KI just tweeted this:

With Travel Channel producer setting up mounts for this weekends shoot.

Anyone here know what's going on? I didn't know there was going to be a Travel Channel shoot this weekend until I saw the tweet.

Hmmm...Travel always seems to do a Roller Coaster show in the Summer. I wonder what/which ride(s) will be featured?

5/16/2012. Somebody posted something about a video shoot that day at SFOG. There's a whole park world to discover.

My wife and I will be attending friday's event. It will be a first for both of us, and were excited to be a part of something special. The Beast roller coaster is Friday's event, and Diamondback is Saturday's. I think Invertigo is for Sunday's event, but I can't remember!

^ What event?

Vortex is Sunday.

And it's an ACE event.

Im attending Saturday and Sunday. Im pretty excited. this will be a first for me

...wait...

what is going on?

I have no idea.

I'll be there tommorow morning, need to get rolloing at 5 AM but it should be worth it.

...wait...

what is going on?

Yeah. What is going on? Would somebody who knows please explain?

TRAVEL CHANNEL'S DESTINATION SUMMER HEATS UP, ASKING VIEWERS TO DECIDE WHICH ROLLER COASTER IS THE BEST AS PART OF ITS NEW ORIGINAL SERIES "INSANE COASTER WARS"

Travel Channel is doing (another) coaster special, this time putting coasters up against others to see which is the best. Travel Channel was at Dollywood a few weeks ago, they are now at Kings Island this weekend to collect more footage for the special. It will probably be ready to air by mid-summer.

Thank you for the explanation.

Thanks for explaining rather than acting like it is some top secret rally, lol.

If they are filming during open hours, i may be on tv, watch myself on tv, and scream at myself for being on tv.

They way these people are explaining it, it sounds like a closed event.

Well that sunk my battleship....

I'm not sure, don't quote me!

When in doubt...call the park?

Or oprah w., heard that she has good advice.

Apparently they're doing this with multiple crews, as there's also a Travel Channel crew at Holiday World today for what appears to be the same show, based on this Facebook post.

I'm happy Travel Channel id doing another coaster special. Watching those "Extreme Thrill Rides" ones get old and outdated quickly. Plus, I'll need something on that channel to watch besides Ghost Adventures

I'm not certain if it was Travel Channel, but on my visit today I saw a man with a TV style camera shooting at The Vortex.
