Six Flags over Georgia - It's Not Disney

[@tammydee9700]

Love how much fun you both have together! I'm 56 and my hubby is 57 and unfortunately, due to my back problems, I'm unable to ride coasters anymore. But we do still have fun when we travel around Florida and out of state. Such a joy you both are! ❤️

[@ThemeParkBazza]

Why thanks you , it’s always easy to have fun when you hang out with your best buddy, with or without coasters

[@heather_feather40]

I just found you guys and you’re adorable! Happy retirement! As a native of Tx and the Dallas area where Six Flags began, this makes me so sad. Six Flags Over Tx in Arlington was the original and in its heyday in the 60’s and 70’s was themed brilliantly and glorious. Non of that Warner Bros junk! It’s was a beautiful theme park based on the different countries that ruled over Tx. Many visitors have no clue that’s how it began. Your assessment of current Six Flags parks are accurate. Car parks with roller coasters. They’re awful and I so with you could’ve experienced the beautiful Six Flags I remember as a child. Best wishes!

[@ThemeParkBazza]

Thank you, the park was amazing

[@BroadwaysAway]

Looks like a fun day for coaster people, so not me then really 😂 That dark ride was so weird, but still better that IASW at MK 😂

[@ThemeParkBazza]

They do have a few good coasters there and not crazy wait times

[@tonylilley6611]

That's the way it is in the north east for maccy dees, all touch screen and a miniscule serving hatch, surprised it hasn't gone card only like tim hortons, another great video, and I'm still shouting at the screen when you and max try to get the sofa in on the intro lol😊

[@ThemeParkBazza]

Lol, I left that in the intro as it’s part of our life earlier this year, I will do a refresh on the intro at the end of the year

[@marjielalonde3875]

Looks as if you ended up having a pretty good day after a rocky start. Absolutely unbelievable about the AC! You poor guys can`t catch a break when it comes to the house! Hope it`s all been worked out by now!

[@ThemeParkBazza]

Things are better now, but fair warning the next vlog will be a bit of a grim one

[@robertkerr3800]

Them lads at 9:15 should of give them a Lancashire slap baz 🤣

[@ThemeParkBazza]

Lol, they were just having fun

[@jacquelineallen9954]

Hi Guys Another great vlog. All the McDonalds in the uk are changing over to the self service touch screens now as well.

[@ThemeParkBazza]

Yes , the feedback I have been getting is that it's a global change

[@elaineforrester1258]

Hi not having much luck with your A C hope it gets sorted out soon for you. Hope you enjoyed your holiday. Take care see you on your next one x

[@ThemeParkBazza]

Thanks, you will find out more about the AC in the next vlog,on Friday

[@jillyg]

We landed Friday in Orlando for our usual 3 week stay hope we get to bump into you and Max at the parks … so hot isn’t it 😊

[@ThemeParkBazza]

It's still a but warmer than usual, but it's cooling off slowly. We will be out and about at the weekend as usual, not sure where yet

[@jillyg]

@@ThemeParkBazza ok 👍 off to animal kingdom for a bit then not so scary Halloween tonight 🎃

[@ALifeintheParks]

I completely agree with you, Six Flags is in a different market to Disney but their parks offer decent thrills for a fair price. McDonalds in Bordeaux have touch screens on the street and a walk up window to collect! Not seen that before 😂

[@ThemeParkBazza]

Oh very chic , only in France

[@vickimccollum2537]

I grew up in Atlanta and had close family living there too. That was my first Six Flags Park. We always went in late April for my birthday, beginning at age 11. I believe the location was first called Fun Town, an area amusement and rides park, which we also went to on weekends. Eventually it became 6 Flags, and Fun Town was torn down. At least that's my memory but I haven't researched to be sure that's true about the changes. it was always fun for us.

[@ThemeParkBazza]

It’s a nice little park, as you saw we did enjoy ourselves

[@vickimccollum2537]

@@ThemeParkBazza We really enjoyed the Dalongha Mine Train and the big white, wooden coaster! Hard to stay in your seat in that ride.

[@vickimccollum2537]

I looked it up. Funtown ruins were still there in the 90s; it wasn't at the 6 Flags Park area. The Mine train at 6 Flags opened in 1967 so that park was there fairly early as well. Also, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr's Birmingham Jail speech talked about Funtown, in that he had to explain to his little girl why he couldn't take her to the public amusement park. I had no idea of that. I was under 10 when I went with my cousin and siblings.

[@manchester1972]

Great vlog as per... Don't moan about the bloody heat. It's hailstone here the size of golf balls here in Accrington.. It's like something off day after tomorrow. Lol.... 😂😂😂

Hope you don’t get any car damage with hailstones that big !

@@ThemeParkBazza ours is in the garage but caused carnage on the main roads. Traffic tailed back for miles. It's madness as 80 last week. I never believed in climate change but it's deffinatly a thing.

[@spoons165]

Evening guys for the cost and choice I think the park looks very good value, sorry to hear about the hotel horrors, keep safe Andy and Vonnie

[@ThemeParkBazza]

We agree it’s good value for money

[@TheArtistJR]

You would have been better off just watching old vids of SFOGa in the 70s and 80s for getting the "theme" of the park. Over Georgia is the second, with Texas being first, and the parks were split into 6 sections themed to the 6 flags that flew over each of the 2 states. The rides fit the theme of each section (for ex, Thunder River originally was Jean Ribaut's River Adventure, and was accordingly in the French section). Today, while there are many more coasters than in decades past, it's still just a shadow of its former self--sort of a cash grabbing split personality between Warner Bros and DC comics.

[@2bigkidsgo]

Definitely not Disney but really good to see other parks and what they have to offer… head bangers and back bangers indeed!! Nice to see your shooting skills were on point 😂

[@ThemeParkBazza]

It’s a rare occasion I beat Max but when I do she knows about it …. for hours lol

What is a euro coaster? At least that's what I think you said, when you said you and Mrs B don't do them. Thank you.
