In this video I talk about the Six Flags and Cedar Fair merger through in-depth analysis of their financials. I go over things I think the new chain should (and will do). I hope you enjoy!
Don`t forget, OKANA Indoor Water Park and Resort over 140 acres (built fully by the Chickasaw Nation at $400 million) and is one of the largest in the nation opening in the spring of 2025, Legends Tower complex should be completed on or before 2028, a billion dollar arena for the Thunder in 2028, American Heartland Theme Park and RV Resort is fixing to restart the construction process later this summer and is still planned to open up in the latter part of 2026, then, LA 2028 Olympics with 2-3 events being held here in OKC. Hope to see you guys here!
Just sucks SF doesn’t own FC. Potential is there of course, but when you don’t own the property it makes less sense to invest in it. Tbh, FC might be better off if it was sold to Herschend or something
@@coasterking836 The company is going to lose attendance in 4 of their properties. Look back at when the Texas Rangers won the World Series, and take a look at the massive parade that the team had (over 500,000 +), and the company was hoping and praying that they would attend SFOT, never happened, all the fans used was the parking lot to SFOT. Richard Zimmerman reminds me of what Gary Story was doing was back in the middle to late 90`s to the early 2000`s, Gary Story knew what rides to place in 36 parks that they had back then to up the attendance. Richard Zimmerman is doing just that. Gary Story retied from the company in 2004 do to health issues Kieren Burke, ran the company into the ground. But, Richard Zimmerman clearly stated in the conference call when this was taking shape, "We ask ourselves this same question all the time, how do you grow by shrinking?" Then he went on to mention, these are irreplaceable parks and when you let something like that leave, you`ll not be able to recover the attendance. So, They`ve got to fully compete with Disney and Universal, the company was doing just fine till COVID hit, even with FC and Darien Lake. We`ve already asked some of the head of SF about this "letting parks go or sell off that everyone talks about." They said this is false information. Just takes that 1 major ride at FC and then you`ll start to see 1.2 million again at the park. We`ve got 3 resorts being built around this park and SFOT.
