View Full Version : SCHOOL'S OUT! Kings Dominion Meetup June 24th
FishFishRevolution
April 10th, 2007, 10:48 AM
Okay so I was just talking with Mal, and I realized that a VA meet up at Busch Gardens would be a fantastic idea. It would take place somewhere in the May/June era, and would be open to all VA FFRer's. Busch Gardens is pretty close to VA beach and Richmond, just to give you an idea of where it is. Basically you hit richmond and go west on 64 until you hit the coast.
WHY BUSCH GARDENS???
Busch Gardens is offering a season pass for VA residents only, called a "Fun Card" that costs the same as a day pass! $55 for a season pass; THIS IS MADNESS! The card can be purchased online, and printed out at your house. You take that print-out to a machine at the front of the park and get your fun card. All you need is some proof of VA residency (driver's license, etc). Just make sure you buy them before May 31st because that's when the deal ends (but the passes purchased before then last until Sept 3). Just to be safe, we might want to have the meet up before May 31st.
I would be coming from the very top of VA, and could pick up the non-drivers along the way (mead, rai, richmond people, etc). Anyone game for this?
UPDATE: PLEASE READ
Looks like a King's Dominion meetup is scheduled for Sunday, June 24th.
Time: unknown
Members attending: ????????

Oh and before you guys say "no kingsdominon is bretr" think about the southern va people too. This will include them and make for a bigger meet up. Both parks have plenty of DDR machines and good roller coasters.

Actually, as a NC'er I could swing that. Likely would be fun and a good excuse to get out and see some family up that way.
Keep this thread posted as I would be interested in hearing more about this and who might head out .. ect

How do you figure that?
Busch Gardens has one interesting ride. One. Alpengheist.
Looks like by the 25th, another good one might be open. That makes two!
King's Dominion on the other hand? Volcano, Hypersonic, Anaconda, Flight of Fear, and apparently they've opened some new ones as well. They have over a dozen coasters.
Busch Gardens is a theme park. The things there are shows and events, not rides. Also known as: Incredibly boring.

Wow, I don't remember most of those rides, it's been a while. Shockwave was at Kings, right? Apollo's Chariot at BG. The one that they tore down at BG was awesome, Dragon something. I guess it's because of it's location (45min from VaBeach as opposed to 2 hours= a lot more memories) and the fact it's a classic place to take a date (lots of non-roller coaster attractions), I reminisce about BG more.

Apollo's chariot is a great ride, and always has a short line. Kings dominion may have more roller coasters, but you get to ride less of them less times because the lines are excruciating. Stop being so opinionated, Squeek. This is about FFR, not you, and certainly not about Roller Coaster penis.

That's right, stop having opinions, because you could have a lot more fun with an open mind. And we would have a lot more fun if you came along.

April 10th, 2007, 03:41 PM
OMG I might be able to go! I live really close there, I'll ask my parents! I hope they say yes >.<.
P.S. Alpengheist (or something like that) and Appolos Chariot are the best.
Edit: My mom just got home and she's thinking about it. I might bring some of my friends if you don't mind, this'll be awesome!
I'm trying to remember the rides... I know Alpengheist, Appolos Chario, Big Bad Wolf (SUCKS), Lochness Monster and I think one more. I've gone there a lot and can even show you to the good rides if you want me to. Escape from Pompei is awesome.

Actually, my dad apparently just realized that the VA Busch Gardens existed, and sort of suggested a trip there when we drive to New York to pick up my sister from Vassar.
So that'll be somewhere between May 20 and May 27.
My mom will probably be pretty pissed if I'm like, "OH WHAT A SURPRISE INTERNET FRIENDS. L8R FAM!"

Sorry Fish. I go to amusement parks to be amused.
I don't spend 50+ dollars just to sit and watch shows, or re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-ride the same four coasters over and over again because that's all they have there.
I've already done that twice, actually.
Last time I went to King's Dominion (two years ago), we managed to hit every coaster at least once in only 5 hours. We did a few of them multiple times because they were awesome and the lines were dead.
Don't know about you, but if I'm going to drop $50 or more, I want the trip to be worth more than 2 hours of rides.

Considering that ride opens May 25th and that's about the time you're planning on going, expect a 4-6 hour line for that ride.
I've been to Six Flags: Magic Mountain three times now. Once before their greatest ride opened, once a short while after their greatest ride opened, and once long after their greatest ride opened. Every single time the ride has been there, the line for it has been insane. 5 hours, even around dinnertime just a few hours before the park was to close.
So honestly, don't expect to be getting on that more than once in a single visit, unless you get to the park very early, it's the first thing you get to, and it's a very non-busy day at the park.
Even with the premise of this ride, I'm not too interested. Look up my favorite amusement parks and tell me if you see a trend in what I go to them for:
Six Flags: Magic Mountain
Cedar Point
King's Dominion
PS - In case you're wondering, the name of the ride is "X".

My dad was planning on getting Busch Gardens season passes this year instead of Kings Dominion (even though it's like 30 minutes from where I live).. but.. I'll see if I can go by that time. I'm not exactly sure though, since school ends on June 15th for me.
By the end of May though, I'm pretty sure Ryusei will be staying here with me too. xD So, if all goes well, we'll both be there.

Sorry Fish, but as a Virginia Beach resident, I'm gonna have to agree with Squeek here. Busch Gardens sucks ass. It's mainly a place for families to enjoy themselves; not have actual theme park fun. I've been to BG and KD more times that i can remember and I love KD more than BG. Sure BG is closer but I seriously suggest making this a King's Dominion trip. I might still go to BG, but I'll be one crabby Black guy. =/

Ya, that or Alpengeist is my favorite at Busch Gardens. King's Dominion is alright but it's so damn dirty. Cedar Point is crazy though, went there last summer in the rain and rode the Superman coaster 5 times straight. Everyone should go to Busch Gardens.

Its a pity that Volcano broke down before I got the chance to ride it.
I have ridden everything else in the park.
Flight Of Fear (used to be Outer Limits) is awesome.
And I think its the guy that owns Ceder Pointe that is buying it, not Busch.

1. Volcano is an awesome ass ride. The fact that you go 90 degrees up out of the volcano into an inverted Zero-G roll at 65/mph is reason enough to wait 2+ hours for the ride.
2. The ride is called Outer Limits: Flight of Fear. They never dropped the "Outer Limits" part of the name.
3.http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/03/02/AR2007030201404.html

and anyways long story short - one time i got extremely wasted and got really sick inside the park. i threw up, and some asshole called the paramedics. they gave us breathalysers...and that's that lol.
i scanned my "ban papers":

The date is set for June 24th for right now. Unless someone comes up with a better date, you bitches better start getting stuff ready.

i can do the 24th. but why a thursday? don't really matter, just wonderin.
also - no need to pick me up, i can drive. but we could definitely meet up somewhere in vabeach before we leave or something. ive got walkie-talkies we could use while on the road, that's always fun.
edit: just realized that picking a weekday is probably better, shorter lines maybe.
Chromer
May 20th, 2007, 11:31 PM
I have no idea why I picked the 24th. It just seems so secure to me. Also, it might be warm so is an adjacent trip to Water Country U.S.A. possible as well?
Depending on what happens I might be driving myself as well, but only if my truck gets fixed before then. =(
jamuko

While that would have been awesome, we had a car crisis and ended up leaving New York about 5 hours later than planned.
We're currently in Gettysburg, PA, and anyone who can get here in 20 minutes is welcome to come watch Heroes with me.
Busch Gardens may still be happening, but on top of car troubles, I managed to fall down the stairs in my sister's dorm carrying a suitcase and possibly sprained my big toe. =( It kind of hurts terribly to walk, so I'm quickly becoming the party pooper of our vacation.

JUNE 24th, however, is a Sunday.

I never said that being happy is something to look down upon, but when I'm in a terrible mood like I am right now, just hanging out with people who are all giddy and happy makes me kinda mad for some reason. :/
But we'll see.. I'm trying to work things out with Tosh and make things with him work out for the better. I guess, basically what happens in the next month totally depends on whether I feel I should go still. I mean, if Kat goes, I'll definitely try to get there.
And I still have the money issue. =_= Like, I've spent all my own money on different crap, most of it on this D.C. trip, and my parents don't really have a lot of money to spend and stuff, we're kinda in a hard situation with money as it is, and so, the probability of me going just kinda went down, a lot.
I really don't want to have my parents or anyone else pay for a pass either. It makes me feel really bad and I probably won't feel any better until I repay it.
Windscarredfaith
May 21st, 2007, 10:36 PM
Yeah, I dunno what the chances of me going are. I just asked my parents if they are willing to drive to VA for an amusement park but they were like, "Why not just go to Six Flags?" -____- So unless I can get Nate to get off work (which is not likely) to drive us, I dunno how I'll be able to go.
If Nyo makes it though, I'll definitely try harder. xD

- Fewer People in a Park but Earlier Closing Time?
or
- More People in a Park but Later Closing Time?
Also we need to wrap up the final location of the park. People this is the last and final vote so you need to respond. What will it be:
-King's Dominion?
or
-Busch Gardens Europe?
Once we get these established, I'll make a formal thread in maybe Chit Chat or something to let everyone know the final plans.

No, well be going early in the morning so we can have the whole day to have fun. That means that Jason (and perhaps Synth) will have to be here in Virginia before the park opens. Also, Ricky is going to have to drive the day before so he can get here on time. If I go with Chin (maybe) we're gonna leave out around 6 or 7 since's it's a 3-4 hour drive up to Doswell. You guys better start checkin your MapQuests. =P

I'm just like Nyo. It's not during the school year, and I get to chill with all my FFR buddies. Irl, I'm freaking out because it's so much to absorb because I just found this out now. So it's June 24th, on a Sunday, at Kings Dominion in Virginia Beach? I'll definatly have to bring friends. Family might attend, so they'll obviously be a buzzkill for me, dragging me all around the park. I might just say "EFF U B33CHZ IM4 CH33L WEET MAI INTRENAT FREENDS LLOZ." XD
Nyokou

Kings Dominion is actually in Doswell. xD
But yay! Well, you know.. if Kat can't come, then.. well.
._.
I dunno, but, I'm trying to get my friends to come. Oh, oh, oh, and anddddd these couple of other guys from Godwin! They're real cool and they play FFR too. xD I just don't know their screen names, argh. But, uhm, I'm probably coming with a fair amount of people as well, and maybe my brother too. He plays FFR as well. He used to be better than me..
But he saw me play Stepmania last week for the first time all year (school year) and he was like.. "omfg, I didn't know you were that good!" and I kinda just lol'd. xD

Also, if I go, I'll be wearing a FFR shirt. x]

As much as I love more people, I'm not so sure about random people who play FFR but we never know about. I'm just thinking about everyone's safety and well-being. The guys (Ricky, Myself, Chin, Jason) we can handle ourselves but the girls need to be careful. =P

Whoa, you go to Godwin? I know a few people who went there. (You wouldn't happen to know a girl who goes by "Mog" or "Lumin" would you? o_O I think she still goes there...) I also went and set up camp on the football field with a couple friends to watch the lunar eclipse last semester. =D
Anyway, my friends and I adjusted plans so that we'll probably be able to overlap with this after all. ^^ So I should be there as planned. Does anyone actually care if I'm there or not? XD Oh well, I'm trying to make sure I am regardless.

Actually, no, I don't go to Godwin.. I go to Deep Run.. and Henrico High for the Center for the Arts program. >_> I just -happen- to know some people there because my middle school split up between Godwin and Deep Run, and also I know some people from church who go to Godwin too and etc, etc. I just know people..
._.

May 26th, 2007, 12:26 AM
Aw, oh well. It makes sense though (darn boundary lines >.< ). My middle school split into two different high schools too, but then I was stuck in another one entirely due to weird district lines... but who cares anymore! Yaaaay college!
Anyway, I just thought it possible because I've had a lot of weird "small world" coincidences involving Richmond.
Nyokou
May 26th, 2007, 12:47 AM
Yeah.
I was actually talk to paexaea and we might have seen each other in VCC sometime, cause he kinda looks familiar. So who knows. And I also met this one guy on FFR who goes to Godwin, and he said he went to my elementary school, 7 years ago. >_> I thought that was neat cause..
I lived here for about 4 months 7 years ago, and then I moved to Florida, and now I'm back here.

June 24th, Kings Dominion.
Chromer
May 27th, 2007, 05:25 PM
Yeah June 24th, King's Dominion. Everyone bring coolers full of soda and sandwiches and stuff. We will be exiting the park around noon-ish to go eat lunch at the cars because KD's food is too damn expensive. Then we go back in and have some fun. Bring your bathing suits because we might hit up the water park if it's really hot. Also, someone needs to remember to bring my Faygo (Ricky, I'm looking at you...)
PS: Whose going to ride with me on the following rides I've never been on:
- Drop Zone
- Rebel Yell
- Hypersonic XLC
- Italian Job Ride
- Berserker
I'm afraid of rides that do things to my stomach (mainly Drop Zone)....

is drop zone anything like demondrop at cedarpoint?
ive rode everyride at cedar point, including the top thrill dragster.
Nothing can be more scary than that.
It made my eyes water so much because of the 120mph it goes.
But i got on it, and it didnt make it all the way up. and i like **** my pants.
almost.
so im up for everything an anything.
and ill bring enough faygo for everyone.
-paexaea-
May 27th, 2007, 07:43 PM
Well, it brings you up pretty high. You can see the whole park from the top. I mean, the whole park.
It's real suspenseful, than they drop you. It's pretty crazy.
jchinzilla
May 27th, 2007, 07:49 PM
i'll ride anything. i haven't been to KD in so long and don't remember many of the roller coasters.
the park opens at 10:30, do we all want to be there by 10:30?
also - we could start exchanging cell numbers, so when we get there we can find each other.
btw: this shall be fun as ****.

Drop Zone is the tallest freefall ride in America. Yes, it's taller than the Stratosphere in Las Vegas. That's why I don't want to ride it. :(

Nyokou
May 28th, 2007, 12:48 PM
Wtf? XLC is cool.. but, uh, anyway..
I brought up the Kings Dominion thing with my dad and he said "no", even though my mom said I could go. ._.
It really has to do with the money issue, rofl. Otherwise, I'd go.
Oh well, we'll see then.

I really don't want to go on the standing-up coaster (I think it was called the Shockwave or something?).
I'll go on pretty much anything else. I hate freefalls but I went on Drop Zone twice in a row last time I went to KD. Really, by the time it gets to the bottom of the drop I'm pretty much at my limit. If that thing lasted a single second longer I think I would pass out. XD
There is a wrench in my plans now, though. D: Turns out one of the friends I planned to go with is going to be in Miami during that time. I don't know the day he comes back yet, but it should be around the end of June. I don't really want to leave him out... :/ so unless we can manage to change this date to early July or so, I probably won't be able to make it to the meetup.

Ok, bump because it's dead and also, I've run into a problem, once again.
I was originally going to go with my whole family, but now it's just going to be me and my friend. The problem is, my mom doesn't want to pay the "parking fee" to get into the park just to drop us off, and so, I guess we kind of need a ride in and out, but I was thinking my mom could like wait across the street or something for us when we come out, so.. basically, I just need a ride IN the park, if that makes sense. xD
Anyone want to help us out? o.o

anyways if we can figure out a time and place to meet you, i could probably pick you two up.

It's in Doswell, I believe. :/
You could just look it up or something and use Mapquest to get directions. >_>;
Yeah, well, 10 dollars is a lot, lmao.
My mom isn't going to spend 20 bucks just to get in out and out two times for like a couple of minutes or something, besides.. my friend and I are going to need someplace to put our lunches and stuff.
