Peep the concept, you've got progress, you've got congress
We protest in hopes they confess, just proceed on your conquest
I ain't got no gavel, I ain't finna fight nobody battle
I just wanna be free, I ain't finna be nobody's chattel

^It probably will. I think the only effect we will have is higher prices and less coaster developments at the parks. We will see though.

Well, on a positive note, he lost his lawsuit so things aren't 100% final just yet.  If Six Flags has a buyer, they might still be able to proceed since Snyder can't remove ALL members of the board just yet.

IMO, if Red Zone gets their hands on Six Flags Inc., coaster enthusiasts are screwed.  I wouldn't expect any decent size coaster investments for many years.  (I'm not saying thats a bad thing, it just sucks lol)  I also don't see how anything good at all can come from Snyder getting hold of them.  He stinks of negative impact.

IMO, I do think the company should be sold though.

I want to see the parks go back to thier roots in all honesty.  SFOT had 6 themes, and great classic rides.  I wouldny mind seeing all of the six flags parks get better themed and go for great coasters, not just record breaking ones.

I guess once more, its just too early to tell what will happen.

^Agreed. I mean when there were all those rumors that el toro was going to be taller than Son of Beast, i was a lil ticked off. But when they announced it to only be 181 feet tall, i was overwhelmed because a coaster can be great even if its only half the size of a record breaking one.
