Whats up gang!
I'm new to this site and will be new to the Chicago area in the upcoming summer. I grew up in Southern Ohio and Paramount's Kings Island has been my home park my whole life. I worked in PKI's food service dept for 8 years and I'm additcted to roller coasters. I have never been to SFGA before and I can't wait for opening day, lol. If you plan a sitewide trip, count me in. I'm also looking for any other pointers about the park or the area. Thanks.

Welcome PKI Foodguy, I think you will like our park because while I have never been to PKI in the past, SFGAm seems to compare pretty well. Have fun.

Do yourself a favor and don't move to Waukegan.
Find other options.
I have enjoyed the 3 times that I have visited PKI. While the coaster collection there isn't anything spectacular as a whole, just the whole park experience is very nice.
Welcome aboard.
I finally retired the Sarah Palin signature because she is now 100% irrelevant.

^Waukegan isn't one of the...say...nicest neighborhoods around.
Maybe move a little farther South. The area around Belvidere(sp?) Road isn't all too shabby.
