Something that Six Flags could do would be to buy the company and run it as a subsidiary rather then just buying the parks. An example of this would be that Kroger own Harris Teater but they are run as two separate companies that even compete against each other in some areas. We have no idea what a SF buyout would look like IF it were to happen. That said SF has some strong points that could greatly help SEAE if they were to buy it out. Examples include much better costumer services as well as a larger marketing footprint. And while I would never want to see the over commercializing of the park as SF dies it also wouldn't kill the parks yo look at add based partnerships as a alternative way to bring in cash. Say what you about them SF has done a better job at keeping their prices affordable for more people then most of the parks snd that is something that Busch could benefit from.
