Coaster Birthdays - Tumblr Posts
Happy birthday to our very own Arrow Dynamics suspended coaster, The Bat at Kings Island! My boy is turning 31 this year!
Oh yeah! And happy birthday to Vortex this year! It would have been 37 years old today!
Happy 33rd birthday to Adventure Express!
(I swear, there's so many KI coaster birthdays in April XD)
*deep breath in*
HAPPY 45TH BIRTHDAY TO THE BEAST!!!
Gotta be one of my favorite wooden coasters lol
Happy 7th birthday to Mystic Timbers!
I rode this coaster the year it opened and it has stuck with me ever since, becoming a must-ride every time I go to the park. It's amazing to think that a whole 7 years has passed since we got this ride and FINALLY found out what's in the shed!
Happy 25th birthday Invertigo!
With 2 days left to go before Kings Island opening day, I want to wish a happy birthday to Diamondback and Banshee, which are turning 15 and 10 years old respectively today!
GUYS-
I ALMOST FORGOT-
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE RACER, WOODSTOCK EXPRESS, AND KINGS ISLAND AS A WHOLE!!!
Surprise happy birthday message for Manta at SeaWorld Orlando! This B&M flying coaster opened today in 2009 and is officially 15 years old today!
I've never been to SeaWorld & unfortunately have never gotten the chance to ride this coaster myself, but I *am* planning on going to SeaWorld Orlando on June 2 (and Busch Gardens Tampa on June 3), so with luck I'll be able to (finally) experience this awesome ride!
HAPPY OPENING DAY FOR SNOOPY'S SOAP BOX RACERS!!!
In it's honor, I present the only photo I have of it taken from the queue of Mystic Timbers

May your opening day be smooth and your lines plentiful from popularity (but not too plentiful because I know that nobody wants to wait in a 3-4 hour line for a family coaster lmao)!
(Also bonus: Happy opening day to Hyperia at Thorpe Park, and happy birthday to Thorpe Park itself! Many thanks to @rose-grimm-spirit-does-dumb-shit for letting me know a couple of days ago what's going on across the pond lol)
Oh yeah! I almost forgot!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE SMILER!!!
To the ride that got me into roller coasters, theme parks, and theme park lore, I hope you have a smooth day of operation today! May your dispatches be fast and your queue plentiful from popularity! Thank you for getting me to where I am today!
Happy birthday to Orion at Kings Island, one of only 7 giga coasters in the world! I rode it yesterday and had one of my smoothest rides yet! It's certainly a top tier coaster in my books!
