Richard Zimmerman becomes CEO and the majority of the company will be half and half. The new company will use FUN but will retain the Six Flags name.

I like that all access passes will work at more parks now but that’s about the only positive I see here. Terrible news for fans of Intimin and especially RMC. Hopefully Great Adventure continues maintaining El Toro and Kingda Ka but I’m not overly hopeful for either ride.

So they’ve basically become a monopoly outside of heavily themed parks in California and Florida?
IMHO Close to it. SeaWorld has major parks in Virginia and Texas but outside of that there is really only much smaller chains or independent parks.

Well shit. This is coming from someone who lives in the town where the ‘fair’ part of cedar fair comes from.
