Which Six Flags Parks are most alike each other?

Which Six flags parks are most alike each other and why?

I think SFMM and SFGAm are most alike and here are the reasons:

-wooden racers(ae, colosus)

-Psyclone and Viper are similar

-Stand up(iron wolf, riddler)

-Both have batman

-7 looping coaster(shockwave and viper)

-Raging Bull and Goliath have similar beginnings.

-Both have Deja Vu

-Had close to the same coaster count before 2000(9,11)

Do you think Six Flags made them similar on purpose or by coincidence?

-----------------
V2 can't be compared to any of the rides in SFGAm!The Vertical Drop was amazing!

coincedence!
-----------------
Out of the coasters i've ridden here is wat i rank them overall:(ive been to canobie lake and SFNE)
1. S:RoS 2. Yankee Cannonball 3. Riverside Cyclone 4. Canobie Corkscrew 5. Thunderbolt 6. Galaxy 7. Mind Eraser 8. Dragon coaster 9. poison ivy's tangled

After the first two drops, Goliath and Raging Bull are totally different. The first drop of Goliath isn't even comparable. I would have to say a family tree like this(not exactly in order by year parks started):

Rich family

Six Flags over Texas(Grandaddy still rollin', may be old but always trying to keep up with the today)

Six Flags over Georiga(Mother of the parks, always bringing new (coaster)gems to the world.)

There they had two children:

SFGAdv and SFMM )

SFMM had adopted: Astroworld has one smallchild, SFDL who eventually met up with SFStL to have

SFGAm married SFA

who gave birth to SFMW & SFFT

the servant: SFAW(got left overs) Astroworld has one smallchild, SFDL who eventually met up with SFStL and unexpectedly had Elitch Gardens, who they soon forgot about. SFAW later fell in love with SFFT and fan away with her. There they had SF Mexico. The rest of the parks are cousins, foriegn relatives, or beggers.

I'm not sure what to think about that, Vertigo...

Theme Park breeding??

0-82 in 2.3 seconds! =Wow!

I would be very suspicious of in-breeding in Vertigo's "Wild world of theme park family trees"...but it DOES explain why they look so similar, LMAO...

I know that this really isn't a complete thing, but...
Six Flags Great America and Paramount's Great America or almost the exact same, before it was exactly the same.
Wel, I know that's off the topic a little but that's completely right to comparing ;)

Chris K. SFGAm and PGA are nothing alike anymore. The only thing that might be similar is their layout. And Demon.

That's what I was meaning Alf! :)

I mean, we all know that there is breeding within some parks (PKI for instance) but breeding of entire parks?

That's a coaster orgy I'd like to see. :)

Quasi sexual coaster speak....interesting...

I saw the Twisted Sisters in a threesome with Judge Roy Scream.

Result? GASM.

You can't spell "dishonorable" without "honorable."

SFA and SFNE

both have S:RoS

and both have Mind Eraser!

I thought it was a very funny joke!

oh jeez.

This topic is getting somewhere fast ;).. I am just waiting for somebody to say "All the Six Flags are alike, they all suck!!".. oh no.. here we go... =/ ... don't even test me on this one.

SFMM & SFWoA, I think they both have awesome rides, but both lack in customer service and quality in my opinion. I havn't been to many SF theme parks, though... [SFDL, SFMM, SFWoA, SFNE] although I am sure thats a lot compared to others, and am lucky to have done even that. =)

Yeah Den, you could have at least said OrGASM (Original Great American Scream Machine @ SFoG)

Okay, okay, enough! Before this topic gets closed for the insanity, I will add my .02. SFWoA and SFMW are VERY similar. Both have SLC's, Boomerangs, Floorlesses, Impulses, the list goes on and on! It's remarkable how similar they are. Both have wildlife areas and both are getting new coasters at rapid rates. Both are taking a year off this year. One of the few differences is MW is much less crowded, at least when I went.

OK, sorry for the bad joke. But really, is a legion of hackers supposed to scare me? ;)
