FYI - While much thanks goes out to TPDave for posting the photos, keep in mind that's actually my report from Facebook just reposted here on the forum.

Looks like KD's putting the Doll Factory in for Halloween Haunt. Wonder how it will turn out; better or worse than the Knott's version?

I know EXACTLY where my passport is!

Ha! Yeah just like all the other reports that have been posted by moderators in this thread, it's all the photo's and captions that Robb put up on facebook throughout the day.

Looks like a awesome time at KD! I'm so excited about heading to the park Thursday to finally ride Intimidator 305 and I'll also get the Dominator credit!

I've gone pantless!

Yes, when it comes to trip updates, it takes a village, people. (Or was that "it takes the Village People"?)

ECB was a great day--my thanks, again, to Robb and Elissa and the staff at KD for putting this event together. I-305 rules both day and night!

Thanks again, Robb and Elissa! East Coast Bash was awesome, and I can't believe it actually cost less than a normal one-day admission ticket to Kings Dominion!

I've got to say that the TPR Quest game was a great addition, and the prizes were really cool. I thought once to ask during Q&A if they have a "boneyard where they keep stuff like those 1990s maps lying around (and if the old animatronic Yogi Bear and other Hanna-Barbera-related park items live there in some form).

The only thing that made me cringe (besides riding Hurler) were the handful of boos when park management answered the question about the trims on Intimidator 305. It kind of seemed... non-TPR, if that makes any sense.

Best line of the day, from the Grizzly operator at the mic during morning ERT: "We haven't seen this many people in the station at once in a loooooong time!"

I said, young man... put your pride on the shelf,
And just go there... to the TPR Boards,
I'm sure they, can, help, you, to-day..."

Oh, trust me, I'm probably going to hell for a LOT more than that. My handbasket is monogrammed 'n everything.
