Can’t believe there’s only 5 more days until we get to go to ki.

They should add fun pix to Flight of Fear, that would make for some good pictures

They had an on-ride photo and video before FunPix...from what I gather, it didn't really sell many items, so they ended up removing the systems and I wouldn't be surprised if the camera has been moved.

Improvements around the carousel this season!!

What a waste.  It’s going to be one of the next to go in The Ride Game.

I knew Firehawk's on-ride photo booth is gone (the building is still there, I know), but where was Adventure Express's photo booth in relation to the ride (I think the actual photo may have been taken after the first drop?)?

FOFs photos used to put aliens in the backseat of your car.

You are the aliens

Did anyone else notice last year that Vortex's photos were not working half the time?

Yes, there was lots of gripping about it.    @VortexBFForever Promises to have it fixed and running smoothly this year.  

They worked, it just took forever for the kiosk to receive the pictures, roughly 2-4 cycles.

Yeah i hope they are. 

As a pass holder, I did and I would wait. I can go back, I don't have to jam pack my trips to ride every thing 3019023 times before I leave (okay that number is a little un-realistic lol). 

But, yeah....if I've paid for FunPix, I want my picture from my ride, I'll wait. 

Just going to bump in and say Happy Birthday to Vortex!

Happy Birthday Vortex!   Thanks for the headache!

Vortex is still a great ride if I may say so.

Happy Birthday Vortex; though you were originally built as a replacement, you have since cemented your way as an iconic part of Kings Island's coaster lineup. May your back seat rides always provide enjoyment to riders. 

Good to see The Bat testing.

I think it was just a filter/mask that went over the photo so they could move and stretch to fit how you wanted your picture to be.

I found this, but I'm not sure if it was the official one or not. 

I'm so glad the day is here. Super excited to finally ride some roller coasters (even though WinterFest helped a lot). Also perfect weather for today, too!

 

Just checked the webcam out...Diamondback is already stacked (345 Friday). 

For everyone at the park, any possible signs of construction/how does the former Dinosaurs Alive area look?

The front plaza is a smoking area, I believe, and the paths still wind back through the woods, but without dinosaurs. The walkway under Racer is fenced off.

None. There’s no work going on at all.

 

Zephyr has all new black seats. Also there's a new game across from Coney Bar B Que:



Object is to land the token on the plate. $1 buys four tokens.

It was nice to hear bluegrass music in Rivertown, even if it was a bluegrass cover of Blink-182.
