lol I saw someone talk about that teaser for almost 30 minutes.

I thought that too. I was surprised that everyone was speculating a sale because I haven't seen a park get sold with this type of marketing. Traditionally they just announce the sale to the public, they don't release teasers and promos. The more I read into this whole thing, the less I think that Herschend is going to buy Kentucky Kingdom.

KK has removed the promo video from both Twitter and Instagram

Also, because of this tweet from the social media manager, I doubt that the map in teaser was actually of Herschend's other locations.

Also something I forgot to mention, there are nine emojis in the tweet, which may be linked to the fact that "Herschend" has 9 letters.

I feel like this tweet is alluding to a sale. At first I thought it was hinting at a roller coaster (which it may actually be), but the "emotional" part makes me wonder if it's a sale. Maybe the "emotional" part is referring to a change in ownership from a local company to a national one. Idk for sure, but it makes me wonder.

I'm surprised, up until today I hadn't heard much talk about a sale. I thought the pandemic was hurting them, but not to the extent to where they can't afford to operate the park. I hope this is just some attraction and not a sale though, because the KK team has been able create something really unique, and it's been such an improvement since the Six Flags days. At least its not Six Flags buying the park again, but still, it's a shame to what was the greatest amusement park turnaround of the 2010s.
