They usually had an entree (sometimes two) and a dessert, along with one beer and wine.

While I do agree with this statement, it would be a bit sad to do it on the first ride of the day... Yes, perhaps that would not be a perfect way for a Viking to die. He should do battle with this great beast instead!

Yes. They are, indeed, revolting.

^You did show remarkable restraint.

Welcome to Theme Park Review. If you're curious about certain parks, you should probably ask your questions in one of our numerous par discussion threads. Just click on this link for a directory: http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=63853. You'll notice that Kings Dominion and Cedar Point have specific threads devoted to them. I hope this is helpful.

Fixed that for you. Fury is a lot fun, as is Afterburner. The park also has a good set of flyers. The Taste of the Carolinas food festival, which ends May 1, is worth checking out. I was there for it last year and was quite impressed with the food and beer selections. Overall, Carowinds is a nice park that's steadily improving.

High winds will close down the Sky Ride, but you shouldn't have problems with rain short of a monsoon or a thunderstorm.

Well, let's not go crazy here. I like Flight of Fear, but I would rather ride either of the U.S. Space Mountains.

I don't think so. Scenic World doesn't really need a coaster. It's more of a "national park" type setting. The old coaster track is just a curiosity and an eyesore now.

Larry speaks the truth.

A trackless Beauty and the Beast dark ride would be a big step up over the Tomorrowland Raceway (which I think is the park's weakest attraction).

Agreed. It's nice to see Universal after dark when it isn't Halloween Horror NIght.

Wildcat, The--Hersheypark

^Ruling, please? Road Runner Railway--six Flags Great Adventure

Sounds like a better use of the space.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure KD already has a family launcher. XD Backlot Stunt Coaster says "hi."

Agreed.

At least they nearly filled the little beer cup at the Ireland booth; the others only gave about half a cup.

Limit--Heide Park (Germany)

I checked out the park's 3D movie du jour while I was there: Robinson Crusoe. It wasn't very good, and having a bunch of fold-up risers stacked in front of the screen didn't help it much (the bottom of the projected image was lost). Other than that, here's one last set of photos from a beautiful spring day at Kings Dominion. "Psst! Hey! Be a pal and bring me some of the Legend Porter, OK? Like maybe a whole keg! Thanks!" Like winged Icarus, they dared fly too close to the sun . . . . . . only to plummet to their doom! Well, I think I'll take a spin on Shockwave . . . what the hell? What happened to the greatest stand-up coaster in all of Virginia? Not even the Dippin' Dots guy could tell me. Where is guest relations? I wish to register a complaint! What? Anaconda and Hurler are both closed? Where is guest relations? I wish to write them a nice thank-you note! Grizzly, you were very rough and mean to me today. But I think I could find it in my heart to forgive you. Someday. Nice t shirt, though. What's better than a one-headed dinosaur? How about a two-headed dinosaur? The Clown Band consoled me after Grizzly roughed me up and left me for dead, like Leonardo DiCaprio. I understand that we have a few fans of KD's log ride on the site. Well, here you go. This band was part of the entertainment at the Spring Bloom Festival. They were a pretty good rock-and-blues outfit. The festival also features flags of many nations, . . . . . . which hide deadly lizards! Didn't hear the mushrooms singing that day . . . . . . but I did report the piano player for lighting up a cigar outside of a designated smoking area. I think we have some carousel fans, too. And this is just for you. The park does have a nice one. Well, just about time to head home. Here is proof that Dominator was, in fact, running that weekend. I didn't ride it myself because the line was a bit long by the time I got there. You're welcome, Kings Dominion! And thank you for reading.
