I was born in 1987 and the ride that opened was Vortex and that's my fav. Ride at the park

Posted on my iPod touch.

i was born on september 30 1985 B) and white water canyon opened that same year and i make it one of the last rides i ride before i head home {weather and mood permiting}

I was born April 11, 1996. Just a few weeks after I was born, the Flight of Fear opened (At the time named The Outer Limits: Flight of Fear)

It to this day remains one of my favorite rides.

i love the ride that is the stuff leading up to getting in the station and once i see those cars take off so quick i run out of there cause im a big chiken turd when it comes to that ride

i was born on 11/15/1992,

I was born after the Phantom Theater, and the new rides in hannah barbera land.

This project made me sad. I knew that White Water Canyon was the same age as me, but some of the others were interesting.

I must be a bit of a disaster, as Disaster Transport shares a birthday with me.

Mad Mouse at Old Indiana was opened in my year...yay, I got to ride it.

Z-Force at Six Flags Great America I'll probably ride this year.

Skyrider at Canada's Wonderland - eventually.

Phoenix at Knoebels was opened in my year as well...can't wait to ride it in May.

Now the sad part - Baby Wildcat and Jack Rabbit from Idora Park, which alas, I never got to even see. :(

I did not know that Action Theater opened in 94. Thanks to the people who said that.

Edit: Yes Im not a tourist anymore. I am a Local now.

Imagine 30 years from now, when people ask the question, "When were you born?" And the 09 babies will answer "when Diamondback opened, 30 years ago." But that was a big deal back then.

I was born February 15, 1994 and Action Theater opened that year. :)

Cool i was born Feb. 15, 1994 also and KC was still dtanding as well as Skylab

hey your personal photo fits nicely whered you get it cause i would like one as well :unsure:

Well - I feel older.

As I understand it, Bavarian Beetle opened under another name at Coney Island in 1970.

I was born on August 17th during the year in which The Vortex put its first riders through its grip.... Although it is not my favorite ride in the park, it's still a great one and it sure makes it easier to remember how old it is. When I begin to forget the age, it may be time to hang it up.

No new rides in 76, however the park introduced The American Heritage Theater. Now know as The Kings Island Theater.

None. I was born in 1960 and KI was not open yet. Old Coney Island was where we went when I was little and Shooting Star was the king of all coasters.
