I got this bright, yet wild haired idea last night just watching TV, so hear me out. Would it not be nice if, for the more enthusiast type people, Kings Island did something like an opening day Scavenger Hunt deal where you had to like pick out 5-10 things different in the park than were there last year. An example is, there is no more trash cans located beside of the Festhaus, or something received a coat of paint, things like that, that only the true enthusiast fan would be able to pick out.

Great idea! Let me start, There seems to be a big wooden roller coaster missing.

and maybe a water tower? oh yeah, and some go-karts

No more Cut Throat Cove, maybe.

The Crypt.

I actually thought of making one for opening day, but that has been long since quit, although I still have the file to work on....

I just figured it would be something fun for those who look for stuff like that at the park.Seems like there is always some differences that go unnoticed through an entire season sometimes.

ERT is only half of what it use to be,no more funperks,there is a six story dino roaming somewhere,and 2 new restaurants I cant wait to eat at!

BLSC has removed its seatbelts, I don't know if FoF is the same or not.

I saw a report on Facebook that Flight Deck was also without seatbelts. I can't confirm that, though.

EDIT: Also, I noticed an interesting change: most of the wait time signs are now individually themed to that specific ride. Diamondback was the only ride I saw with the old generic yellow wait time sign.

I think Adventure Express got a new entrance sign. It has the same logo, but the colors don't look as faded. Altough not as noticable to me, I think the same thing happened to the Xtreme Skyflyer sign. Nothing that spectacular, but something I saw.

It could be a new sign, or it could just be fresh paint on the old sign. Either way, it's a nice touch.

Flight Deck did not have seat belts today!

I would assume losing the seat belts means they have upgraded the restraint systems?

Or the manufacturer's recommendations have changed.

The garbage bag over the shorter blade in the bathroom by DB is missing.

I saw some Blue and orange paint bottles below Vortex near its station on the ground.

There's a little reference to SoB's radioactive-like symbol in FoF's line.

Plinko is gone going into X-Base and a small gift shop has moved in it's place, same thing at the arcade by The Beast.
