What is beast buzz?

Its a Coaster event that takes place at parks around the US. Coaster buzz does this with pki. They do different events through out the day. For example FOF tour they take you inside the Flight of Fear. You get to see them launch trains. With all the lights on. Also you get a walkback into the woods thats right The Beast walkback. And they have savenger hunts and you can win prizes like season passes and other great stuff.

How can I participate in this?

BeastBuzz has already occured this year, it was back around the 18th of June.

Last year the Southwest Ohio Region of ACE in coordination with the Great Ohio Coast Club I believe held Fall Freak Out last October. From what I heard, that even was a huge success. I did not attend due to a lot of work at school. Does any one know if this event will be back again this year, (a new annual event?) or if it was a one time event?

how can i go next year do you have to sign up or join something?

The info will be posted for next years...next year. You can just go to the gate and sign up day-of.

Why don't they have Beastbuzz anymore?

^ That is a good question to ask over at Coasterbuzz.

Well Jeff mentioend a couple years ago when there was lots of change in personnel that he was not getting the same connectivity/response from the new group and thus discontinued it. But it is worth always asking again to see if he could try again and see.

EDIT: Thanks, Vortexfan.

Pretty sure he meant Jeff as in Putz, operator of Coasterbuzz.

Kings Island asked on twitter if "we" think an even like Beast Buzz should be brought back?

I thought it seemed like a great event, and it should be brought back.

EDIT: It would be interesting, though, since the park only has one Beast.

BeastBuzz looks like it was a lot of fun. I'd absolutely be interested in going to it.

I would love to attend!

Things like this interest me, I've always wanted to see the inside of Flight of Fear and ride with the lights on!

KingsIslandPR tweeted about our opinions of an event similar to BeastBuzz. He did not say BeastBuzz will be returning. There is a difference. Also, if I am not mistaken, don't you need to be a member of CoasterBuzz to participate in one of there xBuzz events? Furthermore, even if an event were to be held, there is no guarantee a "Flight of Fear tour" will be on the agenda.

Good. I'm not a buzzard.

A big enthusiast event should definitely happen at KI again. It's great that the park (or at least Don) is apparently interested in it!

Perhaps KICentral could even be involved - PointBuzz/CoasterBuzz shouldn't get all the fun! After all, we're perhaps the biggest group of fans of KI specifically. In any case, add me to the list of people who would be interested in attending.

By the way, I didn't get a chance to ask Ryan this on closing day: why has KICentral never launched a "coaster club"?

The KI Central event held at Kings Island required that you be a member of this site to participate.

Part of the new scavenger hunt is to see if you can find Son of Beast.

I thought that was at Carowinds.

Would that be SOK?

More like JRK.

The loser wins.

Looks like CoasterBuzz is interested again. From their Twitter account:

@KingsIslandPR Obviously we'd like to bring it back. We did that event for five straight years.

And KingsIslandPR's reply:

@coasterbuzz Let's make it happen!

We should start thinking about dates and logistics for our own meet-up(s) next year.

^ Sounds like maybe the possibilities of BeastBuzz returning, aren't so bad after all.

According to Coasterbuzz, BeastBuzz is making its return on August 10, 2013! Link.

No details have been released yet besides the date, but the fact that it's happening is exciting enough!

I would love to see KI bring back another major enthusiast event like Ride Warriors Coaster Weekend, only better organized this time.

For those who don't remember and/or didn't attend, RWCW was a major two-day enthusiast event that KI did in 2009. It was open to members of KIC, KIE and certain coaster clubs/other enthusiast groups/sites. While it was a lot of fun, the full details of the event were not announced until just 3 1/2 months before the event occurred, and there was some confusion over who could attend, how to prove you were a member of this site, etc.

What credentials will you have to have to be a part of Beast Buzz?

A coasterbuzz membership.
