Wow people thought a smoke ring was a UFO? I saw volcano fire go off and then one of these smoke rings as well. It probrably is a normal occurence. Plus how is something clear with smoke edges around it floating in air a UFO? Maybe for a second it looked like one but after a few moments people should be able to figure out that it is just smoke. However, Kings Dominion got a lot of attention which is good for the park(although they have tons of visitors anyway).

For a number of years I went to Kings Dominion every summer, and actually saw a few rings a day pretty similar to that (mainly at the concert pavilion tucked near the parking lot). None stayed in one spot that long, but we saw rings that floated around for 5 minutes or so every year.

when i first went to KD my brother and i were in line and saw a similar ring. i asked what it was, and he said it's a smoke ring, and he pointed to the fire that had just burst out.

The same exact effect (smoke ring) occurred at Six Flags Great Adventure last night just over El Toro. Weather conditions were similar and the ring looked exactly the same as the smoke ring in the video from Kings Dominion. It too, lasted about 10 minutes, slowly drifting across the sky.

GA's Bizarro ride, which is near El Toro, has two flame throwers that are very similar to the flames that shoot out of the top of Volcano. At least now, I know that I (and the others who also saw it) were not going crazy and it was not some strange aircraft from nearby MacGuire Air Force Base.

MATTHEW…YOU HIT THE NAIL ON THE HEAD. IT IS SILLY. I'M CERTAIN THE ET WAS 'CLOAKING' ITSELF BUT THE RING WAS VISIBLE DUE TO THE INCLEMENT WEATHER. ET'S AND THEIR CRAFT SOMETIMES 'DROP BY' OUT OF CURIOSITY AND SIMPLY WANTED TO SEE THE 'DROP ZONE' RIDE FOR BRIEF AMUSEMENT. ODD,,,ISN'T IT THAT BOTH RINGS ARE SO SIMILAR???

you know i think this park is making a big deal out of this. If it was a ufo than it was a ufo. People shouldnt go crazy over this. Personally this is silly
