Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread
thepoint4life23 replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
There was a really bad winter this year. but still they should no. they are on a lake and have been open for a few years. And what are the laws for testing, how long does the ride have to be tested for before the state let it open? -
Im sure this has been posted before. the thing thing about harry potter is crazy to me. i have never in my life had to wait in a line or get a fast pass to get in to a land of a park. people were waiting about an hour and a half just to get in to harry potter land. then every thing over there was an hour wait. well all but dd. to me it was just crazy to thing that it was that busy or that big of a deal people are pay 60 some bucks to go to one land in the park Crazy!.

Overrated Parks
thepoint4life23 replied to What Now's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I live in Columbus ohio about hour and a half to kings island and 2 and a half to cedar point. I get cedar fairs pass for the last few years. since i know im going to be going to cedar point alot. I pick to go to cedar point over kings island. I want to kings island this years just to ride db. i also want to a few other parks this year, and just keep telling my self how much i love cedar point once the day is over. People can say its over rated but to me it puts a smill on my face and know i can go and get a thrill that some parks can lack to me -

I would be ok with a woodie, but i dont see one coming this year. and i think that a water ride is the best fit for time and clues. -

I think a long fun log ride themed around moonshine and all that would be fun. has any one seen if you ride the train from frontier land to main midway when you go through bone ville the guy making moonshine and drinking it. the bottle is labeled white lighting -

thepoint4life23 replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I really dont want to rain on any one's day but i dont see any thing big going in next year. i was at the point today, and beside that picture posted there is no sign of any thing being done to the island at the park. just one or two stacks with red flags on them. I looked and looked all day for any clues and could not find any thing. so my guss would have to be a dark ride themed around like fbi- moonshine makers defending its self. inless the joke is that it will be really opening in 2011 -

Kings Island (KI) Discussion Thread
thepoint4life23 replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I want to Kings Island yesterday to. I wanted to get my cedar fairs pass and also ride db. First thoughts, It looks really good towing over the park. I thought since you could get in early with a pass that it would be testing when i got there about 345. But it was not kinda shocked me. Once i got all my paper work taken care of. i made my way back to db. I wanted to knock it out first not knowing how long the line would end up. Got there a little after 5, Walked to line about a 5 min wait. The ride looks really cool running all the way back to the end of the park. The water splash down area also ends a nice new look to the area. My first ride was in the middle of the train since the girl working would not let me wait for the front. SO I get in sit down. Really like the trains. Seats are nice and don’t hurt or uncountable for some one 6'6". My thoughts after the ride, I was really really disappointed. Everyone talked about how good it was. i got off and was like well that sucked. First drop was good but feels smaller when your going over it then it is. Then after that there was no air time really no speed hammerhead turn sucked-slow force less. So after being disappointed I just wanted to walk around the park and just rode everything else and just walked around and enjoy the nice day that we had yesterday . So after ridding everything in about two hours. I just thought I will try to get a few more rides on it so that I could find out if it was really that bad or just a bad seat. Ride 2. This time I need to ride in the front. So I waited about 15 min at the most for my front row ride. The view from the front is really good. The drop this time was a lot stronger and faster. the next few hill gave me a lot of crazy air time. The hammerhead was a lot stronger. And found my self enjoying the ride a lot more. ride 3. Want for row 16 the back. The ride in the back is fun. you get thrown over the hill and get a lot of air time as well. mcbr are light and get some more floating air. the final helix at the end before the splashdown sucks slow and force less. In all seats. The water splash down is really big but did get me a little wet on the lift side back seat. Overall thoughts. the best ride in the park hands down. run ride differently think it passed magnum on my list. but that’s it not the best steel ride ever but a good one. After thinking about my first ride. i think since it was so early in the day the train and wheels had not warmed up yet, so that why it was running super slow. And that’s why the trims were off and just putted around the track. Also this maybe the quietest ride I have ever been on. over all I get it a 7.5 or 8 good ride for the park and adds a lot to the park and area as well. -

does your platinum pass help you get in a hour early then the park opens if so is this ride open at that time. and is the line shorter then. -
Ok hear is what i have been thinking about. Im a 21 years old. and i been thinking to my self why should i throw my money away when i can do something with it. I was looking in to getting some stock and i no that the market is really low right now. so i though why not by stock now hold on to it for a few years and sell it when it gose up. I want to get cedar fairs stock(fun) but i want to know if any one is in to stock and thinks it a good idea
