's?
Wish I could help you out there. It's pretty well known around Cincinnati that Larosas always taste better at Kings Island or at local festivals. Wife and I found out that if you order from Larosas and get it "well done" it taste nearly identical from Kings Island

I imagine that if they are wanting to do a big media event for the topping off they will wait till tomorrow or Thursday for that since most news outlets will be busy with election coverage today and results tomorrow.

Haunt 2019 Discussion
That would be awesome to watch. It's amazing how they transform some of these people into something totally different. On another note, there are tons of Youtube videos on special effects makeup and how some of the simplest house hold items can be used to create some crazy effects

Vortex Is Leaving After This Fall Season
Ditto, I was around the same age when I took my first ride. I remember standing in line and kept thinking to myself, "WTF am I getting ready to get myself into and getting ready to ride!!" I had very sweaty palms that time
