They don't want any additional attention brought on how often they close early these days. Same reason they'll spam you with irrelevant notifications for upsells with their app but won't send out any sort of notification there either (even if they can tell you're in the park).

Was almost going to travel up from Lexington today to go hoping for storm breaks and light crowds, but looking at weather this AM I decided against it.

 

I dont judge the park for closing, I judge them for lack of announcement. 

 

Have only been once this year. Not feeling strong to return any time soon

One of you may know better than I do on this: What are the odds that the legacy Cedar Fair parks stop using the current style of plastic shopping bag next year? Every bag I've gotten with a purchase from Kings Island this season has had all of the old Cedar Fair parks on it, including Michigan's Adventure, Valleyfair, and Worlds of Fun. Would it be standard practice to just use them into next season until they run out — even though those parks are no longer in the chain — or is there a chance that Six Flags has to now redesign/buy new bags?

I still have a bag from years ago with Geauga Lake's Wildwater Kingdom on it, but I don't remember when I would've gotten it. Some of the legacy Six Flags parks could also use new bags. The one I got from Chicago's Great America is from 2017 and very much looks the part. I did get a nice brown paper bag from Six Flags America last year, but it had the old SF logo on it which I would hate to see more of in the Cedar Fair parks.

Festhaus has new menu screens (not tvs, but the design/artwork on them), they look great, French Quarter does also. Not sure if all of them have been done throughout the park but the look much better than before.

Unfortunately, at least some of them, like Grain and Grill and Snoopy Grill, have extremely unappetizing AI slop images of the "food".

It’s less expensive than doing a photo shoot.

Wouldn't a photo shoot have a higher sales return than using AI and defeat the purpose?

Who knows...

But I know a lot of people, myself included, are turned off by AI generated images. In person and on social media. I'm absolutely sick of it.

AI is here to stay and brands are going to use it because it saves money.,
