Awesome 1993 News Segment on What to Expect at the "New" Paramount's Kings Island
Blasphemy! Jr...who's Mother allowed him to go to bed early, set my alarm to watch midnight WWF every Saturday, then back to bed to get to Church on time. On a side note, I once met Cabot filming at a skatepark that I was a member of, he could not skateboard and insisted on dropping in on the halfpipe, we all kind of closed our eyes as he face planted, the guy has some guts. This was late 80's-early 90's?

Gold and Platinum Passholder ERT, Banshee and The Bat, May 9th
They surely wouldn't let several people get in line for Banshee right after the clock struck 10 pm on opening day, I even heard one yell at a kid who just walked to the fence. I would have prepared for opening day to allow riders an extra 20 minutes to get in line for Banshee considering the demand. It left a bad taste in my mouth watching the way they were turning people away.

Apparently, Line Jumping IS an Accepted Sporting Event at KI Now :)
Line jumping is not acceptable, just as driving over the speed limit isn't. Sometimes people get caught, sometimes they don't. Get over it.

Gold and Platinum Passholder ERT, Banshee and The Bat, May 9th
I can't wait. DB, then Beast right before close. Then hope the Banshee lines are short afterwards.

They got on top and inside of #Jonathan? How'd did they... O never mind.

Fast Lane Question
I have yet to meet a female named Jr. and the post your responding to is just not worth responding, some don't read the fine print.

Fast Lane Question
I rarely purchase Fastlane since I don't get deals for it on Fun Perks any longer, but it doesn't destroy my experience, if anything it enhances my experience. We have a Banshee and many added upgrades thanks to the money Fastlane helps generate the park. Some travel from across the country for a day at KI and I'm sure their over joyed they offer Fastlane so they can experience all the coasters in just one visit. This is a business, and it's thriving.

Your Banshee Experience
If we had the hour ERT back I would already be at the park, but they can keep the 30 minutes, not worth rushing to the park over. At least, not for us.

Fast Lane Question
Thanks for the advice but the wife and I always have stayed at CP or KI ( not last year do to pregnancy) during the Fourth of July and always have a blast and never any issues with crowds, then again it's our weekend away from screaming kids, so even if it gets crowded, it's nothing a Fastlane Plus, hotel room, and a cold beverage can't offset.

The Scrambler celebrates 45 years of spins and smiles

Big Tan Box
We know, but we also know where the topic leads into, and that's usually a quote from Don. Jr... trying to beat out post #18 fast! Just kidding Goble, I'll stop now.

Groundhog Day was a great movie, I'm betting on post 42 is when Don chimes in with his repeated quote on this subject.

Season Long Dining Plan
If my 3 year old and 5 year old were charged half price this deal would be a no brainer, and I take it that sharing with a toddler is a no-no, so still undecided for now.

Small things that need changed at Kings Island.
My grandparents( in their 80's) have collected McDonald's toys since they started adding toys. Needless to say, the toys today are garbage compared to what they were. It was a different time.

Diamondback vs. Banshee vs. The Beast
That's like asking me which one of my children I love the most, I love them all equal. O.k, not quite the same thing but I like all three rides for what they are.

Fast Lane Question
I've seen teenagers use what I think was Scotch tape do it right out in broad daylight in front of DB. These topics are usually best to avoid discussing. Why? You don't watch your nightly news much, do you? Nobody said it was the right thing to do, and I've seen teenagers do much,much worse, still doesn't make it right. Your not a lawyer, you just play one on T.V? Scratch that, on this forum?

Glitches?
We buy roughly 8 Gold passes every season, never had one problem.

You took the words right out of my mouth. I've seen teenagers use what I think was Scotch tape do it right out in broad daylight in front of DB.

Fast Lane Question
I haven't used Fastlane Plus yet this season, but when I do, I prefer Banshee. Sorry, It just popped in my small brain. Having had Fastlane passes in the past, I don't mind it at all anymore, it makes for such an awesome day in the park that I tend to forget how much money I just shelled out. I plan on buying it once this season at either KI or CP for the Fourth of July and I will gladly watch everyone ditch me in the meantime knowing my day is coming!

Why didn't KI send this in an e-mail, it saves a lot of confusion. You want me to buy something, give me some details! Thanks for posting.
