As long as they're strict about throwing people out for Public Intoxication then it doesn't matter. A drunk guy at a Stars game is funny, a drunk guy sitting in front of me on The Titan is scary.

Custodial services just received a huge boost in job security.

It sounds like a bad idea to me, but someone told me when I was in the 82nd Airborne Division for a while (this was in the day when the locals called us the Jumpin' Junkies), that some guys were getting high before parachuting. I never would have thought of that; I was already about 1200 feet high.

Six Flags is about to go bankrupt. They need to do all they can to generate sales.

This is a good thing. Other parks already allow beer sales and have had no reported problems. I see no problem as long as it is monitored properly and as long as the park enforces age restrictions. Heck, I ahven't been to 6-Flags in many yaers, but the wife goes every year when a gaggle of family with kids comes to Texas every summer for a visit. I might go this year with the group if I can have a beer or two to help the day along.

It's going to be approved, so we'll definitely see what happens. The 6-Flags folks are not stupid, so if it hurts business, you can bet they dump the policy ASAP. You can vote with your entertainment dollars if you so choose. In spite of the left/socialist leaning administration we now have in Washington, capitalism works in the marketplace. Nice thing about it is, you have a say. Excerise your right to say whether you approve or not. Visit 6-Flags and have a beer, visit 6-Flags and don't have a beer (nice how you might have that choice, isn't it?) or don't visit 6-Flags at all.

Just don't go to 6-Flags at the expense of buying MEAN GREEN SEASON football and basketball tickets. Now, that would be a bad thing.

Six Flags is just struggling to compete with the neighborhood park where I go to buy and mainline heroin. It isn't going to work, though.

Six Flags is on the brink of bankruptcy anyway. This is, sadly, part of their last ditch effort to get more people in and squeeze more omeny out of them. It's stupid. But, companies on the verge of collapsing often do stupid things.
