^ I love Gobbler Getaway! Besides its very popular and it's air conditioned to remove it would be an awful move for the park. -
^ It could be worse. It's taken my sister 5 years to get her license because of Kentucky's mucked up license program.

^ I really don't like that idea. There's really not a way you could develop and theme rides like that. And even if you could, it wouldn't be easy. Besides that, a new section is just out of the question. -

It's a prototype they were expecting the issues with it. Hopefully It will be all worked out by next season.In other news how about that Rintamin Rega Rite with ringy-dinga-a-lings on the lift hill? -

I was on Tripadvisor today reading HW's reviews and I got angry at a reviewer who rated the park to stars not because the park was bad but the cabins that they stayed in (which were not affiliated in any way to the park) were awful! In the review they didn't even talk about the park, except for maybe like two sentences! Ugh!

Tuesday night I went to our local fair in Madisonvile,KY. It was,to say the least,interesting.I would have taken some photos with my phone,but it died rather quickly so no photos. But, I did take some and I may upload them later. Anyways we arrived at the fairgrounds and paid for the ten dollar wristband,and arrived at our first ride, a standard frisbee ride it was fun and suprisingly safe looking, altough the ride op was smoking while she checked our restraints. After that experience we played some carnival games ran by the most annoying people in the world,carnies. Our prize: a cheap a$$ ball-in-a-cup. Next up horror house and scorpion.Both were structurally unsound and equally scary. The horror house itself didn't scare us,it was the smell of asbestos that did! But the Scorpian scared us through it's creaking noise and the bludgeoning of my girlfriend who happened to be seated in the crusher seat of the ride. We then arrived at a standard fun house. The fun house was great but the carnie running it was scary. To put it short, he had two yellow teeth. thats all we could notice about him. after that we rode a couple more structurally unsound rides such as The ring Of Fire,Gravitron,Tornado,Tilt-n-Hurl,and The Sea Dragon pirate ship with unreasonably loud music. Our last ride of the night was Typhoon which is hard to describe,nut I think its the same thing as The Moby Dick ride at Beech Bend. It was fun except for the metal OTSR's that nearly crushed my head when they came down without warning! It then rained, and we had to leave our little ghetto fair and go home. Long story short we lived through a ghetto fair.

Official RCT3 Help Thread
holidayworld08 replied to mcjaco's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
Now when i play RCT3, I get through all the titles and on the "Loading Resources" page it stops at 20%. It just locks up,and when I bring up the task manager it says the game is not responding! Any help? -
Its been a while since my last visit.But I came back for another tour and they have another amazing ride built that should start testing next month. Great Kentucky Park presents to you... F5,an Intamin Mega-Lite! Its named after the category of tornado. Tornados have devastated kentucky many times including the 2005 tornado that struck my hometown of Madisonville. 5% of the revenue F5 generates in its first year will go to the Red Cross.Anyways,on to the photos! Station F5 with Crawfish Mine disaster in The background.

Hello everyone,quite a bit of time has passed since my last visit to the park (four months!),as I have been reporting on the downtown revitalization project. But I took a visit to the park today and I have a lot of stuff to show you. Oh, by the way I almost forgot to tell you that they found a name for the cafe, The SpringTree Cafe. They added a new ride,called Cardinal's Flight since my last visit! Cardinal at night. Crawfish Island at night. A shooting gallery was also recently built. The line starts after you exit the gift shop. Crawfish Island was abandoned due to an incident 50 years ago in the mine shaft. You can relive the expirience on The Crawfish Mine Disaster ride. Another ride has been added to the park, and its set in the sleepy mine town of Crawfish Island. Cardinal's Station
