So the announcement is at 10. So will the park still close at 8 except that area or will the park stay open the extra 2 hours? 

That's my question as well.  Seems odd to do it at 10pm on a day the park closes at 8.

 

Edit:  Just noticed there is an RSVP to Chad on the invitation.  You don't think they'd do a media only reveal where the GP is not invited do you?

I WILL be there. I'm ready and excited to be there for the big announcement. Won't get home till about 2:00 am, but it will be worth it.

Wait, but why did they give her TWO Firehawk posters?

Cause they couldn't go to everyone they sent to and put tape over something

You mean not have an open announcement where a bunch of people are going to boo your new attraction? Yeah that sounds crazy why would they do that

That time is very strange considering the park closes at 8:00 that night. I’ll believe it when KI actually posts it to their social media platforms.

This good enough for you? lol

Well now we know there is no way this is fake.

Yeah i know there is going to be ONE jerk coaster enthusiast in the crowd that boo's the stats.

I know most of the project has been revealed via the blueprints, etc.....but I can't help thinking that in the name of alien conspiracies, coverups and disinformation that some of it may have been purposely misleading. Would be awesome. 

Lets do this! I am so ready and do not want to wait a week lol this will be my first in person announcement!

Sorry If that offends any locals haha just a joke.

What a coincidence that the announcement is going to be the same day I was planning on going to Cedar Point, might need to reschedule so I can be there lol.

How many plan on being here 8/15/2019?

Me

So are they going to project the announcement on the FOF building? Like the plain white wall on top of the entrance that used to say Press Area (please bring that back). 

Awesome!  What a great time to be a KI fan!

I'm assuming you all will be recording this. Is youtube the place to watch this few hrs later? I'll be asleep at that time as I get up at 1am

Live stream if it’s possible? I’ll be out of town but it would be much appreciated. 

I most definately will be there. Already had to take the day off work for the kids school stuff. they dont have school till the 19th. Really excited now.

As much as I am excited for this. we need to wait and see if it is a media event or if we will be allowed to attend. I've heard multiple things. I've also heard someone say it will be a gold pass event. If true, I'm sure platinum passholders will be accepted too. But lets wait and see. 

This good enough for you? lol

Lol they posted it right after I replied on here [emoji13]

Kings Island wouldn't of posted it on twitter if it was a closed event for media only. They get their day when the ride is built and there is a Media day. This is for everyone!

If Ki says something on their official Twitter, then it will be publicized in one way or another.

I have noticed that if you ride on an even number row on FoF at Kings Island it wont squish you as much. But I might be wrong.

Yes that is true, the back of the car is a bit larger but at KD all the cars are bigger, we rode in the front portion of the car

Unfortunately not me. School starts sadly.

I'm sure it will be streamed. Banshee and MT were both streamed online.

Key word being joke, I'm sorry I think it's ridiculous that opinions have been formed before we really have all the true statistics. Booing at the reveal will make all coaster fans look bad and deter the park from inviting GP in the future. I know we don't know yet if GP is invited, but o really pray if we are that people can behave.
