Most Anticipated Coasters For 2016
lilsam1993 replied to I305forever's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Twisted Twins at Kentucky Kingdom! -
It would be awesome to see a zamperla air race. Ed Hart has said it plenty of times, "Its all about the rides". He has said the park will add a new ride every year because that is what keeps people coming back. He learned this back in the 90s, and Holiday World had learned from Ed Hart. The park reopening T2 along with the Rapid Ride is obviously not enough for 2014 IMO. You always have to have something NEW because that is what interest people. I would love to see a coaster be added to the park next year. If that doesn't happen, then 2 Major new flats and maybe a new waterslide. Ed Hart

The Height restriction for the park in 200ft in certain areas. There was plenty of room, and there still is. Dominator was supposed to go where sky coaster and Road Runner sits...If you look at the lift hill on that ride, it was designed that way because it was going to be along side Ring Road. Steel Venom was going to be located where Greezed Lightning is located. I am not sure about the flying coaster. Also...several kids rides and the thriller bees ride where all transferred from Kentucky Kingdom to Geauga Lake.

Holiday World (HW) Discussion Thread

I don't think Holiday World is looking to outdo anyone. They have never done this before with Kentucky Kingdom, but if they do... right now with Ed Hart in charge, them trying to out due Kentucky Kingdom is like suicide imo. -
I agree with just about everything you said but actually it was 2006 when SFKK failed. Jay got the park on financial target like you said, but that was for the 2007 season when Deluge was added and the whole water park went under a crappy renovations and renamed SplashWater Kingdom. But then the accident happened that year and Jay got relocated to SFMM and all future plans for the KK was scratchcard. At a Job fair I attended in January 2007, Jay Thomas did hint to us employees at that time that there were plans for the NW territory of the park (Twisted Twin, Mile High Falls) in the next season

Something Different? This is what Kentucky Kingdom was always about back in the day. I am sure being different is going to be the title of this park in the future as well. The worlds first 2nd generation drop Tower The worlds first SLC The worlds first dueling coaster The worlds largest Spill Ride The worlds longest and tallest stand up coaster The worlds first ride of it's kind (quake) Now we have in 2014... The worlds first Chance Morgan Hyper The U.S. Tallest Body Slide... Different is Kentucky Kingdom's title. What is next??

When the Zeppelin first opened it was located where the current entrance of Lightning Run/Greezed Lightning Run is located. The original queue line still exist today for this ride. It is to the left of the entrance of Lightning Run/Greezed Lightning. The Zeppelin was later relocated when Twisted Sisters opened.
