    The Bat history...if I remembered correctly, The Bat had many operational issues since its 1981 opening and shut down for good after the during the 1983 season, then dismantled in 1985 with the intent of building a new version. Before that happened, Paramount purchased KI and then gave the go ahead to proceed with the build (rebuild) of The Bat, but like the other rides, it would be themed after Paramount films, in this case... Top Gun. When Paramount sold KI to Cedar Fair 2006, Top Gun theme (along with the other Paramount themes) had to be removed by a certain date. Trying to keep with a jet theme, Top Gun was renamed to Flight Deck. In 2014, Flight Deck was repainted and renamed to The Bat celebrating its 30th anniversary of the original The Bat.

      My daughter was the same. Before our first theme park I got a coaster game on our VR. If you watch it while sitting your brain actually makes it feel like you’re on the ride. It freaked her out, but she knew she was planted on the chair doing it. She did it a bunch of times & said she was finally ready to try a coaster. We started small with the kiddie ones, then the not so intense woodies. She has now graduated to twisted colossus at Magic Mountain & loves them! Some still freak her out (she refuses to do X2) but for the most part it helped her get over that intense panic.

    The Orion is hands down the best coaster in kings island!
    1. The INSANE DROP
    2. The coaster goes SO FAST that it's difficult to keep your eyes open, especially when you're in the front seat
    I rode this with my twin brother 3 times yesterday and it was that good. I want to go back there for that coaster.

    When I was young we went to Kings Island constantly. They used to have a monorail safari ride near King Cobra. For a few years there was a Days of Thunder ride that was just a theater but all the individual seats moved to the view of the cockpit. In front of the Eiffel Tower was a large fountain display. They would let people ice skate when it froze. And the Beast? Hands down the best wooden coaster I have ever ridden in my life and I have ridden many. It's a full on experience. The American Racer was grand also, going in reverse was a blast.

    Gotta give a shout out to the BAT! As someone who loves that free-swinging action of suspended coasters (Vortex at CW is my hometown one), the Bat seems to be a fine specimen indeed, twisting and turning through the trees. Also liking the old school traveling nature of the Beast. Thanks Robb!
