You have disturbed the forbidden temple Don! Now you will pay!!!

I bought food at Ice Scream Zone yesterday, and the employee asked me if I had a gold pass for a 10% discount. Then she asked my two friends if they had gold passes, and I ended up getting 30% off my ice cream!

On the Kings Island website, which lists each ride's safety restraint type, Diamondback is only listed as having a lap bar. I doubt they would feel the need to add a seat belt anyway.

With any luck the old Club Blood building...

And you're humble too.

I always thought it would be cool to have a haunt named Phobia. Base it on common fears, have a section for spiders, snakes, 13, etc.

I have an idea. Let's be big boys and girls and take the extra second to hold the shift key. Honestly.

Can we move one of them to X-Base?

'Twas a different time. Believe it or not, back then, guests entering restricted areas was not a large concern for the park. I think that changed after the infamous Tower Johnny incident.

I know 4,424 feet is wrong, but I believe the park counts Surf Dog as a coaster, giving a total of 15.

How do you know? Just curious, I don't see it on KI's website. Edit: Never mind it's on Twitter. And yes, I'll be there.

Good thing another park re-opening in Kentucky doesn't have the same problems. Oh wait...

Do we need a School House Rock song about proper nouns?

I don't know if this has been posted elsewhere (it probably has) but Kings Island's website officially confirms that the height requirement on Banshee will be 52 inches. This is yet another way Banshee improves upon other inverted roller coasters (which typically have a 54 inch requirement). This news isn't too surprising though, since Gatekeeper, which has the same restraint system, also has a 52 inch requirement for riders.

Personally amazing, overall solid. This year included my first haunted house (and then four more the same night), the first coaster I speculated about, and my first roller coaster announcement. I had more visits than ever before. It was a great year for me at Kings Island, probably the best ever. Thanks Kings Island!

Wow, Banshee looks really good from Coney Mall! Consider me impressed. I like this ride more and more as it grows.

Will Banshee have its' own gift shop?

^^ I completely agree. I thought it seemed odd, but you never know.

So now we're getting a winged coaster called The Bat? I'm so confused.

Thanks, seems like I didn't miss much.

I missed the last thirty pages. Can I have a summary?

I seem to notice it on Vortex's restraints more than any other ride.

Or maybe the owl has no purpose in decoding and it's just there to throw us off. And there MAY not be a day this summer when the park announces what they are building for the future. If you can't get it right don't say it at all.

What would Cedar Point be without Shoot the Rapids? Oh wait... I seem to remember Mr. Kinzel stating Top Thrill Dragster was the worst decision of his career, so if anything he doesn't agree with you.

If you consider inflation, probably not.
