Happy April 11th everyone!

Since today was the scheduled opening day, I thought why not do it virtually?

I was thinking we couls use this thread to share our favorite pictures, videos, and POVs of the park. I'll start.

 

 

 

I know this one will please @TombRaiderFTW

And finally:

 

Have a Great Day (here at Kings Island) Everyone!

 

I figured this existed.

 

KIC Diamondback take over at 11 AM.

 

The crew is just rocking dispatch times. We got on really quick! 

 

 

Finally! Gotta get some blue ice cream! 

 

The line at the chicken shack is absurd and my food was cold.

I saw there's no line for GPC

Do we get a side item with the salad this year or not at the shack on the meal plan...I'm in line and it's extended almost to Drop Tower so wanna know if I should bail...

the land where Firehawk was looks rlly empty, just looked from the Eiffel Tower. what might go there?

edit: i thought we were redoing 2019 cuz 2020 is bad

Maybe a 287 ft tall coaster with a 300ft drop

 

Idk lol

@pianoman will be excited to learn there are videos of Kings Island Fountain ERT.

 

Brewhouse anyone? 

Congo Falls at 49 degrees anyone?

 

Orion just closed....It's normally code 29 when that happens but I thought they just said covid-19

Sounds like it might be down a while....

Yeah sure! I could use a bite to eat.

I wonder how long Orion's wait would have been today....

EDIT: You can do Street View on Google Maps BTW, though, its fairly old.  As in, Son of Beast still standing old.

Good food at Brewhouse, now enjoying the views at KMAA!

kk tap out for a sec im confused are we redoing 2019 or doing 2020 opening

On a cold day like this, I would actually be contemplating Skyline Time for lunch. 

Someone also check the RT Freestyle station for @King Ding Dong

@Nutterie Sharing videos/pics from KI to make it feel like we are at Opening Day even though we physically can't be there b/c COVID-19

So, I just went down to the valley... yeah, I'm gonna be here a while... getting plenty of re-rides!

But they are open. 

Time for some Fountain ERT with @pianoman, @silver2005, @acole5292, @malem, and myself.

I normally don't when I go to Kings Island.  However, during the brisker portions of the calendar like early Spring or during the Haunt, I'm game.

Though for Haunt, I go to the Kings Mills location outside the park.  Kind of a annual tradition for me to go there before my first Haunt visit each season.   Also helps that they're one of the better Skyline restaurants in the area. 

I had some extra time today so I thought it would be a good idea to record Mystic Timbers truck audio!

Guys, WindSeeker is down.  

They prepared for people thinking they could replenish their stock at home

Now if they only had soap in the dispensers

The wait is least 1hr 39 minutes as of 11:39am

The KIC Admins are hard at work through all this.
