I'm going to Texas in September for one weekend. Unfortunately, the parks are only open weekends. I love airtime woodies and B&M's. Which two Six Flags parks in Texas would you recommend I visit?
Also, any idea on how busy they will be?

I would say SFFT, I think that SFOT has more quanity, and maybe even quality, but SFFT is pretty original and different for a SF park.

What is life without SFA?
That's such a tough one. SFFT has the best B&M in Texas, Superman Krypton coaster. It has better theming, and is a BEAUTIFUL park. The rock quarry is truly one of a kind. SFOT is more paths to rides. The Texas Giant, IMO, is the greatest ride in texas. However, I won't lie to you, it IS rough. What a ride, though! Mr. Freeze is great (slightly better than poltergeist), and so is shockwave. Judge Roy Scream is okay. I would say you're in a tough situation. SFFT is more fun because of an awesome german restaurant, better theming, better non-coaster rides (especially their log flume) and some great rides. Rattler is okay, but nothing compared to Texas Giant.
Astroworld is okay, but nothing compared to these two. Greezed lightnin' is like any other shuttle loop, and texas cyclone is pretty amazing. Those are the only two there worth mentioning(although texas tornado, which was closed, looks great too)If all you care about is coasters, go for this: For good wood, go to SFOT, for good steel, go to SFFT. Personally, if I was given the chance to visit just one again, I would be equally happy at either sfft or sfot.
From what I've heard, and proved by the other posters, either go for SFFT or SFoT.
I would personally choose SFoT. Don't forget their 2001 major addition, Titan. Should be excellent.
out of SFFT and SFoT i think i would go to SFot because they have a bigger selection of rides. Im not saying SFFT isnt a good park its just that SFoT have more rides and if you only get to go to one park choose the one wit more coasters.
