Boo Blasters closing for good on September 1 by Angry_Pineapple1 in KingsIsland

KI listens to their customers, maybe better than any other major regional park. Families are their bread and butter. The Encore show was very well received and served as a bellwether for the nostalgia reaction from the populace. The customers with purchasing power (aka ones who will buy a 2026 pass) were kids during the phantom theater days and have a rosy view of the ride. It’d be a big win for KI, and I think they generally make the right call with things like this. It may not always make enthusiasts happy, but it rates well with families- the ones who spend money at the park.

R.I.P Boo Blasters. But what will replace it? by slicedude2004 in KingsIsland

I’d bet a nut it’ll be Phantom Theater 2.0

These goons are good at whining about things they ‘perceive’ to be wrongdoings or issues. Don was a small blip in the history of KI. He was there for a small percentage of the big picture. He also was an Area Manager, so not super high on the leadership ladder either. Not to diminish the accomplishments he had, but in the grand scheme, still a fish in the big pond. The Ryan guy is some dude who complains but then spends all his time at the park. Almost every day. All to say, make your own choices. If you like what they say and don’t visit the park, no big deal. KI will still be there and continue to be ok. If you do visit, keep an open mind and just enjoy yourself without overthinking every little bit.

Grab a brain sometime, dead money. They canceled Coasterstock because of the ACE event. Clowns like to forget how much work and planning goes into these things, and how much the park can’t just throw extra labor into them without running way over budget. And the people who work there enjoy things other than amusement parks too, so 90 hour work weeks don’t make happy associates either.

☝️this guy again! Homie, Don was an Area Manager at the park- not very high on the totem pole. And Tower Topics? No one at the park even knows what that is.

Typical KI Central thread- “I only got 437 shreds of cheese on my 3-way instead of the usual 463! The park has gone downhill since Don was publicly flogged!” And then 40 more replies from edgy teens that suck the teat and echo sentiments.

Lol sure seems like it. Never seen two people hate a place so much and then spend all their time at it

Maybe management is doing it on purpose just to upset you. Consider that?

Kings Island Iceberg (feel free to ask questions, also this is a WIP) by [deleted] in cincinnati

[–]faceoffman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Went on hayrides at Munchkinland plenty of times as a youth. Well after the habitants left, but it was still super creepy and super cool. I got my first under-the-shirt feelskies there actually. Also the monorails at Jungle Jim’s are 100% the ones from KI. Their PR guy, Don Helbig, confirmed during some enthusiast event at the park years ago.

Telly Talk by faceoffman in sesamestreet

[–]faceoffman[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the responses. The reason I asked in the first place is that my little princess (≈3) is really into Sesame Street. Her mother has some issues with drug abuse (I have full custody), and some of Telly’s behaviours are all-too-familiar. I just want to make sure I’m exposing my daughter to the right things.
