Current wait times
We stopped eating at chicken shack for these reasons and more. We found it was taking less time to get a wrap or burger from RHoFG than waiting for chicken shack (and the Saratoga chips are amazing!)!

No issues at rivertown or IS Larosas today for lines. No lines at Rivertown potato works either. It is a great day to be at the park. Could the weather be much better?

Friday was awesome. Perfect weather and Beast was the only thing with a wait. We didn't wait longer then 20 for any of the haunts either.

Cabana at Boomerang Bay and parking question
While it definitely wasn't cool the times I've had one, it definitely was more relaxing. My mom is older and really enjoys them.

Frisch's Big Boy: What Up?
Last time we went to Frisch's as a family of three, our bill was $34. Went to Wunderbar in Covington a couple weeks ago. Each adult had a beer, my daughter had a burger, and my husband and I each had a homemade sausage with a side. $36. Much, much better value!

Kings Island 2015 Discussion Thread
They ran it through several times right around 10 empty and once with a maintenance guy on it. My daughter and I rode it twice, brown train, row 14 and the rattle was AWFUL. I have never had a rough ride like that in DB. I'm wondering if it was a wheel issue?

I've gone the past couple of years and it's been joined with bring a friend. Honestly, the Sunday isn't crowded at all because of Riverfest!

Parking Violation
I'm with you on those spots, especially the rows with trash cans. Once they parked so close to me, I couldn't open my driver's door. I saw security shooing people away Memorial Day weekend but haven't seen it since.

Kings Island overall food concession experience 2015
Aside from one bad Reds Grille experience and the lady at Coney Mall telling me I had to pay extra for a chili cheese sandwich with my combo instead of a coney, its been great. I've expressed our positive experiences with guest relations and got an email back from the Reds Grille manager thanking us. We go tobthe park more and make more impulse purchases so they are making as much off of us with the dining plan as without it.

Does Kings Island's All Season Dining Plan Affect Other Businesses?
I've been overly impressed by our recent service at Reds Hall of Fame Grille. Their iced tea with free refills is my favorite "treat" in the park now. I don't do the drink cup so its a good value. We used to frequent the Skyline by The Beach but I agree with WindingSon. I don't want to go through the hassle of leaving for Skyline when the three way in the park is only $8.59 and enough food for three to split (if I didn't have the dining plan)

Does Kings Island's All Season Dining Plan Affect Other Businesses?
I've priced our per meal cost at about $2.30 with the meal plan. We bought the platinum one in the fall for $89. 40 meals between three parks and its been a steal!

Does Kings Island's All Season Dining Plan Affect Other Businesses?
We stop at Wendy's or McDonald's by Great Wolf fairly regularly after going to KI for ice cream. Their drive thru lines are usually a pretty long wait!

It's weird. Monday was completely dead. We walked on most everything but Firehawk and Flight of Fear. Yesterday, even Racer had a 10 minute wait.

August 7 is Rides Night for Gold passholders
The kid didn't want to wait for Beast so we marathoned DB. The crew was great and the ride awesome as usual. Hoping for more of these nights. We enjoy the ones at Cedar Point and this one at KI didn't disappoint!

Didn't get on Beast for ERT tonight but Diamondback's crew was rocking it!

White water canyon was only a 5 minute wait. I shot people while the kids rode. Best $5 ever spent! We are heading back for ERT tonight. Even one ride on each will be worth it!

To avoid the banging on Vortex, I push the restraint away from me, pinning myself against the back of the seat. My 57" daughter does the same with minimal banging
