We wanted to let you know that one of KIC's own--violakat03--won the Ride with Rex on Diamondback Giveaway. We look forward to meeting Kat and many other KICentral members at KI on opening day! Hopefully we will be able to get some pictures and video for our site reports of KIC members thoughout the day.

The Beast and I (and Kat if she is still interested in hanging out with us by then!) will be grabbing an afternoon snack at Bubba Gump Shrimp Shack at 3:30. If any of you are around, drop by and say hello, we'd love to meet you.

I'm sure we'll see you around the park (we will have RexandtheBeast.com shirts on), so when you see us give us a shout!

Congrats violakat!

Cangrats.

I think it went to a good person.

I also love all this KICentral publicity!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah a bunch of us will be walking billboards for KIC on Saturday lol.

She's gonna be soooooo happy!

I feel like the last two days have been group hug moments

^^Haha I'm considering getting a season pass now just for ERT. We are know staying at the Super 8 in Mason on Friday and Saturday night.

I hate to ask the question (being too logical of a person), but how will this work with the husband now?? (who's also going on Sat!)

Congratulations violakat03!

(It is nice knowing that it was won by someone who will truly appreciate it.)

Have a great time!

P.S. Also thanks to Rex & The Beast for having the contest.

Good for you!!!!! I hope you enjoy your ride!

That is so amazing. She texted me earlier and let me know. Kat is one of the most fun people I have ever hung out with, not to mention it seems we are kindred spirits, and I love her to death.. she deserves this!

Congrats! I dont mean to be a smart alec, but isn't it outer hanks now? I visited a BG recently and wish it still was at KI! Once again, Congrats!

Yes, it's still Outer Hanks...the Bubba Gumps thing didn't happen...at least not yet.

Terpy, who at first wondered what BG--Busch Gardens--had to do with Outer Hanks, tee hee

Congratulations Kat I'll see you Saturday morning and look forward to saying hi to Rexandthebeast, you guys have been great to have around and I look forward to your reports.

Thanks for the update...I was going off of the park map shown on KI's site....but, we will still make the meeting place there.

Congrats Kat!

Congratulations Kat!! Hope to see you guys there!

Congratulations Kat! Hope to see everybody Saturday!

Some of the comments in this thread put a huge smile on my face (though a grin has been a pretty much permanent fixture all day). You guys make me feel so loved. I still can't believe I won this! Angie and I will probably be getting a hotel room for Friday night like a couple other folks are doing. I don't do early mornings well.

Drats! I didn't win!

But seriously, congrats, kat! I'm not really mad at ya!

And thanks, Rex and The Beast for holding this contest!
