sixflagstloldschool Posted May 8, 2006 Posted May 8, 2006 Found this on another site, Posters ID was goingcoasting at www.SFSTL.net http://www.prnewswire.com/cgi-bin/stories.pl?ACCT=104&STORY=/www/story/05-08-2006/0004356369&EDATE= Hopefully this will be the end to Buildings in dire need of some LOVE and AFFECTION! Congrats to Six Flags, this could be a god send in a creative partnership with the Park and Home Depot. Hopefully! We shall wait and see! Lets see some buildings around your local Six Flags Park, that needs some love! I will be going back this saturday for the wifes Company gathering the 13th. I will be keeping an eye on the problem areas of the park. Below I show you the que for The Screamin Eagle, at St. Louis. I have other photos of roofing paper exposed and wood just rotting away! For its 30th birthday, More attention should of been given in my opinion! Heres a start!
Lenaapple1974 Posted May 8, 2006 Posted May 8, 2006 I actually took pictures of some buildings this time around at SFGA. The buildings to me werent in as much need as some of the rides. It is only only May, and I noticed lots of paint that was desperately needed! And this bothered me alot : it is the rust that bothered me here
Lenaapple1974 Posted May 8, 2006 Posted May 8, 2006 The dripping rust.... It quite possibly is...it just looks so bad, and would fit with the diminishing keep up. There was large chipped paint pieces all over the place though - straight through to the metal. I wish I had taken some pictures of that stuff. I don't think of it until I come up to topics in TPR!

I agree, it looks bad.
Jon Sabo Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 I now wonder if HD will ask Tony "Smoke" Stewart (Nascar #20-HD sponsored car) will be at the parks painting Six Flags buildings now...lol He is a big coaster fan for sure...

sixflagstloldschool Posted May 9, 2006 Author Posted May 9, 2006 Looks like they painted to late in the day and and on the wall! Moisture in the evening caused the paint Run. Looks like rust, but probably paint! Shoud definately not be a part of the theming. Thats why we pay more today for everything, all the years of abuse by workers not doing things right the FIRST time. Should of unbolted letters off of wall and painted either on the ground and left to fully dry for 24 hours, inside would of been the obvious to let dry.
sixflagstloldschool Posted May 14, 2006 Author Posted May 14, 2006 When did this partnership happen???? Found this in the Window at one of the shops in Six Flags St. Louis. At the front of the park next to Photo Spys, and Entrance to The Catering Tents ! Kinda funny! What do we have here Disney Merchandise, am I, could I, hmmmmm. No Way!

ECZenith Posted May 14, 2006 Posted May 14, 2006 While they're at it I wish they would remove the pink paint from Nitro's rails. Chang looks awesome with the straightup yellow/blue combination, plus I can't stand pink...
