i waited an hour and a half for x flight then it broker down and they kicked us outside of the ride so i waited outside of the ride for an hour then they opened the ride then i waited 15 minutes then wile i was sitting in the train something went wrong and i had to wait another 5 to 10 minutes. it was worth the wait. and yes i would wait that long again to hit a coaster for the first time.

Im serious, 8 hours, the line was all the way out and back to the entrance of vortex, some people had to wait 10 for it on opening day.
Its true....the line for FOF on its opening day reached a staggering eight hours..partly due to crappy one train operation for its first day....and thats when it had OTSR's...

2 1/2 hours for X-Flight Saturday and eventually gave up because it had been 20 minutes since the train had come out of the station. What a disappointment!

I waited 3.5 hours for MF. It broke down twice, and both times a worker had to travel to the top of the lift hill in this little car that carried him up to the top.
I also waited 4.5 hours for Volcano: The Blast Coaster at PKD the first day that it opened. It was 98 degrees outside with almost 100% humidity and I felt like dieing. Then, the PKD staff came around with lemonade, which really pissed me off because they brought around the most expensive drink to rip us off during our misery. The staff should have brought around free cups of water to all the waiting guests. It was torture.

Why would you wait 8 hours for 1 time on Son Of Beast,you would have to spent pretty much a whole day at Kings Island without riding anything else??? Any way my longest wait time for any coaster was MILLINNIUM FORCE 3 hours and 50 minutes I also think this has been brought up before.

My longest wait ever for a coaster was the most unbelievable 6 hours for Millennium Force. The wait was worth it!
I would wait no longer than 1 hour for any ride! what I would do is just go on a week day try TUE thru Thurs!
Actually I have to confess I did wait 3 hours once-- it was for Shivering Timbers, on the first the day the ride opened. MA being a smaller park, we'd already done everything else that we wanted, so waiting in the ST line seemed as good a thing as any.... ordinarily an hour is the top limit.
I waited 3 hours for Raging Bull on a Saturday in August the first year it was open.
Only 2 hours for Skull Mountain
Close to four hours for MF last year

When FoF first opened in 1996 the line was about 7 hours. Now with the lap bars on a saturday the line is about a hour and a half.
I've wait 3 1/2 for MF, but with it breaking down. 2 1/2 for MF regular, and 2 for RB.
