Herschend should just by KD, KI, Caro, and CePo and let the rest of the company go to waste.

Debt has become more expensive for Herschend too, for the record. Given they've gone on such a buying spree recently, we don't know that Herschend is interested in extending further in the current environment.

It's so wild how casually many people would happily watch a large portion of the country's access to regional amusement parks disappear in the name of protecting 1 or 2 parks.

this is why I want to see six flags split back into six flags, cedar fair (or cedar parks since fair meant valleyfair and that was sold off) & kings entertainment, they already doing that with some of their parks where they spin them off as enchanted parks so...

I know hidesight is 20/20 and whatnot, but I feel like Six Flags really made a massive mistake by committing to the Six Flags Over Georgia buyout back in 12/2024. I know debt was cheaper at the time, but they were already so overleveraged... why elect to onboard another $367.2 million in debt when your current debt is already such a strain? Insanely brutal that that's about to hit the company in 1/2027 on top of all of the other recent financial headwinds.

Wanted to point out that they declined the same kind of deal for SFOT this year. So someone clearly figured out that the math isn't mathing a while ago. More to the point, I can't imagine spending $350 million on any one park in particular, when you could have probably bought (some of if not all) the United parks for near that amount.
