What do you miss the most about Kings Island this off season?

I miss my Vortex. There's nothing quite like going upside down, head over heels all while getting shaken up a little. ;)

Everything the rides on the dry and wet side, the games, the ambience, but the food, its hard to say this the food is so less memorable than other parks, even in the Cedar Fair family:

The atmosphere, sometimes I'll just sit in the gardens and take pictures.

I miss the atmosphere the most. Nothing beats walking around Kings Island on a warm sunny day, with the smell of food mingling in with hot cracked pavement, with the sounds of rollercoasters, screams, and laughter echoing through the park.

Maybe this is just because I go to Kings Island all the time, but I'd rather walk around the park for one hour than spend a whole day riding rides. For one , riding rides all day is just boring and tiring, but walking around is fun and relaxing. I also really like people watching!

So, yeah, I miss the atmosphere most. In fact I haven't ridden a coaster there since July, and I went three times during October and once in September!

I miss the walk up coolangatta racer and going on the down under thunder

The Beast

Everything, really. But I chose atmosphere because walking around the park just feels so natural, especially over by the Backlot and Coney Mall area.

Atmosphere. Count me as another one who could walk around the park without riding anything.

I'd have to say the same thing that makes amusement parks on the moon so inferior to those on earth-the atmosphere, or lack thereof.

(Sorry, I couldn't resist.)

I miss the atmosphere the most, but like many others have said I miss it all during the off season. Except for maybe Haunt, but that's only because I haven't been able to make it out to one yet. I'm already looking forward to the rides this year (and maybe finally psyching myself up to ride the only two I haven't braved yet.)

I miss going on a weekday when not a lot of people are there. Being able to walk on almost any ride and then not having to worry about wasting time eating and taking a break while lines build up. Just relaxing and enjoying the atmosphere.

The Beast, and the general atmosphere of the park!

Would love the park to have some midnight closings during the summer too:

They do. This year, it's July 4 and all Saturdays from June 30 to August 4.
