Daniel Snyder, owner of the National Football League's Washington Redskins, said Friday, April 22, he might be interested in buying some or all of amusement park operator Six Flags Inc. Snyder, who owns about 8.75% of Six Flags through his Ashburn, Va., hedge fund Red Zone LLC, said he might also attempt to influence the Oklahoma City-based company's board and management through a proxy fight to consider any of several options, including a merger, a sale of assets, a business combination, and recapitalization or refinancing, according to a Securities and Exchange Commission filing.
