Another teaser from Snapchat. Not sure it means much. When do you think they're gonna announce this?

[DoinItForTheFame]

Depmuts!!

 

That's the actual clue here. You are reading "Stumped" wrong!! Clearly this is going to be a family attraction themed to depressed muts (puppies.)

If you rearrange the letters in that picture, add some and remove some, you get "RMC new for 2017"

When do you think they're gonna announce this?

They started a countdown on their website.

 

As of right now, 9 days 10 hours until the announcement!

Guys I think we're missing something...

Another marketing teaser has been sent to the local media. Here's the info from the Dayton Daily News.

 

A second clue to Kings Island’s newest attraction was delivered to this news outlet’s offices this afternoon.

 

Two Kings Island employees delivered a light blue die-cast Chevrolet pick-up truck with a bundle of twigs in its flatbed at about 1 p.m. today.

 

A message strapped to the bundle of twigs announced the park’s newest ride would be revealed at 10 p.m. July 28.

Can't wait to see the announcement! A modern-style wooden coaster would be a great fit at KI and definitely be one of the more intense rides at the park if not the most intense.

Can't wait to hear the announcement! I love Kings island has teased this all summer. Really wish more parks would do stuff like this!!

[KICoasterkev]

Wow this is awesome! Can't wait to see the announcement!

[RyanTPM]

Glad that the announcement is taking place earlier than usual,9 days is not a long time to wait!

[Vonni]

I love that it's another night time announcement!

[thrillseeker4552]

It's nice to see a date. Looking forward to it!

[DILinator]

Nice! I'll go see the premiere showing of Jason Bourne, and then come home and see what new hotness is coming to KI next year!

[PKI Jizzman]

I'll miss the announcement by a week. I'll see if I can find any more clues tomorrow at the park..

Interesting that there are no new trademarks filed by Cedar Fair. Is there a "code name account" for Kings Island?

Edited July 20, 2016 by PhantomPoster32

[RyanTPM]

^That is pretty interesting, maybe they're planning to use an existing name or one already trademarked.

[Skramp]

Im calling it now.....first ever suspended wooden roller coaster!!!

[Nwstone]

^no

[CaptainUnknown]

^^Agreed with ^ if it was an inverted wooden, it would be from RMC. All signs here point to GCI. I'm sticking by my call to call it Primal.

I am impressed with the way Kings Island has let little information out. I know we still have a week, By this time with cedar point we had a layout colors and a name. Well done Kings Island!
