The-Snapper Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 If this is true that Cedar Fair might be purchasing our great PKI then thats fine. Is anyone excited? What would you want to see at the park if this is true???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
familyman Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 See what you started, Ohoo someone shoot me now. Why would Cedar Fair want 3 parks in one state? I know PKI is on the other end of the state. Like I keep saying it's just rumored that they are looking to sell. I will believe it when I see it.

Captain Nemo Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 Why do you need two topics about it. and if you look on the main page there are like 4 topics relating to it. Can we stop with all these rumors about this happening! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UncleHenry Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 Yeah people, he's right. Don't flame someone before doing some research into their claims. Viacom is CONSIDERING, but its still considering. And yes, Cedar Fair is a prospected buyer. News Link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Nemo Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 I've seen the news, but still with the high success tat PKI is doing it would be the last to be sold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

familyman Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 There are other companies that are much bigger than Cedar Fair that are looking to buy as well. Just because there is something rumored does not mean that CF will be the one buying. Could someone close this thread? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PKIDelirium Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 the only smart way to sell it would be to spin Paramount Parks off into its own company, and give it a lifetime license to use the Paramount names and such. It's what they did with Blockbuster. And that would still allow the parks to stay as they are now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are other companies that are much bigger than Cedar Fair that are looking to buy as well. Just because there is something rumored does not mean that CF will be the one buying. Could someone close this thread? Last time I checked, Cedar Fair was the largest that would be willing to buy the parks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The-Snapper Posted February 25, 2005 Author Share Posted February 25, 2005 And I am saying this to you, why do you think (And I'm not saying it is not a possablility) Cedar Fair would buy the park. Why wouldnt they? All three major theme parks in Ohio all owned and operated by Cedar Fair! PKI is 3 1/2 hours from those parks so that doenst matter. PKI is worth a lot of money and had 3.4 million people walk through its gates last year and Cedar Point had 3.2 million. Thats why Cedar Fair would want to buy the park. AND PLEASE Six flags has 3 Major parks in Texas!!! So why could Cedar Fair do it? And I did see that license plate! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 Well Cedar Fair would have been at PKI for one of two reasons. 1.) Look at Delirium, for ideas on maXair. 2.) They are interested in buying the park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the only reason y i think it could be for that reason is to see how our operations team runs the ride ect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooby_Doo Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 LoL I'll tell ya what if Paramount is selling the chain Six Flags would be a great choice I dont care for CF I love coasters but ah,,,nevermind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docdude316 Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 AND PLEASE Six flags has 3 Major parks in Texas!!! ! Texas is also twice if not three times as large as Ohio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 LoL I'll tell ya what if Paramount is selling the chain Six Flags would be a great choice I dont care for CF I love coasters but ah,,,nevermind. Six Flags cannot afford to buy the parks. And if they did, they would be building rides in the parking lot, and the park would look like hell.

RollerNut Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 All five parks will be sold together, Cedar Fair won't buy all five. Six Flags can't afford it. Blockbuster is owned by Viacom, it says so in Company History. It is dividson of Paramount Studios, or Entertainment whatever. I don't think we have much to worry about. I think someone in Paramount Studios will buy up the whole Paramount Parks chain in order to keep the advertising. Carowinds and the others are a way of advertising Paramount Movies both new and old. I is basically free advertising. Carowinds gets the rights to use Top Gun for a roller coaster theme, and Paramount Pictures gets to put ads for their new movies in and around the park. That is the way it has always worked since 1993. Besides look at the funding PKI is getting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 I hate to burst your bubble Ben, but I don't see Cedar Fair buying Paramount Parks, I think they lack the funds to make it happen, and it's probably not feasible for them. Buying one park I could see, but they are selling the whole unit, so I don't see your precious Cedar Fair owning the much more original and creative PKI in the future. And if Cedar Fair owned PKI all we'd get is a bunch of coasters that lacked creativity or theming. Go back to a Cedar Point site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 Kiss my a** snapper. He's a CP fanboy who'd like nothing more than to be able to say that PKI got bought out by his precious CP. He can say what he wants, but I can too. Also, what the f*ck? I didn't even make fun of him in that post, just of Cedar Fair's additions to their parks. And I told him to go back to a Cedar Fair site, I think someone said that to him before too. Get over it you *****. Cedar Fair's not ending up with PKI unless they pull a billion dollars out of their a**. I don't see it happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 I will say for the CP fans out there and for political correctness that Cedar Point is an awesome park I wish to visit soon, and I'm sure I will enjoy it immensely. I do feel they are not as creative as PKI in some of their recent additions when compared to Tomb Raider or Italian Job. However, their rides look to be great fun and I look forward to visiting. Wow, political correctness sure is fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha, I know, I just really like to screw with people, especially when we have differing opinions on something that's not important(otherwise I'll be a respectable person willing to debate and listen to ideas). Don't take what I said personally snapper, or the joke about how you like to get Dominated from your #1 B&M coaster. All just fun & games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beast79 Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 Well from personal experiance, I know that CP reps have been to the park. I used to work in the maintenance department and we had to clean the shop up before they came. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
