what would you guys do if you owned six flags ( yeah right lol)?

by **lightningserve16** on June 29th, 2003, 6:39 pm

i would ride all the rides over and over and take a wrecking ball to whizzer and Iron Wolf!! lol

id put an end to the 'coaster war' between sfmm and cedar point so both parks could concentrate and building coasters that WORKED!

by **Galvan** on June 30th, 2003, 1:45 am

Id do away with that lame ass speed pass. Thats the biggest rip off next to the Seat in your Crotch Iron Wolf. Also id bring back Shockwave. And add some more hyper coasters. Hey a guy can dream cant he?MikeR.I.P. Shockwave

by **SFGAMNUT9302** on June 30th, 2003, 12:04 pm

I'd Fix Deja vu, Get new trains or something to improve IW, Get rid of SSA and the go carts and put Shock Wave back in its place, Remove the access rode by eagle and put a custom built floorless there, and Bring back Power Dive, Sky Whirl, and Hay Baler!

And last but not least.... Bring back the true Great America logo. http://www.themeparkbrochures.com/1979/sfgam1979_1.html

I'd make the employees take an IQ test before I hire them :lol:

by **SFGA 11** on June 30th, 2003, 1:09 pm

1). Put flags on top of Vipers, American Eagles, and Demons lift hills.2). Fix Deja Vu.3). Put Shockwave back in SWT by Viper and RB. And retheme and repaint it.4). Bring back Haybaler and Sky Whirl in to Orleans Place where the restaurant and fromer Power Dive were.5). Put mine train ride where Wildernesss Theatre is and theme it to Yukon Territory.6). Clean Up Park.7). And finally instead of all the recordings saying "Six Flags" they would say "Great America".

I like your Shockwave Idea. Im miss the old Blue.

by **SFGA 11** on June 30th, 2003, 1:22 pm

Am I seeing things or in the link that SFGAMNUT gave are those fountains in the water at the entrance of the park? I'm confused?!? :roll:

by **SFGA 11** on June 30th, 2003, 3:50 pm

I think if all of us ran the park it would be better! lol

Forget that, I'd make them take a general aptitude test, then, most importantly, common sense test, and not hand written. Make it creative, and use the tests to make a reality TV show. But then it wouldn't be creative, and I would make lots of money, and all of you would hate me for making a reality TV show, which everyone hates, but America loves.

As far as I know, there are fountains in the pond from Marriot's days... Paramount GAm still runs theirs.Oh, and it really ticks me off that none of the recordings say Great America anymore... it makes me think that they might be planning a chainwide renaming... like "Six Flags Over Georgia." To me, though, Six Flags Over Chicago just does not have the same ring as Great America.

by **coastrcorey** on July 1st, 2003, 10:28 am

They wouldn't rename us... We're Great America because of all the different territories. Besides, everyone knows it as Great America, it wouldn't make sense to change it to Over Chicago.

by **InsaneNewman** on July 1st, 2003, 10:41 am

Unless they were renaming chain-wide... then they wouldn't care why we had our old title.

by **coasterguy** on July 1st, 2003, 11:10 am

I don't see the point of the this forum! None of us will never own Six Flags so why talk about something that will never happen. Its like talking about flying pigs!

by **T_Biggs** on July 1st, 2003, 11:52 am

You can say that about 90% of the threads here. If you don't have anything constructive to add, don't add anything at all.

by **planea380** on July 1st, 2003, 12:00 pm

I would add this ride to great America.http://www.interactiverides.com/pages/Coasters.html[/url]

by **coasterguy** on July 1st, 2003, 12:22 pm

That would be really cool!!

by **coasterswimgurl12** on July 1st, 2003, 1:24 pm

yeah!!! that looks awesome....it should go where SSA and go-kart racing are!!!!!!!

by **coastrcorey** on July 1st, 2003, 3:01 pm

It's gotta be huge though if it reaches heights of 450ft? I don't know if it would fit... I don't get it either... How does it reach 450 if it only launches at 75mph?? Am I missing something here?

by **coasterzak** on July 1st, 2003, 3:10 pm

I say build something that would top CP's ride that is not working!

by **T_Biggs** on July 1st, 2003, 3:56 pm

Corey, don't forget, some of these people must think SSA and the go karts take up as much room as the whole SWT. :lol:

It seems that way, anyways.

by **Mr. SFGAm** on July 1st, 2003, 9:19 pm

Here is what I'd do:1.) Re-install Hay Baler where the Rock Climbing Wall is in County Fair, and get several new flats to replace removed rides like Cajun Cliffhanger, and Power Dive.2.) Make sure all of the ride-ops, shop workers, and midway cleaning crews are always friendly with the guests.3.) Give a fresh coat of paint to Demon, American Eagle, Iron Wolf, Whizzer, and Deja Vu.4.) Try and fix up the Yankee Harbor theming.5.) Get Vekoma into the park to fix up Deja Vu's train and computer system.6.) Rename the East River Crawler back to The Lobster, and Ice Mountain Splash back to Yankee Clipper!

by **SFGAMNUT9302** on July 1st, 2003, 9:31 pm

I'd probably just rename Yankee Harbor to Gotham Harbor.

by **InsaneNewman** on July 1st, 2003, 11:09 pm

I agree... just do more Batman themeing... maybe V2 could be repainted and become "Batman: The Escape." Oh, yeah, the swings could be "Penguin's Umbrella." And with a little touchup on the Yankee Clipper boats could turn them into BatBoats pretty easily.
