In a devastating move, the sign at Six Flags America has been removed premature of its Sunday closure.

@Tiger_NL2 @SixFlagsDC Yes, literally. Everything costs some number of pennies. 😉

Don't know who in the industry needs to hear this, but I hope that the entertainment team members at @SixFlagsDC find good homes in the industry. What they're consistently able to pull off with LITERALLY PENNIES is REALLY impressive. They've always punched WAY above their weight.

This is ESPECIALLY true during Halloween when they've consistently offered *FAR* better FrightFest houses and scarezones than you could find at the nearby @SFGrAdventure or @BuschGardensVA.

@NickStarr @SixFlagsDC @SixFlags It's not the worst @SixFlags park and it's DEFINITELY not the worst-run Six Flags park. The park and the market both deserve far better. The rot at Six Flags isn't going to be fixed by killing neglected parks, the rot comes from above.

@ParkFansNetwork @SixFlagsDC Good riddance to the park which brings the @SixFlags down to the gutter reputation it has.

Something like 20 operating hours remain for @SixFlagsDC. 😥

@Amusement_Buzz @SixFlagsDC It never got the attention, investment, or appreciation it deserved from locals, thoosies, and, most importantly, its owners. In different hands, it would be a massive success, but alas... 🙁

@ParkFansNetwork @SixFlagsDC Quite a nice little park. I went a couple weeks ago and had a blast!

@riderover_ We definitely will be. Such a sad state of affairs. 🙁

Truely a sad fact. This is going to affect thousands of families in Maryland. My flight is booked to DC for the final day of Six Flags Americas operation. Who else will be there?

The Wild Moose fears no road (or paparazzi) 🦌

Scoop: @RockyMtnConst is planning to construct a 45ft tall Wild Moose prototype at their headquarters! This will likely be a small test track similar to what RMC built while developing the Raptor. No matter the scale, it will be exciting to see an ACTUAL Wild Moose in action! 🫎

@alexp2805_ @worldsoffun Given that these parks have been marketing Gold and Prestige (where applicable) passes as including Haunt, we very much hope that they intend to include house admission with those passes for this season. Would feel very slimy if they didn't.

SCOOP: Per direct evidence we have reviewed, a legacy Six Flags-style house upcharge is coming to @WorldsOfFun's Halloween Haunt. Assuming plans stick, house admission will be charged separately from park tickets this Fall.

@xmaggiepiazzax @Carowinds @WonderlandNews @ConjuringFilms We've seen direct evidence. Plans can change, but what's reported above is the current plan.

@ParkFansNetwork @Carowinds @WonderlandNews @ConjuringFilms Where you hear this ???

SCOOP: Per direct evidence we have reviewed, @WonderlandNews is planning to implement a legacy Six Flags-style house upcharge for this year's Halloween Haunt. House access will now need to be purchased separately from park admission.

Additionally, @Carowinds is planning to bring the @ConjuringFilms IP to this year's SCarowinds with a secondary, additional, extra upcharge specifically for "The Conjuring: Beyond Fear."

@TheHSBR @WOFginger Why would we stop talking about an issue just because the parks are ignoring it? Shouldn't we talk about it more in that scenario?

@WOFginger I think collectively we need to stop talking about capacity. The single rails buried the belief that parks care about it. Additionally Low cap benefits parks through increased fast lane. The jig is officially up.

Cedar Point hasn’t built a roller coaster with adequate capacity in 12 years.

Gotta hand it to @SixFlags—announcing the closure of @SixFlagsDC without any plans for how to handle current passes is impressive, but that pales in comparison to then jacking up the price of said SFA passes right as you're announcing the park's permanent closure. Wild behavior.

@Aidan30491021 Yep, this was today's news.

@ParkFansNetwork Is this the news you teased yesterday? Just curious if it is or not as I am hoping to see if it is a major new coaster

Unfortunately, we have no glad tidings to bring this Christmas Eve. 😢 Absolutely hate to see coasters killed off like this.
