According to Washington Post and Bloomberg, Six Flags, the amusement-park chain controlled by Washington Redskins owner Daniel Snyder, is selling seven of its 28 theme parks to Jacksonville-based PARC 7F for $312 million in an effort to improve its balance sheet.
The seven parks to be sold are Six Flags Darien Lake near Buffalo; Elitch Gardens in Denver; Frontier City and White Water Bay in Oklahoma City; SplashTown in Houston; Waterworld USA in Concord, Calif.; and Wild Waves and Enchanted Village near Seattle.
PARC Management Chairman Michael Jenkins, a former vice president of Six Flags over Texas, was among a group of people who helped oil executive Angus Wynne found the theme-park brand in 1961.
I went to six flags in calf. and could not ride on any rides,I’m a big man at 350# but I can ride amost all the rides @ Disneyland.So when I was at six flags all I could do was watch everyone else ride and it was a waste of $45.00 dallers.buy the way I,m looking for a big warner brothers road runner. do they have them @ the parks.or can I order one in the mail.Thanks
MY FAMILY AND I TRAVELED TO SIX FLAGS AND HURRICANE HARBOR OVER THE 4TH OF JULY WEEKEND. WE REALLY ENJOYED THE TRIP AND EXPERIENCE. ONE THING THAT SEEMED TO BOTHER ME WAS THE OUTRAGEOUS PRICE OF THE FOOD. I PAID $14.00 FOR A HOTDOG AND FRENCHFRIES, $5.00 FOR A CUP FULL OF ICE WITH A DROP OF COKE. YOU WOULD THINK, AS BUSY AS THEY ARE THE PRICES FOR EVERYTHING WOULD BE A LITTLE CHEAPER.
