You know, I have been using that acronym forever and just now realized how funny it sounds! :)

Why are the operating costs down so much?

I would think they would go up every year.

Swoosh said: "I did find it strange that Kinzel would use such a "blanket statement" when it's not entirely true."

Remember Swoosh....even IF WoF/OoF posted HUGE gains, it's still more than offset by what's happening at "The Big Three" of CP, Dorney, and KBF. When CF gets down to hammering out figures and such, any noticeable gains in KC's attendance will likely be reflected in next year's Cap-Ex....

bill, had a great time at WoF....and at the BBQ place down the street...:)

Fury, it's not the operating costs that are down -- it's operating income (profits at the park level).

And I stand corrected on August guys, that's what I get for being a Floridian (most area schools kick in two weeks from now and Disney goes into "value" season on August 23).

It's only value season if you're local!
