I just envision this episode of Celebrity Apprentice...in Trump's office, little Danny sitting across from hot Ivanka...not paying attention and playing paddle ball.

TheDonald..."Mr Snyder, hate to interupt, but I was wondering what idea did you come up with to improve 6 Flags?"

TheDanny..."Two words Mr. Trump......Tweety Bird."

The family and I went a couple weeks ago. They tried to charge me $12 for a miniature burger, fries and a drink (with no free refills). I laughed at them. Then I saw they wanted $7 for a bowl of ice cream. These people are on crack. People are tired of getting robbed. Outrageous fees to get in, outrageous fees to park. Enough is enough.

Its the same thing at the new cowboys stadium. $8 beers, $14 sandwiches. Until people band together and quit paying these prices, they'll never go down.

Make it cheaper, and more people will come. More people means you'll make more money.

After bankrupting many people's pension funds and making billions of dollars the market is now correcting itself. Chrysler went under 40 years ago and came out stronger than ever. Whether or not it makes it this time is another as it is with all. Danny needs a bail out. I'd rather see Chrysler stay than Six Flags.

But you're right about too much money. And people will and are staying away in droves. Everywhere for much of everything except likely movies and beer.

We used to take trips to Six Flags Over Texas when I was younger. Hope they can turn things around.

I stay away from movies like they're the plague. $8-9 per ticket, then you have to take a loan out for a bucket of popcorn and a coke.

I was going to take the kids and wife to see "Up", last week, then figured it would cost the 4 of us at least 50 bucks even for a matinee. Thats just a rip-off. I went to blockbuster instead, rented a movie bougth some popcorn and we watched it on the big screen instead.

We had just as much fun, far less hassle, and saved myself $45 too.

I dunno, maybe I'm just a cheap arse, but when I feel like I'm getting robbed for something, whether its the movies, or six flags, I find it really hard to have a good time.

Lower the Ticket Prices and increase their Volume might drastically improve Profits. This might allow some to go that might not otherwise.

We're taking our kids to Six Flags over Texas this summer some time.

No I don't care, at all, that it puts money in Danny's pocket.
