Kings Island Regrets?
Not trying out The Flying Eagles when I had a chance in 2000 and 2001. I remember a little walking pass them, but didn't give it much thought, thinking it wasn't that exciting. If I'd had known then what I know now, that would have been one of the rides I woulda been on a lot! And also riding Les Taxis more!

I'm saying what's in the shed, maybe it will be themed to that? Show them cutting some wood up then have some vines and that tree guy in there attacking them?

What do you like the Most about KI?
I love going up the Eiffel Tower, get a really nice view of the park! Also love riding The Beast, The Racer, Banshee, Diamondback and The Monster! Cirque Imagine and Cirque Origins was nice to watch too! Pulling into the park and seeing it, you know you are going to have fun!

Yup looks like a lot of it is done, this looks great! Does that look like an arch right pass the truck and entrance? That would be nice too!

Kings Island 2017 Discussion Thread
I wonder if they are going to allow visitors if we have a Preview Night to ride Mystic Timber's? Or try to keep the secret in #whatsintheshed a mystery one more day.

The Blade talks with Cedar Fair chief about the future of FUN
I thought I read that cf had the chance to buy the land but turned it down. Imagine if they did, ki could have used that area for future development and expand, maybe a new themed area. I doubt this would ever happen but gwl could buy where ki inn used to be, and ki could repurchase that property for their new area, it would look nice to go along with the new entrance.

Things that KI can improve on
Would be nice to see more flat rides make a return, KI used to have so many! Here's the old Wheel of Fortune ride we used to have that's at DelGrosso's Amusement Park. Video by: Steven Royer

What are Kings Islands Plans after Mystic Timbers?
It would bring back some of the nostalgia feel to the park, and they look nice lighted up during the night. It does take awhile from what you said, loading and unloading, so thats one of the down sides. I wish we had a time machine!

What are Kings Islands Plans after Mystic Timbers?
The Sky Ride would look great where it used to be, might have to move a few things to make it fit I think it would be pretty popular, and look nice in pictures. A Ferris wheel like what was in Oktoberfest be a good idea. They could add a lot of new ideas or old.

Kings Island Has A New GM!
You guys may have seen the old Linder Room in the IR was being worked on during Haunt. That will be his new office. Heck of a view!! Where was his office at before that? Lovely view for Greg!

*If* Backlot Stunt Coaster was removed....
I like BLSC but I liked the Antique Cars/Les Taxis a lot more, and they went with the scenery. I'd like to keep blsc and move it to somewhere else in the park and put the car's back there and maybe another flat ride, but I don't think they'd do that since its about how much money at the end it takes and just to make it look better, they'd probably just put the Antique Car's somewhere else. I can hope!

They are moving right along! Anyone have any guess on how much more they still need to do? Maybe 50% of the bents are up?

Kings Island Has A New GM!
He has big shoes to fill that's for sure! It's going to be strange not seeing Greg at the park. I hope Mike keeps going with the things people like and want, and even add things we didn't know we wanted till they showed us, like with Mystic Timbers (I think). I wonder what this new chapter in KI history will bring us, I'm ready for it!!!

I didn't think it would add to the skyline of the park, since The Beast doesn't. But now thinking about it, The Beast is farther back and it's in the hilly area of the park, so that probably has something to do with it. It's going to be awesome seeing it done and driving in, for the first time next year on opening day.
