Dixieland Fun Park name change

[Medusa1861]

So, I went to Atlanta to watch the Flyers beat the Thrashers and decided to check out Dixieland Fun park while there for the day. So after I got my Scream 'n Eagle credit, we went into the arcade since we got 4 free tokens and had the possibility to get even more tokens for DDR by taking a survey. The whole point of the survey was pretty much to consider a name change. The name they are considering is Big Bear Adventure Park.

Big Bear to me just sounded like it belonged in PA so I voted it down. I don't really know what Dixie means, I just know that it's not a "good" thing in the South, so maybe that is why? Any thoughts?

 

If you've never heard of the park, it's a pretty small place with one coaster I thought was fun. It's got a Screamin Swing, A zipline,and a cool employee named Thomas S. that is about it.

Well Dixieland can have some "racist" tones to it, besides that they might just be searching for a rebranding to move in a new direction.

Damn i live about 15 miles or so from Dixieland and i haven't been there in a couple of years. Were there any other options you were asked to consider for the name change?

nope, the questionnaire was just "do you like the name Dixieland Fun park?" and then next question "Do you like the name Big Bear Adventure Park?"
