I'm putting my money on Zamperla. Course I could say that about several parks Zamperla should take over. -

Do Knott's on Thursday and SFMM on Friday. Less people at Knott's and use Platinum Flash Pass at SFMM. -

You count empty seats on coasters while waiting in queue lines (I did that for Boomerang at Wild Adventures) -

It's obvious that Six Flags isn't the greatest chain in the planet, But for lasting over 50 years, Is an accomplishment. Anyway, When do you think Six Flags went downhill? Was it Time Warner? Was it Bally? Was it Premier Parks? Jim Reid Anderson? Mark Shapiro? When do you feel Six Flags started to fall? IMO, The time Six Flags fell was in 1998 when Premier took over the park and turned the Six Flags company into a Six Flags franchise and "Flagging" Small Premier Parks and added more clones, Overexpanded the chain/parks, cut staffing, Turning SFMM into a Coaster Park, Acquiring "small properties" to expand them, and turning the parks heavily into promotions with Coca-Cola, AOL, Kodak, Ice Mountain Splash, Deer Park, Arrowhead and others. Anyway, When do you feel Six Flags fell off?
