AggieDave 6 #2 March 26, 2003 Ummm, the one near Dallas actually in Texas (Arlington, Texas) is the best one. Don't know about those other ones. Know where the name Six Flags came from? --"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

newshooter12 0 #5 March 26, 2003 i've heard the one in NJ is pretty good. A friend, theme park nut, goes there a couple times a year... or at least used to when he lived near there. matt Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PhillyKev 0 #12 March 26, 2003 Haven't been there in years so couldn't tell you. But Great Adventure in NJ also has a drive through wild life safari that's pretty cool. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jessd 0 #13 March 26, 2003 I've only been to the Six Flags in NJ. It's a lot of fun with lots of fun rides. I would go there. "Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away..." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Muenkel 0 #16 March 27, 2003 Ori, I have been to both and by far Six Flags, Great Adventure in NJ is the better one. Don't go on a weekend if you can help it. The lines can be brutal.

Daizey 0 #24 March 28, 2003 Kids are on vacation usually the week before easter...so their vacation ends on easter...soem schools have it the week after *daizey* Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daizey 0 #25 March 28, 2003 Its hard to tell you really which is better. It depends on what your tastes are. If you are a roller coaster freak (like me) you will love Great Adventure. America is good, but not as good as Great Adventure in my opinion. I believe America has eight roller coasters....to see the rides, go to this link.....http://www.sixflags.com/parks/america/rides/list.asp?rideid=full Great Adventure has a brand new rollercoaster this year, so i bet the park will be crowded..its called superman-the ultimate flight. that brings the total of that park to somewhere over 10 rollercoasters. Go to this site to see their rides...http://www.sixflags.com/parks/greatadventure/rides/list.asp?rideid=full Hope that helps! *daizey* Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
