What other Six Flags do you think will close?

Talk about anything that has to do with the amusement park industry here.

I would say Darien Lake. I don't think that a regular Boomerang and a SLC which are rough to me along with a Dinn wooden coaster are going to survive for much longer. The Intamin Mega (Superman) seems to be the one ride that the park has. I havn't been to the park, but I've been on Boomerangs, SLC's, and Dinn coasters. The Arrow Looper is probably nothing special along with a Family coaster.

I don't think that the company can bear to lose St. Louis. It's an original Six Flags property. Lot's of history there.

But if it were to be sold, look for Busch to be interested in it immediatley. I think they always wanted to have a park in that area, given its huge presence in St Louis with the brewery and all.

Like i said before i dont think Busch would be interested in buying parks, But the SFSTL idea is very interesting.

I like your angle GreatAmerica, definately very thought provoking.

I doubt SFStL would leave. It was one of the original parks. If I had to let one go, it would be SFNO or SFEG.

I think SFGADV is next to go, its so underperforming and it hasnt had a new coaster in ages :roll: , I was being sarcastic in case some people didnt catch on. I dont know which is the next park to go, and why would we really even care, most likely it will be a park far from us that sucked to begin with. As long as sfgam doesnt go, which there isnt a chance in hell that it will, im happy.
I'm running to Bull on opening day, anyone gets in my way and they'll get trampled.

SFGAm would still remain an amusement park no matter who owned it. Dick Kinzel had mentioned in the past that CF would be interested in SFGAm if it was put on the market. Basically the CEO of Cedar Fair thinks highly of the Chicago area.

And Snyder did mention in the past before he got on the board that he would see if Busch would be interested in the SFMW property. Since the city of Vallejo wants to sell the property to Six Flags instead of just managing it and SF isn't interested in buying, I could see this possibly happening with Busch.
I finally retired the Sarah Palin signature because she is now 100% irrelevant.

Yeah, SFGAm is definatly one of the better performing parks (hey, it is just outside the third largest metropolitain area in the USA) and would be sure to bring profit to whoever ran it.

It's safe to say that most likely our park will be here for a long time to come.
