I've not had a chance to ride it, either it's been down or the line has always been down to the bottom of the stairs.
-
I mean... it's ten bucks.
Oh, I have no issue with it, just surprised me to hear that there was a charge for it now but glad to see the money is going to Give Kids The World, I miss their coaster-thons at Kings Island.
-
Yup! Here's the link to the tickets.
Wait, what, they're charging for it now? I went two years ago and would have gone last year but had to go through stupid Divorce classes on the same weekend, but the first year they didn't charge for it.

^ I agree, I was like damn it, I had it completely wrong after I saw the ending, I thought I had it spot on.

Elissa that was awesome and as a die hard SW fan I was cracking up at your comments like non-Death Star ship thingy and the other ones.... I definitely need to get down there now and glad to hear that newbies to Star Wars can ride it and not be lost and be able to enjoy it.
-
If that's true, that's a shame because I never got a chance to ride those but not surprising since they're in a weird spot honestly.

My gf and I and her kids went and seen Knives Out, awesome movie and highly recommend it. I thought I had it figured out by the end but I was completely wrong. I was sitting there for like 10 mins after going over it in my mind like what the heck.... one of the best movies of the year.

Crap, sorry for the double post.
Yes, they're no longer offering that, I called and asked them before I went down this summer.

I bet if the city and park were to put their heads together and come up with something and promote it nationally and promote the hell out of it they could create a huge big time affair.
-
You gotta love KK poking fun at KI for announcing they're closing Vortex with this tweet. I didn't put it together until now.

Ed has made bashing remarks towards T3 too and laughs at them. Ed is a very cool guy.
-
It's definitely going to leave a big gap in that area from Windseeker over to Mystic Timbers and The Beast.
-
The poster doesn't say but is this included with season passes?

Disney never seems to amaze me, parts of Epcot were created back before today's technology and so it's gotta be tough to hit the reset button and come up with ideas for a whole new set of technology that the future maybe like.

Anyone that’s not an entitled enthusiast that feels the need to overly critique this coaster and can enjoy it because its going to be fun regardless of stats feel free to reach out to me when you make your visit to ride it. I live nearby and would love to come catch a ride or two with you when you’re at my home park.
^ Love this!

Kentucky Rambler @ Beech Bend Park, I don't think my butt stayed in the seat at all, a very fun ride.

^ I visited on a Sunday earlier this year (early June) and the Sunday of Labor Day weekend last year.
The only lines I saw was a half hour for Lightning Run and T3 due to one train operations. Storm Chaser was a complete walk-on all day.
The Storm Chaser area is an area that they really need to work on, that whole corner area from between Thunder Run and Mile High Falls back to Storm Chaser is pretty empty and is a long walk to get back in that area for two rides and then Eye of the Storm is just kinda out there on it's own not even tied to either one of those areas. They really need to redo that whole back area and make it one cohesive area and make it to feel like its actually part of the park.
-
They run deluge so slow that I never really want to climb the stairs to ride it, it's a shame they don't redo it to where you load at the ground and they have a moving conveyor belt like Wildabeast.
-
Looks interesting but was hoping for something other than another water coaster, I thought for sure that they might actually be doing something with the big hole left behind by the removal of Pilgrims Plunge.
-
I really liked it, yeah it was kind of uneventful until you got to the elevator lift but man what a nice way to cool down on a hot day. The drop was awesome, I think it just needed the roller coaster part like its counterpart in Europe which I'm blanking on the name now.
-
If I were a park and enthusiasts ruined all the excitement by snooping and taking pictures of blueprints, I would forego any teasers too, just as an FU. I hope they don’t even make an announcement and just open the damn thing with zero fanfare and let enthusiasts lose their GD minds for the next eight months.
Nobody was “snooping.” It’s all public record. Kings Island knows exactly what they are doing when they file those blueprints. Besides, the park is LEGALLY REQUIRED to file those blueprints. Go yell at the politicians who made the FOIA if you are really so upset about this.
Agreed, when there's a filing for a local government permit like in this case then the documents become a part of the open records law this is how the media is able to get information for news stories and the general public can also request access to anything covered by the open records laws.

Maybe they are finally doing something with the Pilgrims Plunge remnants???

we went here for a week on vacation when I was young and that was back when Superstition Mountain was still a dark ride, it was such a fun week.... I lost count of how many times I rode that thing. This breaks my heart because I haven't had a chance to share this with my sons.
