  1. When? WHich ones? How were they busted? Note also that Six Flags is near virtually every major metro market...Cedar Fair isn't. Cedar Fair: NYC: no Chicago: no Dallas/Fort Worth: no Atlanta: no St Louis: no Meanwhile, Cedar Fair has parks in places like Shakopee, Minnesota; Allentown, Pennsylvania; Aurora, Ohio and Sandusky, Ohio. And some New Yorkers would sneer Cincinnati! That prejudice against Cinci is about as accurate as many's against a Six Flags they haven't been to in years. For instance, Six Flags was recently headed by the former General Manager of Kings Island, the former Chairman of Paramount Parks. The Flags of today is not the Flags of the midterm past. It is far, far better than that. And it's not really a competitor of Cedar Fair. I daresay that Matt Ouimet and James Reid-Anderson understand each other's companies, respect and admire each other and borrow best practices. Gary Story and Dick Kinzel, and their business strategies, are gone. Who did all season dining first at a seasonal park? What seasonal chain first adopted virtual lines (and still does a far better job of it)? Who started in park advertising on a wide scale basis? Where was an event like CP's after hours party first done in a seasonal park? Who started selling refillable souvenir mugs? Which seasonal park chain first widely adopted no loose articles on large coasters? Yep. And questions can just as easily be formulated the other way. Those who only see the best at their favorite chain are missing out. Illinois Kentucky Missouri Montreal New Jersey New York Texas (Arlington) So yeah I've been to a few, but it's just my opinion. The parks have a good gimmick going but to me they just don't feel or excite me like CP or kI, can you dig it?
  2. How the (bleep) is Six Flags ahead of Cedar Fair?? I've been to 6 of their parks and I thought they was busted compared to just CP or KI alone. Sent from my iPhone 5S using Tapatalk
  3. I'm old school so I gotta roll with The Beast, my other pick would be The Demon.
  4. I believe that Adventure Express is a staple and should stay put. I also think that it would be interesting though if the initial lift hill was the enclosed guardian section. Concerning BLSC umm yeah it's never on my to do list, just imagine what you could do with that area if BLSC wasn't there.
  5. I hear the train ride during the haunts is an attraction that's not to be missed.
  6. That could have happened. Paramount explored the idea of removing the tower and replacing it with a Ferris wheel that was shaped like the Paramount logo. I don't want to even think about that, if I'd seen it I would've walked away smh!
  7. LOL I never thought about the beans.
  8. Dad's eat FREE!!! Now that's what's up! I hope they also offer this July 4th, Labor Day, Haunts. https://www.visitkingsisland.com/events/things-to-do/events-and-promotions/Fathers-Day-BBQ-Dads-Eat-Free
  9. The Eiffel Tower and the fountains, can imagine how weird the park would look without either of them?
  10. How is this All Day Dining Plan tracked? I'm assuming a bracelet is scanned every transaction.
  11. I'm glad no one was seriously hurt, on the other hand has anyone ever wondered what the FOF would be like as an outdoor attraction?
  12. I guess the Backyard BBQ wasn't a hit. The all day plan sounds good, BUT no drink. Looks like I'll grab a souvenir bottle for the 99ยข refills.
  13. While the all day meal deal sounds nice I'm more inclined for an all you can eat buffet in the parks or running out to the car or hotel for a bite.
