Six Flags Over Texas 2/14/10

[Jp]

I left my house at 6:45pm on Saturday night going to are hotel (Marriott: Residence hotel) that is a couple of blocks away from the park. We arrive at the hotel at 11pm and are room had a great view of Mr. Freeze. The Dallas/Fort Worth had snow on the hole day Thursday and Friday morning and they still had lots of snow on the ground. I woke up at 6:30am and eat breakfest at the hotel (fake food) and then got ready to go to Six Flags Over Texas, I got there at 10:20am. I had a great day, because I was like walking and I saw like this famous dude walking into Johnny Rockets by Flashback. Then I go, "I seen that person before". Guess who it was. Ok I will tell you it was freakin Mark Shapiro with his kids and the park president of Six Flags Over Texas Steve Martindale, I met them both at the Johnny Rockets, and talk about the weather outside! The only bad part of the trip was that it was COLD and that the park made everybody leave at 1:30pm because the lack of people. Remember there was Snow everywhere even on some coasters!!

Hannah's toy in the SFOT snow!!

Nice TR!

I'm impressed that SFOT actually opened with the snow. Closing early doesn't surprise me but I would be mad if I paid full price for a ticket.

Did they open again today?

What did Mark say?

[Jp]

^ They did not reopen and we had season passes!

My walk up to him and said, Did you bring the weather here from New York. He starts laughing. Then he ask were we are from we said austin, Texas. Then he says, is that were that new Schliterbhan water park is going to and we said yes! Then he ask us did we have season passes for some reason and we said yes! and that was it!! I was so glad to meet him!!

[nitrofan]

I would have tried to get some questions answered on some things. lol

[Jp]

I no, but I was so suprise that I met him!!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you don't belive me that mark wasn't there, look here!!

Scroll down tell you see Mark, and that picture is not me! (http://themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=54173)

He wears a business suit when he goes to Six Flags with his family?

I saw Mark Kane walking around SFGAdv picking up trash, but I didn't talk to him. I probably should have.

I would be pissed that I couldn't ride Shockwave, Nice TR though!

[Jp]

Shockwave is refurbish like it always does this time of year!! They had pieces of track missing!

[bobbinbop20]

^haha, well never mind then!

[Jp]

I was mad to because, that is one of my favorite roller coasters! But they probly would't open it because of the snow!!
