If you could bring back ONE ride.....
I said Phantom Theater because I really enjoyed it when it was around. It was a though decision between that, Scooby Doo Ghoster Coaster (which after further thinking I thought it would be a dumb idea to bring back), and King Cobra.

Kings Island 2015 Discussion Thread
I decided to watch the time expire on the countdown for season passes for the heck of it. As soon as it hit zero seconds left the next thing I see is, "Sale extended 3 days". I laughed just a bit.

Current wait times
I use the webcams to determine how the lines are. If there is barely anyone in Woodstock Glider's line...it's a good sign that all lines are small.

Carowinds' Thunder Road to race no more
Really Carowinds? Really? Edit: I enjoyed the heck out of it when I went last year. Not understanding their logic, but... what can you do?

Boo Blasters on Boo Hill TLC
The scene of the tourist being chased worked for me this week. As well as the guy who pops out of the jar. I have only seen the skeletons in the bed come up once, and that was last year.

Current wait times
^ If you have the time could you give me a 2:00 p.m. - 3:00 p.m. report on the lines. It would be very much appreciated. Thinking about going up and enjoying a nice cool day.

Best Seats on Coasters
For Backlot, I would go either row 1 or 6. Row one has some decent airtime for that coaster in my opinion. The backrow throws you around a good amount. Speed feels the same in any row on the ride.

Your Woodstock Gliders Experience
I rode Woodstock Gliders over and over for about an hour last night during the ERT. I think I did get one small snap but outside of that I couldn't get it. I also got to see Ryan freak the ride ops out because they never saw someone snap them that good before. I really enjoyed the ride and I can't wait to go back and ride them again.

Rougarou Media Preview
Rougarou Media Preview was held last Friday (May 8th) beginning at 5:00 a.m. I was one of the 100 randomly selected people from the Winter Chill Out that took place in February. I took my Dad along with me since you could pick another person to go with. I went up the day before right after dinner (from Cincinnati) and arrived at Sandusky at 9:30 p.m. Woke up the next day at 4 in the morning to get ready for the day. I didn't take long to get ready because I knew thing I was going to was something special. We left the hotel at 4:30 and arrived at the park at 4:55 and began our walk to Rougarou. I could hear the roar of Rougarou from the car. Once we hit the area Rougarou is located we began to see a lot of news media (go figure ). We got in the line of people that were waiting to enter the entrance of Rougarou. I got to ride in the second train that went out once the line open. I rode Rougarou a total of 8 times that day and absolutely loved it. They did a very good job with the fog, light effects, sound effects, and the ride (of course). It was so cool hearing the noises and howls of Rougarou while on the ride and just looking at the ride. Here are a bunch of photos taken by me during the four hours I was there: I am working on putting a video together with the video I got from the event. I will post it here when I am done.

Guests Say The Darnest Things
I heard an idea to remove some of Vortex's track and replace it with new track (he stated track like Banshee's) to make it more smooth.

Just heard a ride operator say, "You can come back at 8:00 when the park closes to retrieve any lost articles.....if you find them." (This was at Adventure Express)

Coasterstock at Kings Island
You can go to imgur.com and upload an image there. You then use the URL it gives you (one of them), and put it in the box that pops up after you click the image button. (this way doesn't work on mobile)

Your Banshee Experience
I can't see them doing that to the front gate. Like you said, there isn't much room. Welcome to KIC!
