- They would actually consider closing down one of the BIGGEST and BEST
- roller-coaster in the nation in the BEAST? considering it has been the #1
- roller-coaster by many ACE members, I can't believe them doing that...
- I haven't been to either park, but I was reading an amusement park guide
- that listed the coasters King's Island had and it paled in comparsion (lack
- of good wooden coasters othen than the Beast and too many rides I get sick
- on like the stand-up's and twisting coasters) to their I would think major
- competition in the area upstate there in Cedar Point. I would think Cedar
- Point would kick King's Island BIG TIME especially if they did get rid of
- the beast since Cedar Point had (according to the book) lots of good
- roller-coasters I enjoy (wooden, suspended) like the Magnum XL-200 and the
- Mean Streak.
- I might plan a trip to that area in the near future and wanted to know if
- Cedar Point was a lot better park than King's Island, espeically in the wake
- of them might taken out the Beast (what would they replace it with?).
