what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard.

And they disclose at the top of the article that they made a mistake on that.

Cincinati has Wyandot Lake, that could be it right there. As far as Cleveland is consider, hell if I know why they would even put that. Here is the quote tho:



An article and photo in Friday's Business section about Six Flags Inc.'s Mr. Six advertising campaign gave an incorrect title for David Banta of the Doner ad agency in Southfield. Banta is the agency's creative director. The article also incorrectly said Six Flags has parks in Cleveland and Cincinnati.

Jurnolist need to do research before submitting things like that. I mean its not hard at all to find where every Six Flags park is... LOOK AT THE SIX FLAGS SITE... god, dumb people *** Edited 8/16/2005 12:45:41 PM UTC by Keith2005*** *** Edited 8/16/2005 12:47:37 PM UTC by Keith2005*** *** Edited 8/16/2005 12:47:49 PM UTC by Keith2005***

Keith, There is still Six Flags press material which states that there are parks near Cleveland and Cinci. Who realy cares anyway? The Free Press Corrected it.

Also, Journalists get to submit there stuff once. Once it is printed it cannot be directly edited. Unlike your post, which you have edited at least 4 times, and still have several spelling and grammar errors. :)

Guess who's back? Back Again? James K's back. Tell a friend.

"After disappointing attendance last year when it introduced the campaign, Six Flags said 753,000 people visited its parks in the April-though-June period of this year..."

How many parks is that? Doesn't that sound like some mighty skimpy numbers? It doesn't say 753,000 MORE people, just 753,000 people. That can't be right.

"Cincinati has Wyandot Lake, "

Wyandot Lake is in Columbus, not Cincinnati.

Thats true, my bad.... I posted that in a hurry.
"I rule the world. Now bow down."

...he says, after admitting that he placed Wyandot Lake in the wrong city.

Oh, the irony! ;)

edit: It took 14 hours for someone to point that out. Hmm, I need to read this more often :) *** Edited 8/17/2005 3:00:36 AM UTC by jimmybob***

I was reading this at work and laughed because the building that the firm is located in is about 10 minutes from my house. =P

Its a great slogan.

I never relized that the firm that made the adds were from michigan.

Several of the huge ad companies are based in or around Southfield, MI. I wonder if "Mr. Six" is a local actor or (as some think) actress?
