I finally got to ride Snoopy's Soapbox Racers yesterday. It was more intense than I could have ever imagined in a good way. I'm 6'3" and saw posts on season pass holder FB group warning it might be a hard fit for taller folks. But I fit fine on it and its one of the most comfortable coasters in terms of seating in the entire park. Sadly my 5 year old twin nephews were afraid to ride it but my Sister and I both thought it was great. I haven't rode Good Gravy yet but all the youtube vlogs I've watched on it look amazing. Love the Grandma's house queue theming and the giant cranberry sauce can tunnel. Both parks hit a home run with both of these.
I've been on both. They are essentially the same. Felt that Holiday World had a better line queue, but Snoopy's Soap Box had better outdoor theming. I thought the Soap Box trains stood out more than the Gravy Boat trains.. which is surprising.
I liked the Camp Snoopy and Soap Box Racers, but I really don’t think that the new area was ready to open yet. The playground area is nice with keeping the covered open air roofing. The lack of shade and seating for adults was sadly missed. These are things that can easily corrected. The playground area is great to get the kids out of the hot sun and a place to wind down from waiting in lines.
The social media first reviews weren’t great, but our 4th visit it seems KI has stepped up the food portions that to be expected.
They had to just to keep future dining plans purchases. See you at Kings Island !
I have a question that I think would make for an interesting topic for discussion - the Son of Beast station was not tore down with the ride. What was the reason it was left standing? Also, it’s easily accessible by going over a gate in the Bat’s queue - have guests ever ventured to it when they weren’t supposed to? What future plans do you think the park has for the station? Thanks guys!
I've only ridden Snoopy's Soap Box Racers, so that's my vote
Thank you for using my listener question!!!! My kids love the Camp Snoopy addition/overlay!!!
The Kite Eating Tree and Beetle Bugs could definitely be incorporated. Space Buggies could have the rockets switched out to Jeeps or some 4x4 vehicles to also be incorporated.
Hey Ryan, they did paint the snoopy ears black by the flag pole as an update for attention to detail.
Our new drinking game... Will ryan complain about the hush puppy?
I may need rehab.
I’ve moved on to the bun-less hot dog at Pig Pen’s.
Next Tower Topics: Lets talk to Nick Gaskins.
Bobcat!
Ryan, and Don, be VERY careful what you say anymore. You might end up banned from the park for 5 years for an honest mistake.
What makes you say that?
@@TowerTopics the whole Nick thing. I don't really want to put it out on YT comment section. Maybe call Nick if you don't know what happened. I guess there is a bit more to the story than I knew of this morning, but what I heard from Jeff and Lynn is still not a banable offense. It was most likely that they were just looking for a reason to ban him. I think it was mostly because of what he said about the prestige pass, and the VIP lounge. Maybe just talk to Nick to get the whole story.
