Talk:Six Flags

"Six Flags"

regarding the Six Flags: This is not "alleged." The following flags have flown over the state of Texas at one point of time or another: Spain, France, Mexico, The Republic of Texas, The United States and the Confederate States of America.

I'm not saying it is, i just dont think there should be a link to SFOT there.(Also sign your posts)Nathanhillinbl 20:57, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

Trivia

How is it that Six Flags is said to own 30 parks in the trivia section despite the fact that the first few lines of the article specify that they have 21? It looks like this portion of the article is out of date, so it should be either corrected or removed.

Article

Based on this article, http://www.kansascity.com/mld/kansascity/news/local/11687695.htm, Six Flags is most likely banning all sex offenders from their parks. Zscout370 (Sound Off) 01:13, 20 May 2005 (UTC)

"mainly due to 9/11"

Why do you say that SF's debt is attributed to 9/11? Everyone knows that 9/11 overall helped hurt the US economy. Therefore I removed it and I don't think it should be put back (unless there is a specific reason SF was hurt by 9/11.)

The events of September 11, 2001 had little to do with Six Flags' enormous debt. They essentially bit off more than they could chew by acquiring so many smaller parks. Their attempt at re-branding these parks was a failure and they lost money. The management at Premier Parks destroyed Six Flags when they took over; most of them were real estate brokers who knew little about operating a chain of themed parks. I'm quite certain that those people would like for you to believe it was all because of September 11, 2001. I have little doubt that's what they like people to believe.

Trivia

It states "the population". Population of what?

• --- Population of the United States, sorry forgot to put that.

I asked for a citation on the passes offered for eating a cockroach during Fear Fest. I've never heard of this particular promotion.

• —Is that better? Jcembree 04:30, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

Does the whole "built from the ground up" thing only parks that were built solely by six flags, or does it mean built solely as a theme park? If its solely as a theme park, The Great Escape would fall into that category.Nathanhillinbl 03:21, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

Six Flags Darien Lake

I looked but could not find the name of Darien Lake's water park. Anyone know the actual name?

It doesn't use any particular name, the sections of it are called Hook's Lagoon, Crocodile Isle and Barracuda Bay, but it doesn't use the generic Six Flags moniker of "Hurrican Harbor." Zotdragon 15:59, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

Darien Lake's water park is completely included with the park, and is not a seperate entity of any kind. Therefore there isn't a complete "name" and no reason to list it seperately on the site. ClarkCT 05:50, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

Six Flags New Orleans

At this point, the company still owns and has rights to operate Six Flags New Orleans. I see no reason to put it under 'formerly owned/operated'. Just because it is currently closed doesn't mean they don't still own the park.

They want out of New Orleans. They've already pulled some of their hardware from the park and moved it elsewhere. Besides, Six Flags never owned the property upon which the park sits... they are only leasing it from the city of New Orleans. Jay77tx 12:57, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

PARC Operations References

I won't edit the page because I prefer to stick to my local pages (Darien Lake), but FYI: to edit your wiki links as you see fit, articles now exist on the following as shown:

• PARC Management, the official name of PARC 7F Operations.
• CNL Income Properties, without the "Inc.".
