April 23, 2009: Photo TR, Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom

 

My time in Kentucky Kingdom with my friends. We all agreed to split up and meet at the front of the park at a special time... which left one friend in trouble. He got kicked out for line jumping and couldn't come back in . Luckily, it was near park closing time and we were gonna go anyway, but we still hated him for that!

 

My vote for this park, probably not what you were thinking since I live in the same city but I really like it. Most people I see hate it because they have probably went on a bad day, most people do. The best times to go are when its not too hot, unless you want to hit the water park.

 

I don't see much trash anywhere, the park is more lush than it was last year. Because of the removal of Superman Tower of Power (known to us as "Hellevator"), You are greeted with an area of flowers instead of a thrill ride. The park looks like it is going through phases: Removal of Chang, more trees, nicer workers, and a bigger and cleaner water park. Other than that, the park is great when it is not 80-90 degrees outside.

 

A time NOT to go is when there is a concert soon in the day, expect an unexpectedly huge crowd.

Yay, Me on Sky Coaster. There were Six Flags photographers EVERYWHERE around this ride. Most were taking pictures of me on Skycoaster. A little embarrassed until I went to order them. They were awesome pictures. Unfortunately, there was a better picture than this, but I ordered the wrong ones :(. oh well!

Chang in its best inversion (my opinion!).

The Newest waterslide, Mega Wedgie. I don't even know why they even named it that. I bet its because they could not come up with any!

Better than the Chairswing, comes flying shoes. The Flying Dutchman ride is very interesting in Belgain Village!

Front row brotherly love on Thunder Run. I hate this ride more than T2. I almost got a whiplash on this Juggernaut.

The world renowned Proslide Hydromagnetic waterslide, DELUGE!

 

Never got to ride it though. =,-(

T2 Trains. Also T2 stands for "Terror to the Second Power", just like how the "E" in "Wile E. Cotyote" stands for "Ethelbert".

 

T2 is terribly rough. My suggestion: Sit in the last row, keep your head back, push the side of your head against the headrest, brace for impact!

Chang roller coaster. This is the last I have ever seen this mighty fine roller coaster. resto nella pace (Italian for "Rest in Peace"!)

Looking up at Enterprise in its full glory. For some reason, it fells a little more rickety than it use to be.

So you are a theme park person and a friend of yours gets busted and kicked out for line jumping? Shouldn't they know better........

 

Anyway, nice pics, what there were. Would've liked to see some of Greezed Lightning and Thunder Run, always nice to see different perspectives and views from people of rides.

I have been on Mega Wedgie but not Deluge. Mega wedgie is, lets just say, not worth a 20 minute wait. Other than that, it is a must ride. If you so happen to be in Splashwater Kingdom, RIDE IT. Don't even think about it, just do it!

 

P.S. the floor for the ending pool of the slide is colored yellow, don't have it mistaken for a pool full of urine!

 

I didn't get on Deluge because the line was so long!

The warning sign for Mega Wedgie, just in case you wanted to see it!

Another view of Megawedgie. If you look carefully, you can see that the water looks yellow, that is only the floor of that pool. The floor is colored yellow and looks like it is full of only urine. IT IS NOT!
