Kings Island - Backpacks

Hey everyone, I'm heading to Kings Island next week (They have a deal going on where you can bring a friend for 20 bucks) and I haven't been there in years. I was wondering if they have any rides where you have to put your bag in a locker, such as TTD here at CP. Kings Dominion has the boxes like on Magnum for each train so youre never required to put your stuff in a locker. Does anyone know if Kings Island has required locker rides?? Thanks in advance for your help.

Firehawk is the only major ride I remember you needing to buy lockers for.

Lockers are also very sparse in that park. I think the only places I've seen them are by Firehawk and at the front gate. I spent an hour trying to find a place to put my jacket last year.

There are lockers near Tomb Raider (or whatever the @$%! it's called now), and also of course at Boomerang Bay.

In the tradition of CF's highly creative process of re-naming formerly licensed rides, Tomb Raider is now called "Top Spin in a Dimly-Lit Shed."

LOL. I guess it would be too much to add to the name, "With a Formerly Working Music and Special Effects Program". ;)

^ That would be the footnote, or after the asterisk.

If you plan on bringing a huge backpack with almost everything you have from your home, then you will have a hard time getting around the park and onto rides, etc.

Im just saying what I see all the time at parks, people bring sooo much junk in, and they probably dont even use all of it.....:)

That's why God invented fanny packs! :)

Wait, I'm confused. Didn't God also invent dignity as well?

Of course you know, any British visitors to this site are laughing their asses off at this moment... ;)

From my experience the only rides that didn't let you bring a souvenir cup, backback, etc. were Flight of Fear and Firehawk. As much as it sucks to have to buy the locker, at least those two are right next to eachother. You can carry your pack to Diamondback, Beast, Drop Tower, Invertigo, and so on (using the bins/surrounding area), and then buy the locker for FH and FoF.

Insecure much? :)

I find that a decent pair of cargo shorts keeps both my belongings and my manhood where they need to be. :)

LOL! I agree. Though my wife, on the other hand, chooses a fanny pack, and I don't stand in her way. Nor do I object to her carrying a few extra items of mine. :)

Do they still even make fanny packs?

Pfft! Don't even get me started on the "'BARELY spin in a dimly-lit shed, with a formerly working music and special effects program that lasted a whole heck of alot longer than it does now" ride! And to think I was worried about losing the pizza and breadsticks that I had just eaten.

Or they could just call it "Lame Ass Dark Ride 1"... ;)

Hey now! I like the Crypt. In fact, I'm going back this Saturday and can't wait to ride it. :)

I've been told that I only like the Crypt because I never rode it when it went upside down 9 times. So... my opinion may not matter :)
