Cincy at UNK's arena. Enjoy me some Covington after a reds/cubs game.
Really, you're in Indiana and never been to Kings Island. I remember all the rides they shut down.
BOOOOOO.
Kentucky Kingdom was always Kings Island's litte brother.
My man, you're missing out.
Mehh. I've done Six flags in a few different cities, done cedar point. Never saw the big difference as a kid.
King's Island folks look down to Six flags.
Sorry OP, we just bogarted your thread. Northern KY and Cincy area is were it's at.
Truly the worst amusement park of all time. I would much rather go to Holiday world or Kings Island. Both better by good amounts.
I've never been to Holiday world.
Edit: I have been there. I had to look it up. I was only 7 at the time and living in Seymour IN., I didn't recognize the name.

You were too young to be there in its prime. Right as Six Flags took over the first year or two was the tits.
Could be the case. I know as a kid I used to love going, and now you'd have to pay me to go. My friends and I still plan trips to Kings Island every summer, though.
Yeah it turned into a shit hole. At first you thought it was awesome you didn't have to wait on any lines, then a girl got her feet cut off. Rollar coaster at New York New York in Vegas was surprisingly good, shitfaced of course, but still it was good.
That is one thing I never got to do, get drunk at Six Flags. Six year old Jimbo couldn't handle his alcohol very well
Last time I went to Kings Island, I got so hammered, the wife made me promise to not drink in public again.
I think that lasted 2 weeks.
Then Kentucky football started
I thought Holiday World was smaller than Kentucky Kingdom. It rivals Kings Island? That is a bold statement sir. I will have to look into.
Loved Kings Island. The "racers" was my absolute favorite ride. ROde that muthrfcker about 50 times in a row.............The Beast made me piss. Look as if you were gonna get your head cut off.
Yeah I like the racer because there is rarely any line at all. Always go backwards too.
Love me some King's Island. I know it's revamped and whatnot, but ever since that girl had her leg cut off on the Hellevator, Kentucky Kingdom just doesn't have the appeal anymore. Also, I'm an adult so that probably has a lot to do with it.
Kings Island is awesome, it's almost as good as Cedar Point. A good 300 foot tall coaster is really all that park is missing.
C'mon, man! It's NKU. I should know.... I went there for like 2 weeks before I dropped out.
Forward or backwards racer? The Beast is and always will be the best! I also like Vortex. Pissed me off when they retired King Cobra though. I can't believe that was almost 20 years ago. I don't think I ever rode Son of Beast before it closed.
Cincinnati has been playing their home games at NKU all season while their arena is being renovated (they are less than 10 miles apart). UC actually had the longest current "home" winning streak at 39 until Wichita State beat them on Sunday. Funny thing is they had been playing on NKU's floor all year but for some reason decided to bring their court over from UC to play on for the Wichita State game. Bet they won't do that again! Another fun fact, both arenas are named for banks. UC at Fifth Third Arena and NKU at BB&T Arena. So I guess BB&T gets the upper hand on this financial deal.
You're showing your age with this. Screeching eagle, spook barn, I think I have some old polaroids from that place.
Ahhh OK...I started reading your post and was like "No I watched them play at home last freaking week!!!" Why bother moving the floor over?
I haven't been in well over 10 years. Apparently it closed in 2009 after a second major accident.
