I'll chime in a bit on this whole thing. Once upon a time I think SFA was deserving of all the bad views towards it. But I must say in the past 3 years I've been visiting the park semi frequently they are not as terrible as many make them out to be anymore. From my visits the staff have been friendlier and friendlier each year, and the park is doing little things around the park to clean up each year and it doesn't seem as run down as my first visit 6 years ago. My typical visit is for 1-3 hours somewhere between 4-6 times a year en route to visit relatives on a Sunday or Monday. Nothing ever has more than a few train wait and I agree that their OPs are slow, but based on my visits I've never seen a reason for them to need to have insanely fast ops. At this point outside of having a weak ride line up, I don't see SFA as that much worse than other Six Flags parks as far as Clientele, customer service, and over all experience goes anymore.
