 Alrighty, so it's been confirmed. Firehawk is being removed from King's Island. A lot of you already knew that, a lot of you were predicting that, and it was of no surprise. So for those of us that guessed Firehawk, it's nothing special. Everyone in the Ghost of Community pretty much knew it was going to be Firehawk. There was a bit of speculation that it could have been Vortex. A couple of those teasers definitely hinted a little bit, I guess, at Vortex being removed. But definitely the biggest rumor was Firehawk, and it looks like that was correct. So someone sent me in this photo to use in today's video, so thank you to whoever you know who you are. Thank you to you for sending me in this photo. This is from way back when Firehawk was first being installed at King's Island, and then obviously I just added in a little flare of flies no more. Anyways, this has been one of, and is going to continue being, one of the biggest coaster rumors of the year, and of next year, and of however long it takes until King's Island gets its new coaster. And that's okay, because there's nothing wrong with good speculation. Now let's just not get a little too excited, because whatever's coming may not come in 2020. It may come in 2020. It may not though, and I'm going to tell you why. So Canada's Wonderland is a prime example of coasters being removed, and then plans being delayed, or a coaster coming a little couple years after. So who knows? But a lot of people are speculating that King's Island is up for a coaster in 2020. That timeline's a little interesting, because it does conflict with Cedar Point's coaster. Again, that is just a rumor as well. We don't necessarily know that Cedar Point is getting a coaster in 2020, but a lot of people are assuming that a coaster is coming to both King's Island and Cedar Point in 2020. Now, here's why I'm hoping that's the case, because that would be really interesting. Two theme parks in the same state getting big coasters in 2020. And I'm telling you, if King's Island's getting a coaster in 2020, 2021, or 2022, it's going to be massive. They just removed a coaster to make room for another coaster. Now, a lot of people are strictly on the B&M Giga hype train now. And I'm definitely going to be one of them. I definitely do think, even though something down deep inside me is saying it's not going to be a Giga, it's not going to be a Giga, it's probably the Giga dive theory that has me going it's not going to be a Giga anymore, because I don't want to hop on that Giga bandwagon. But I definitely do think a Giga is coming to King's Island. It's been talked about, it's been hinted, it's been teased. It's been literally every aspect of the coaster community that King's Island Giga has somehow crept in there or into a conversation. Now, what's interesting is I wouldn't necessarily rule out a wing coaster. And here's why. So a wing coaster has also been somewhat teased at King's Island. It's appeared here and there. And breaking some records on a wing coaster could be very easy. And taking away a record from Gatekeeper, for example, isn't as nasty as building this awesome brand new sparkly, massive Giga coaster in the same state as Cedar Point that has a Giga coaster that is now being slightly overshadowed by the newer Giga's other than Leviathan. I think Millennium Force is starting to be greatly overshadowed by the Giga coasters and adding another one in the chain and just in the same state could be a little detrimental to the Icon Millennium Force. So that's the only theory I have for King's Island not getting a Giga and possibly a wing coaster. So I wouldn't take that too seriously as that's not necessarily too valid of an argument to argue against King's Island getting a Giga coaster. Now, another thing that works in favor of King's Island getting a Giga coaster is the fact that King's Island really does need that world record breaking roller coaster. The attractions that King's Island has added over the years since 1995, which is, I guess some could argue, has led to them not increasing in attendance numbers significantly like the other Cedar Fair parks is the smaller scale attractions. They've removed roller coasters like Son of Beast and replaced them with smaller scale yet really high thrill attractions. No insult to their attractions. They're absolutely amazing, especially Banshee and Mystic Timbers, but they haven't been out of this world. Wow. And I think this is where it's King's Island's time to have that wow coaster come in. And I'm really excited because it's something that could finally boost attendance significantly at King's Island, the boost that they're looking for. Whereas events like Winterfest have been their biggest boost in the coming years. So this is where it gets even more interesting because it's going to be a big topic of discussion for years to come until they finally announce what's coming to King's Island or start teasing it for 2020 is what are they going to build? I mean, we're not even looking at other coaster models like Mock or Intamin, even though I'm never going to put my foot fully or my my support fully behind Intamin at a Cedar Fair park anytime soon. We aren't discussing other manufacturers, it seems to just be the BNM Giga. So I want to hear from you guys down below because all I've been hearing lately is BNM Giga. What do you guys think is next for King's Island after removal of Firehawk? We know that something has to come. Cedar Fair never usually usually I use in quotations removes a coaster and doesn't replace it, especially at one of their top parks like King's Island. So what do you guys think is coming to King's Island in 2020? We'll say for now. And and why I want to hear what you think is coming and why because I'm actually really interested in this as this isn't my home park. And yes, I don't have the best knowledge of King's Island. But I want to hear why and if you're a Giga supporter, I want to hear why as well. I really want to hear these arguments. I want to get a better understanding of King's Island and what's next as this is going to be a really big topic of discussion moving forward.
