The Bat vs The Banshee
Banshee logo just seems cartoonish...I tell you what

The Bat vs The Banshee
The Bat's logo is 10X better than Banshee. The banshe has her arms out and hands open like shes saying "Ta-Da!" or "Its Fabolous!" Not very scary. The roller coaster tail is pretty cool but thats about it.

Do Not Give Out Free Things
Yea but if Seaworld parks chooses to not press or press charges, does that not affect wheither or not the Commonwealth of Virgina prosecutes?

Do Not Give Out Free Things
With all the money that the parks get from you, payiing for parking is ridiculous, seeing how they never pave it (KI), its hard for me to hate on this kid. Personally I feel like he should be fired no felony charged. Technically is it stealing but come on, kinda petty to try and convict for this. I think hes dumb for doing it but I also think the punishment should fit the crime. IMO of couse and im sure Bucsh Gardens will make an example of him, which is what this is really about.

What ride would you remove from Kings Island?
I have gave this some thought since my Anti-AE stance. I would remove Both Log rides. First build all new log ride in or near Soak City. Second In the place of both log rides would be a monorail stations that would connect Action Zone and River town. If the removal of "Race For Your Life Charlie Brown" is unpopular simpley move it to Soak City and sell Congo Falls to the highest bidder.

What ride would you remove from Kings Island?
You'd remove the second biggest people eater after Banshee? You must like long lines at Beast and Vortex. Besides, there's more that can make a ride entertaining than just forcefulness. Even if you personally can't enjoy the coaster, perhaps you could catch up on your reading? Have you handed in your Kings Island fan card yet? I agree with you on Backlot. No need to insult me on my idea.

What ride would you remove from Kings Island?
Adventure Express, doing so would make room for another coaster maybe a giga.

The Bat flies again at Kings Island
Maybe I dont get it. I just feel like The Bat deserves more respect than to rename an old existing ride to The Bat. I like the new Logo, I love the colors. The storied history of Kings Island should not include uncreativity and rehashing. You wont hear no more from me about it. Its just lots of other cool things it could had been themed. Don't get me wrong Ill ride it and Love it. I just hope somebody understands how I feel about our Kings Island.

Yea, then we can rename The Beast to Son of Beast. I would like the be paid a designer for the park, apparently all you have to do is rehash old ride names.

But Vortex and King Cobra are drastically different coasters, ditto with Backlot Stunt Coaster and Screamin' Demon. Bat and Flight Deck, however, are both suspended roller coasters. Therefore, the renaming works in the nod-to-history sense. It also works in the "spooky" sense, as The Bat will neighbor Banshee. Renaming Vortex to King Cobra and Backlot Stunt Coaster to Screamin' Demon would make little sense, while renaming Flight Deck to The Bat is a clever idea that will give an old attraction new life, as well as tie the ride into the area better and probably give a small boost to merchandise sales. Renaming great idea, I see your points, but what im saying is they promoted Banshee as a nod or a praise to removed coasters. They have the video of the tombstones, shows The Bat as one of the headstones. Kinda makes the who Banshee theme lame. That might be a stretch but it still doesnt make since.

I am prb one of the few that doesnt this. The Bat was retired, the intro video for Banshee shows its tombstone along with SOB, King Cobra ect. While they are at it, lets rename Vortex to King Cobra or Invertigo to Screaming Demon. I love the idea of renaming "Flight Deck", just not to a ride KI already had. IMO of course

Fail, while they are at it, lets rename Vortex to King Corbra. Backlot to Screaming Demon.

Trams?
Tram from Action Zone to River Town, would be awesome! I would trade not having to walk forever to go to Diamondback from Banshee for a parking lot anyday. In park tram, or I guess what I want is a monorail...hmm que the song. " Monorail What's it called? Monorail That's right! Monorail Monorail Monorail Monorail

From Atlanta, Heading to Kings Island This Weekend (Looking For Advice)
Things I have learned Fast Lane: Addictive Reds Hall of fame grill: Addictive Delerium: Fast Lane always gets you seats 1-2 unless fastlane has ppl in it. Skyflyer & Slingshot: Buy your tickets early and ride later Drop Tower: Thats its always scary Backlot Stunt Coaster: More fun than it looks Diamondback: Never gets old, hands and feet up is the best way to ride up. Pouring Rain = Pain Vortex..5th car 1st row = Less rough Racer & The Beast. Middle seat of any car.(not a wheel seat) Smoothest The Beast: I always feel like my head is going to get cut off, and at night is a whole other Beast Firehawk. Doesnt have bins and Last car (back of train) is awesome Flight of Fear: Hold your head back Flight Deck, Backlot, AE: Great coasters for beginners Also that basketballs are annoying, if you fast pass you will get dirty looks, scare actors target women and teens, and "that all clear means your guys are up and outta here" :-)

How is a coaster built in 1990 a "classic roller coaster"?

Vortex Is Sinking.
I will ride Vortex the same as I do now. I ride it on my way to beast and Diamondback, after i ride the ones in X-base. Then I ride it eveytime I pass it. Its not a ride I can ride over and over, but I do enjoy it, Banshee wont change that.
