what do theme parks do during bad weather?

[1preppyjock]

some of the rides are outdoor, do they still operate them?

i wonder.

i know from disneyland that they shut down most rides like the teacups if it rains since itd be slippery outside. but they wont shut down rides that go inside buildings unless theres lighting. then they shut down all the rides. parks like knotts berry farms shut down or never open since most of their rides are outside.

Six Flags here just lets them sit dormant. They do park remodels and work on upgrades and heavy preventive maintenance. When it gets a bit warmer they begin testing the rides and doing security checks. They also go through and start trapping and removing the rats, poisonous snakes, and other unwanted squatters they take up home in the park during the winter.

What they do is MOSTLY WITHOUT which pisses of the share holders and the levy ers of taxes. Fuck the moron patrons, they should just leave their checks, cash debit or charge card info at the front booth which will still be open to tell you teh establishment is closed.....

They suck during bad weather, 'cause they ain't much fun. That's what they do.

I was in Hershey Park during a surprise downpour and they shut down all the rides. You could still stay in the park, and go into the arcades and stuff, though.

do they give refunds during bad weather?

probably not.

We all yell "PARTY TIME!" and meet up in the bathroom where we begin doing massive lines of coke. We fucking party like it's 1999 all over again. Epic cokestorms, the likes of which you've only heard of from gays who were around in the 70's & 80's. It might be raining outside, but it's snowing like a motherfucker in the bathroom. Can you say blizzard?

I just LOL'd.
