Six Flags Great America

Some of the funnest things I’ve ever done were things I didn’t want to do. Things that used to scared me are things that I look forward to doing now. I’ve learned a lot of things just by going out and doing something out of my comfort zone. Some fun things are disguised as bad, so we decided not to do it because we may not like it. One of my most learning experiences was at Six Flags Great America. As we entered the gates to the park, everyone was excited, except for me. Because, I made a promise that I was not sure that I could keep. As I got further into the park my ears were being filled with the screams of terror and thrill. But, I ignored that because the only thing I could focus on was the big orange roller coaster, “The Raging Bull”…

People in California often debate over the best place to visit, Six Flags or Great America. Great America is a 100-acre amusement park located in Santa Clara California. Six Flags Discovery Kingdom is a 135-acre animal theme park located in Vallejo. Both parks have different environments, which means they attract two different groups of people. Six Flags is a better place because they have animals and better rides. Some people may say Great America has more rides but Six Flags has better quality…

Instead of being at the mercy of the ride, people are able to have some degree of control. This allows a deeper impression to be made on the people that participate. Whether the park rider is attempting to beat a high score or race an opponent to the finish line, interactive rides change entertainment in amusement parks. One example of an interactive ride became known to me at a young age when our family went to Six Flags Great America. Not long after being inside the park, I found the bumper…

It has consumed my thoughts whenever I go to a fair or amusement park for a day that should be filled to the brim of thrill-intensive joy. This fear led to my ever-growing terror of heights as well. Whenever I look at a roller coaster, I’m filled with a terrible foreboding, and thoughts of the car departing from its tracks and taking an unforeseen trip of its own towards the hard concrete below flood my mind like a Japanese tsunami. I cringe when I come close to the end of the line to get on…

I. Introduction: A. On October 30th, 2005, Houston, Texas lost its only major amusement park when Six Flags decided to close the gates to AstroWorld after operating since the summer of 1968. B. AstroWorld was once full of history and thrilling attractions, and although some of the rides have been taken elsewhere, it may soon be open for business under a new name. C. Now, unless you are a native Houstonian or visited Houston when AstroWorld was still up and running, then you probably weren’t…

I’m here to tell you one very important thing: DO NOT go to Six Flags with your friends. That probably made me sound like the lamest person on Earth, but after you hear my reasoning, you will understand why. I’ve visited Six Flags many times. This past summer, I went with my two best friends. It was a blast… until about halfway through. We passed a ride called the “Dragon Wing.” It’s one of those sights that you can’t walk past without stopping to watch. On this gigantic death trap, some workers…

What does the Confederate battle flag stand for? Discussion’s on whether the battle flag should be taken down or fly high has spiraled out of control, and has become one of the biggest debates nationwide today. Multiple states have yet to determine which side they have chosen to represent. Each individual person has the right to their own opinion. Although, the question remain’s, is the Confederate battle flag a symbol of racism and hatred, or a symbol of American History? What percentage…

The Confederate Flag: Racist or Not? Is the confederate flag racist or not? The Confederate flag is not an official battle flag. It was the battle flag of General Robert E. Lee’s unit. Which leads me to ask, how can you judge someone you don’t know for flying the confederate battle flag? Even though the Confederate flag represents a time of succession, the flag still has other representations; therefore, we shouldn’t ban/nor take down the flag because it is a battle flag but there are still…
