Just drove by and it looks like the lower section of the larger support is in. I'll try to get pics on my way back.

Decoding 2020
I'd be happy with any giga. However, if that is the true layout I'd be disappointed only because of how much room they have to work with. I do understand they have a budget though. Hopefully we'll see some more clearing today. I should note that on 5/7 I did spy a tree truck on the Banshee cam dumping mulch from the back of the truck. They were coming from the direction of the current clearing. Then I saw 2 trucks leaving out towards the new dorms. I read on a past page that there was a rumor we were supposed to get a giga in 2014 but went with inverted instead. That was the first I've heard of that but I wonder if the leaked plan was for that giga. It would've required Firehawk to have been taken out then so I'm not so sure about it. I do believe the plan is legit and professionally done but I'm not sold that it's for 2020.

Decoding 2020
I believe it was 2 different screen shots done from a phone and 1 was zoomed in farther than the other. I was able to edit the pic with Paint to expand the right side up and down to get everything to line up correctly. I still have my doubts about it but honestly, I really don't know what to think at this point.

After only sleeping for a half hour last night we got to the park around 4 and waited. I was fortunate enough to notice Coaster Crew's window only had one person in line so we immediately hopped in that line and got our freebies. We were given our credentials, a t-shirt, on-ride photo voucher, and a glass block with Banshee etched in it. There was probably about 10 people in front of us in line and we got on the second train that left the station, I was told the first had all media. We rode front row for ride #2 at 6:30 and I think my face was literally frozen. But as others have said, the back is where its at. IMO the POV's do this ride no justice. It is absolutely amazing. Don, Greg, and the gang did an excellent job of putting this day together for all of us and I don't think they could have done a better job. Thanks Kings Island.- Banshee Construction Progress
I know its been mentioned before but I have seen any estimates. How many people do you think will be there tomorrow? A thousand, a few thousand, or several thousand? Any guesses?- Banshee Construction Progress

A few things I noticed while there. - Banshee obviously looks and sounds amazing. - handicap parking has been black topped. Every space is lined in blue and they were in the process of painting the handicap signs. -To all the Sprint customers, 4G has arrived at Kings Island. At least in the parking lot and at processing. I also snagged a park map.- Banshee Construction Progress
I just watched it test from preferred parking. Amazing- Banshee Construction Progress
I get my passes through a friend on a certain weekend towards the end of the year when they are offered at a much lower price. The only bad thing is we have to go get them processed every year.- Banshee Construction Progress
I'm taking the kids up today to get our passes processed. Would be awesome if she is testing while we're there.- Banshee Construction Progress
