Six Flags should be Boycotted for body shaming and banning a woman, claiming she was wearing too small shorts.

Per the article posted below; “A woman said a Six Flags officer threatened and body shamed her over shorts that were deemed too short for the Oklahoma amusement park.

Bailey Breedlove — who documented her experience at the Oklahoma City park on TikTok and Facebook — said she has since been banned from Six Flags.

Breedlove said she and her family were at Frontier City Theme Park for around two-and-a-half hours on April 30 before an officer approached her daughter for rolling down a hill on her skate shoes. The officer then began to yell at Breedlove for her shorts, she said.

“I committed no crime and proceeded to walk to my boyfriend as I am autistic and have a hard time talking to officers,” Breedlove wrote on Facebook. “She followed me yelling and calling for backup. Then your incompetent manager showed up and began body shaming me. I was told I needed to go buy new shorts which I am not obligated to purchase anything I don’t want to.”

People Upset About Cincinnati Coney Island Eliminating It’s Rides

Coney Island is removing all it’s rides

 

To many people, Coney Island is a sacred place where memories and dreams were made… a place we went with our parents as kids… a place we took our dates as teenagers.

I think it’s an outrage that Coney Island is getting rid of what few rides they had.

What Coney needs is MORE and better rides like they used to have like the Shooting Star and Wild Cat instead of completely eliminating them.

There’s some things in this world which are priceless… where money should NOT be the bottom line. Coney Island is such a place.

Since the current owners obviously don’t appreciate Coney’s history and how much it means to the people of Cincinnati, they should sell it the City of Cincinnati or to an organization which will restore it the incredible Amusement Park it once was.

The last day to ride the rides will be on Sept. 21, 2019.

 




Coney Island will shut down all its rides at the end of September to pursue what officials described Monday as a “new singular focus on (the) water park experience.” Instead of an all-purpose amusement park, CEO and president Rob Schutter Jr. said he hopes to transform the park into “the region’s premier swim and play destination” in time for Sunlite Pool’s 100-year anniversary in 2025.

 




Why Coney Island is Eliminating Its rides

 

Our history: The last time Coney Island got rid of its rides, they went to Kings Island in 1972

Coney Island has announced plans to close down all the amusement park rides to focus on the Sunlite Pool and Water Adventure rides, park officials announced Monday. They plan to dismantle the rides – including the Python, Topspin, Wipeout and River Runner – and relocate them to other theme parks.

Bush Gardens Tampa Denies Paid for Services

My name is Michael Boone, currently my girlfriend, Esmerelda King, and I are platinum pass holders. We live in Tampa and frequently visit Sea World and Bush Gardens Tampa Bay. This past weekend on 3/22/09 we visited Bush Gardens and were
denied the Preferred Parking.

I was advised that Preferred Parking was full and that we were not
permitted to even drive over to that lot and check for an open parking space. We of course followed the parking attendants instructions and ending up parking in a back lot and had to take the tram over to the main gate.

While the tram was taking us over to the main gait, Esemerelda and I both noticed numerous open parking spaces in the preferred parking area. This is the third time that we have had this happen to us when we go to Bush Gardens.

I can understand if it is a concern due to the fact that you don’t want to charge someone for preferred parking and then there is not one available for them. However preferred parking comes with my pass, its something that I do pay for and yet I am not even given the chance to check for parking.

I am very dissatisfied with the fact that I faithfully pay for something and am denied even the slightest opportunity to use it. I would appreciate some type of compensation for being denied services that I pay for.

If you are able to look what I have spent on my passes you will see that I spend a lot of money especially at sea world doing animal interactions and backstage tours. This is not the way a customer with the platinum pass should be treated, or any customer for that matter. I would not be this dissatisfied if this was the first time I have encountered this, however its now the third and that is
two times to many.
