Last time I went there I took a group of high school juniors and seniors on fright night. Every gang in dfw was staking claim to that place.

Never going back.


Sounds like my experience with Astroworld back in the 90s. Every 30 mins a new gang fight started.

Gangs ruin everything.

This whole gang thing is intriguing to me.

So these pseudo-tough wanna-be gangbangers are walking up to a ticket booth with Yosemite Sam cutouts plastered all over it and saying "Yeah I want a season pass"?

Do they bring Dr. Pepper cans for $5 off?

Do they eat cotton candy?

What about Hurricane Harbor?



Its not just gangs. That was mostly astroworld. At least in my experience, its just a popular hang out with the local teens since season passes are cheapish.

we went to sea world one August day about 5 years ago and it was literally wall to wall people. it just wasn't worth it so we got a rain check.
I went to Sea World 4-5 years ago. It was packed as all get out. I threatened to punch an Indian (dot) lady because she kept trying to shove me out of the way at the Shamu show saying "But sir! I am not seeing the whale!" My son and I were already about three people back from the rail at the top of the seating area so no one was seeing the whale very well, if at all. She backed down when I told her that the next time she touched me would be her last conscious thought of the day.

Also, Charpie was in the park as well, she followed me around for most of the day and posted about it here. She's definitely a creeper.

Yeah I get that part -- some of our parents definitely used it as a cheap day care more than a few times (drop the kids off and pick them up after work).

Just amusing to me to picture gang members trying to act hard in front of a Foghorn Leghorn statue and the like.

The gang problems are tied to season passes. Cheapest daycare ever for bad parents when school let's out.

LOL.

Oh I'm definitely stealing and filing away this one for my own to use someday.

Thank you very much

Does the staff still do the shootout thing at Six Flags? That was a big & somewhat scary thing when I was a kid. I knew it was fake but it sounded very real. I loved it.

I will never step foot in a six flags establishment again. a few years ago they held a Muslim awareness day on Sept 12th.

As far as I'm concerned they can go **** Themselves
