I wish they still had Kiddy Land with Nickelodeon themed rides. I hate the Peanuts theme.

@vwguy28 kings island is not the same place I went to as a kid late 80s the start of the 90s. Do you think that they tried to compete with cedar point, I do and when they did that they had no chance of beating them. Yes the rides at kings island were never on the same scale as the point but there was somthing great about it. Now It's just a 2ND class citizen I miss the old island and I think they tried too hard and it screwed them up forever. What do you think?

The original beast looks so beautiful, with the ponds next to it, to bad they where drained.

Learn to read Jackass! If you pause the video at 0:29 and look at the sign you will se that it says The BeastIE! NOT THE BEAST! The BeastIE is a JUNIOR wooden rollercoaster that is still at the park but it has been renamed several times since it`s opening!It was only called The BeastIE from 1980 to 2005 to honor The ORIGINAL BEAST witch has been open since 1979!HERE IS A LIST:Woodstock Express (2010 to ?)Fairly Odd Coaster (2006 to 2009)Beastie (1980 to 2005)Scooby Doo (1972 to 1979
