If you could put a new park anywhere where would it be?

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

I would build a park in the southern suburbs of Milwaukee Wisc. because it would be a short ride, I could sleep longer, visit more often and eat some meals ta home!!.

Theres not a park in Montana because nobody cares about Montana. The population of that state is like 34.

I would build one near Seattle. However, no rides like Kingda Ka that cant operate in rain...

I dont think Indianapolis has a major park (but IDK how close Holiday World is to Indianapolis so I may be wrong), maybe one there would be good.

Well maybe your right about Montana, but maybe there should be a park in Minessota.

I would put one right by or possibly in the Grand Canyon. Isn't there other canyons near it, just not as big? I think it would be really cool cause you could have a road going past it and you'd be looking down on all the rides. It might be a bit hard to find electricity way down there, though.
Eh.......I got nothing.

Not exactly 34. :lol:
Montana's Population: Quick facts 902,195

I would choose Florida again because the car thing was nothing. If Universal, and Sea World are making, you know Six Flags would make it. However, they couldn't be like a dinky park. It's not going to happen though. There are enough parks, and they are closing them.

This should be in General Coaster. This doesn't have anything to do with Six Flags Great America.

So what if we have Valleyfair! We have a couple good rides. But not enough to make me want to go twice a year or more. Either Valleyfair expands or we need another park.

It's Minnesota not Minessota.

Phoenix really isnt pheasable as it's to hot 9 months out of the year to have an outdoor amusement park. There is Castles N Coasters but usually they only open for a couple hours every night.

Also found it odd that SFGAm sees more visitors in one year than people that live in the state of Montana, and in fact they see 3x the number of montana residents.

Adventureland is relatively big, it's in Altoona a suburb of DesMoines, they have an ok coaster selection with a Cobb out n back woodie, Mike Boodleys only coaster that he did for CCI that being Outlaw, a wood coaster dark ride the Underground, and a rare O.D. Hopkins looping coaster which while a bit rough is entertaining for what it is.

But where the park really shines is there outstanding collection of Flat Rides, including the Worlds first Moser Sidewinder (think Delerium but half the size), first Moser Splashover this year though I hear it's often closed while they work out some issues, and at least 20-30 other flats and a kickass Skyride that goes right though trees.

I'd put a Six Flags in Arizona. I don't know of any major parks there and I vactation there a lot, so it would be nice.

I would put a park in the middle of the Saraha, so no one ever wants to go there. Seriously, I think that the islands of Hawaii could use a nice park. Tourists go there all the time, make a resort destination out of it.

^ I was just thinking that. I don't really care to go to Hawaii if there's no theme park around.

I agree with coasterdude99. There is no six flags park in Kansas.
But I would rather have a Six Flags park in my backyard. :lol: :D
