October 18, 200223 yr I was just wondering what everyone buys when they go to pki. I always go to the montomery inn place and get ribs or chicken wings. mmmm mmmmm good. And my collection of prizes is getting bigger too.(almost half my prizes are from h.b. land because I dont wanna lose)
October 19, 200223 yr Every Saturday and Sunday I got Fresh Cut Fries and Popcorn Chicken from Potato Works.
October 19, 200223 yr Shot glasses and some of the better Polo shirts, are the only things I ever buy from PKI. I wish I could find Polos that say Top Gun, on them. I only saw them at the store in AZ once, and then never saw them again.
October 20, 200223 yr Yesterday I got a orange visor that has "Paramonts Kings Islang PKI" on it. I love it.
October 20, 200223 yr That's cool, I didn't really get anything this year, since I'm so close I don't buy souviners.
October 25, 200223 yr I have really cut down on the souvenier buying this year. If anything, i bought a few shirts from my shop and maybe a few shotglasses. ~Shadow~
October 26, 200223 yr Author my dad buys shot glasses from there. I think he has almost every cool one they have.
October 27, 200223 yr My sister (24 year old not Lara_Croft) got an airbrushed tatoo and she says it hurts.
October 28, 200223 yr I always buy those big wall posters of a map of PKI. In other words, a big map thats ment to be a poster.
October 29, 200223 yr I really don't buy, many things from PKI's gift shops caus ethere prices are outrageous. I love Spongebob and all tehir spongebob stuff is way too over priced. Like i went into teh Nikelodeon store and saw a shirt for about 28 bucks and tehn I wnet to Target and i saw teh same shirt for 15. Why can't tehy lower prices? Also their candy is expensive too, meijer and cubs 's candy is cheaper by the pound. But everytime i got there i always get Dip n' dots and a park map. Park Maps are the best sovenior at any park, no matter where it is at! This is sort ofa soviner, but when my friends/family and I see soem gettin' them selves drawn as characteritures we stand behind teh artist and shake our heads, pretend to measure the perosn bein' draws head, and say things liek "their nose ain't that big or" look at those eyes!! It is really fun!!
November 10, 200223 yr I purchase the collectors cup and get a map of the park. I recently started collecting old maps off E-bay. I bought the 1972, 1982, and 1985 map to add to the ones I already have.
November 10, 200223 yr Well you see they have to make a profit off of stuff. Honestly people you should understand that they make more profit off of food and souveniers than they do off of admission. You just have to trust me on this one.
July 15, 200521 yr I traditionally buy shot glasses from parks, but I don't think I have one from PKI. One thing that I do want to get for my Wall of Shame is one of those metal Eiffel Tower statues.
July 15, 200521 yr I usually get one or two shot glasses each year from the park and I collect shot glasses from everywhere, I have 60 now I think.
July 16, 200521 yr I always get shot glasses. My little cousin always goes home with like 17 basketballs. Jennifer
July 16, 200521 yr I will buy a sweatshirt for myself-to help keep me warm during the awful winter season while i am waiting for april. I buy a stuffed animal for my nephew and some pki clothing. Tom
July 16, 200521 yr I always buy those big wall posters of a map of PKI. In other words, a big map thats ment to be a poster. They have poster-sized park maps?? Where are those sold at? I'd love to buy one. I have a collection of actual park maps from all parks I visit hanging in my room, and I'd love to have a giant one of my home park.
July 18, 200521 yr "One thing that I do want to get for my Wall of Shame is one of those metal Eiffel Tower statues." For some strange reason, I really want one of those. I'd actually like one made in the glass shop, but I'm guessing it would be pretty expensive.
July 18, 200521 yr Whenever I go with my friends, I always get an ORP. I have several from over the years- Flight of Fear (when it had OTSR's, and when it got changed), SOB, Vortex, Beastie, Top Cat, SDATHC, Beast, Face/off, and Italian Job. I also have some from Holiday world and SFKK. A few years ago, I enjoyed collecting prizes from the park. I loved those stuffed animals, but didn't ever have the room in my house for them. My mom's closet is filled with those gigantic tigers, panther, and a lion.
July 18, 200521 yr I have an Eiffel Tower keychain, some faded Boomerang Bay flip-flops, a Beast shirt, and about $0.12 worth of PKI Pennies. I used to have a distorted glass 7-UP bottle from Glass Blower (c. 1977) and a plastic, chrome-looking Eiffel Tower that was, like, 6" tall, but, alas, they're gone.
July 18, 200521 yr Yes, some of those plush prizes are just incredibly huge! Where would someone put something like that in their house? It would probably go in a corner and collect dust.
July 18, 200521 yr You can get the large park maps from the shops in the entrance they are only a dollar. I have 3 and i always give my teacher a big map to remember me LOL.
July 18, 200521 yr Many years ago, I bought a slide puzzle with either Scooby Doo or Scrappy Doo on it (don't remember). The most recent souvenir I've purchased is a Beast 25th Anniversary Souvenir Cup (got it from Outfitters in Rivertown earlier this year). I've also purchased a few souvenir pennies and souvenir quarters over the years, although I always seem to lose those.
