Re: Kings Island | "Unknown" | "Unknown"
See, I'm still drawn back to what Ouimett said to those that attended Gatekeepers Media Day. It was something along the lines of: "I have something big for Ron to do as his next project". An invert, no matter how tall, just doesn't seem like the scale of what he could have been alluding too. While an interesting custom layout for an Invert would be nice, I really don't see that happening there anymore when I really think about it and what all they have been posting randomly on their Facebook page.
It may have been a red herring, but the photo of Diamondbacks drop with "Would you like some more of this?" has really stuck out. They already have the longest wooden coaster in existence there, why not bring in the longest steel as well? They HAVE the land for it, and nabbing the tallest and longest invert just kind of sounds lame, like really **** lame. A Giga, given what they have done to the sister park, just sounds appropriate.
As for how the scarecrows could be added in with what they have shown so far, I present to you this:
Actually, letting my imagination run wild has its uses! This could be a ride tied into a future/possible past Cedar Point Haunt. The story could be about camping in the woods by some rebellious youths who ignore the warning signs posted in the trees. The rebellious youths start to take down all the scarecrows out of boredom and being the little hellions that they are. The scarecrows are there to help ward off the Banshee. Eventually, they get caught in the grasp of the banshee and get taken on a wild ride through the woods (granted there aren't a whole lotta trees back there anymore). Eventually they escape and live to tell the tale.
That sounds plausible, no?
