Six Flags America isn't better than both Hersheypark or Six Flags Great Adventure. Six Flags Great Adventure will whoop both those park's asses SOOO badly! I mean come on, they have coaster like Nitro and Medusa.

If you don't mind going to more than one park and you don't mind a little travelling, why not try this...

Give SFGrAdv a miss and hit Hersheypark, Dorney Park, and Knoebels.

Personally, I think that if you want to ride a bunch of coasters, go to Great Adventure if you only have time for one park. They have a bunch of coaster, Hershey doesn't have as many and the quality of them doesn't compare evenly. Although if you do go to Hershey, it is a nice park and Lightning Racer is awesome. You would still have a good time. I would just rather ride all of the coasters at SFGAdv.

Go to SFGAd, but if you can go to more than one park go to Hershey and Dorney and Knoebels

Lol, is this a joke. Of coarse go to SFGadv over Hershey. And you should be ashamed of yourself, taking the advice of a GP.

Ok, im not gonna start flaming, but youre the one whos full of it, buddy. You "diehard" Six Flags fans are startin to get on my nerves. Hershey is a great park, and as a matter-of-fact I'd rather go to Hershey than Six Flags. See, not only is about the coasters, its about atmosphere, and cleanliness, both which I feel SFGAdv lacks. The crowd control is horrible at SFGadv, at least the day I was there, and I found theres a lot of generally rude people there.

If you want totally roller coaster thrills, then yes, go to Six Flags, I will give you that. But if you're looking for a much friendlier and cleaner family park, then hit up Hershey. Its a great park, and I think you'd enjoy it.

SFGadv

$46 admission
$10 to park
crappy food, but very expensive
on the plus side Medusa, Nitro, and Batman only real good coasters.
Probably the best 6flags park out there.
Safari is cool but coasts extra.

Hershey
$32 admission
$6 to park
good food, a heck of alot cheaper for everything
Great Bear, Wild Mouse, Wildcat, Lightning racer
Much better atmosphire, cleaner, no gang fights, etc.
Smells like Chocolate all day.

You choose either park is a winner, I prefer Hershy though

Actually, the Safari is now included in admission price. I'd skip it though. I don't enjoy monkeys jumping on my car.
