Holiday World (HW) Discussion Thread

McDonalds, Subway, Taco Bell, as well as a few others that I don't know of, have coupons for online promo codes. Im not too sure on grocery stores or supermarkets since the only one in my town (Walmart, ugh) does not have them. Also, the park's website itself runs pretty good deals. If you have a coaster club membership you may get a deeper discount. I have yet to find a better discount than what we get when we show our tpr cards at guest services. If I remember right it drops the ticket price down to 28 dollars or so. -
Congratulations to both of ya.

What I was curious about and the pov doesn't show is 1) will it go back up the first drop hill and 2) will it have enough speed to make it back up if so or will there be another chain. The pov doesn't really show if there'll be a last run backwards into a brake run or if it shoots back up the first hill.

Kings Island (KI) Discussion Thread

RMC and their stuff is awesome, but that would cause quite the uproar and would be almost sacrilegious to the Coaster enthusiasts out there if they were to do that. I think there would be a lot of unhappy people and negative backlash if they were to let RMC redo The Beast. -

looking at the pics in that blog post, it sure does seem to be the Eagle Flyers from the 4th of July section. I wonder if they'll reclaim that space for something other than a ride or replace it with a new flat ride possibly? -
No, it was a death caused by the lap bar not in the correct position and the ride op not stopping the ride to adjust it. Gerts is saying they are innocent because it was a ride operations error and that they actually made seat belt anchors into the cars but Six Flags chose not to finish installing seat belts until after the accident.
-
I read that earlier and if what Gerstlauer saying is true about the seatbelt anchors being pre-installed with the ride and SF chose to not install the actual belts and buckles that makes SF look pretty bad for not installing them in the first place and then right after the accident when the ride was shut down they go ahead and install them. They must have edited the article, because now there is no mention of pre-installed seatbelt anchors... >_> I read the article wrong and misunderstood, apparently the seat-belt anchors were built into the train cars not pre-installed, sorry about that.

Its a shame the loop isn't centered over top of Voyage, how cool would that be to be at the top looking down at a Voyage train or be on the Voyage and look up and see people hanging upside down above you, there would have to be some kind of netting but man that would be cool. -

oops sorry for double post, had a brain & hand disconnect, That first article is great, not sure who wrote that but I live in Louisville and I can 100% confirm that police were not shooting people, no one was walking around in masks, and in fact it was a quiet night so there was a whole lotta uproar over something that never happened when the kid posted the flyers about the "purge".
