Six Flags And Toys R Us

I just saw the crappiest commercial ever. It was a commercial for Six Flags Hurricane Harbor toys. They were backyard water toy things. The commercial has the worst song. It's like "Who brongs the fun home, Six Flags can." Well I want to see em bring a coaster home. Has anyone else seen this commercial?

HAHAHADHADHADHADFHADFHDAFHARHADFQRT^H^^TJY&^TJRA#A#^J


I did see that commercial and I almost killed myself it was so funny. Not only is this the most pathetic move I have ever seen by SF, I cant just stop thinking about these toys!!!! Here are some of the toys they had...

Six Flags now introduces the X pool. This pool can now hold 15 gallons of water.....making it the first Xtreme Pool!!!!! Giving more pool toys to SF than CF. Enjoy kiddies!!!!!

Warning~~~~ X pool may suddenly rock back and forth causing small childs to die.
If X pool suddenly turns red, run and cover your head
Do not Taunt the X pool.
X pool is not responsible if it drowns your child and/or takes your childs soul



But thats not all.... Now Six Flags introduces the Deja Vu slipnslide!!!!!!! have lotz of fun!!!

Warning~~~~ your child may valley on Deja Vu slipnslide
Deja Vu slipnslide is not responsible for xcelloratating your child to dangers speeds and then throwing he.she into a steel gate.
If Deja Vu slipnslide makes sudden outbursts of racial slurs, dump nuclear waste on Deja Vu slipnslide to stop the outbursts


Its True ITS TRUE!!!!

No, CPzter, the X Pool would be the first Xtreme Kiddie Pool! Also, don't forget the Nitro Slip n Slide, the world's longest slip-n-slide, and Superman: the Sprinkler. Of course, having all the Six Flags toys makes your backyard "The Xtreme Backyard." Of course, having more backyard water toys than everyone else will draw in the neighborhood kid crowds, so you're going to want to buy the Six Flags Backyard Fastlane System to reduce the 2 hour wait lines on Nitro: Slip n Slide.

Coming Soon: Batman and Robin: The Chiller Waterballoon Fight.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now, Cedar Point toys, on the other hand, are excellent. Theres Cedar Point: the Video Game, for Playstation 2. This game rocks. Its like Crazy Taxi, but you have to deliver the guests to the coaster they want to ride. You can also drive in Lake Eerie, Sandusky, the Causeway, and on top of coasters, too. Very fun. Theres also a few more Cedar Point video games, including Millennium Force Adventure: a futuristic flight simulator, Magnum XL007, a first person shooter, and Disaster Transport: the Video Game. This is also similar to Crazy Taxi, only you fly a spaceship all over the galaxy delivering the cargo that the Dispatch Master Transport company gives you.

I think a good game would be Cedar Fair: the Simulator, where you buy parks, put lame theming and maybe even some landscaping around here and there, and build new rides. The only park you're allowed to completely theme is Knotts, and you also deal with seasonal employees and labor and you can only put the best rides in at Cedar Point. Also, you deal with your main competitor, Six Flags, where they have tons of debt and you're at least afloat.

I'm gonna go build my own theme park, with blackjack and hookers. In fact, forget the park!

Thats a really good idea.

For my Cedar Fair Game I would have

A James Bond sort of game. Where you would have to go to all the Cedar Fair parks and Six Flags parks and shoot the SF employees. The game would have puzzles to solve and missions to do, like find a way to power Raptor, or run across the station of Wicked Twister without being hit by the train. And have boss SF levels where you would have to find a way to stop all the rides in the park, in your ulimate goal of destoying X.

Someday....Someday...........
