Have you not experienced this at one of these parks??!!’nDespite repeated requests for actual data, I still have seen no evidence of @Blauer's claims that, "Cedar fair, Six Flags, and Seaworld close the entire park because attendance is low and there’s a little rain in the air." I would caution against any debates predicated on unsubstantiated assertions. Imparting credibility on unproven claims risks allowing them to become perceived as agreed-upon facts.
I have numerous times after traveling 400-500 miles to go to these parks. At Kings Dominion. At Carowinds. And at Busch Gardens. Attendance was low. There was some rain in the air and they closed the park early. It definitely did not rain hard enough to justify closing the park. And several times it stopped raining and entirely when I experienced this.
Additionally, I was a Carowinds in November on a 50° day and they are closed the entire park at 3 PM with clear skies. Because of attendance!
It only takes some common sense to look at the situation when experiencing it
Carowinds closed early at least 10 times last year. They did not have dangerous weather 10 times last year.
I will continue to stand my ground on the subject I don’t care what people love amusement parks SO much that they justify unethical practices against their employees and their customers.
It’s also obvious that these people defending these unethical practices have not traveled hundreds of miles and spent money on hotels to attend a park that does not operate as advertised.
Oh yeah and Dollywood doesn’t do the sleazy kind of trick like Cedar fair Six Flags and Seaworld does
