You eat Papa John's inside of an Amusement Park?????????
I was STUNNED yesterday when I saw that Papa Johns is inside Six Flags Great Adventure. Why is it in there?? Who wants to eat something they can get anytime when they are not at a amusement park? And Yes People were standing in line to eat Papa John's at a amusement Park I guess McDonald's Wil be next. I thought that the purpose of going to an amusement Park was to eat things you nornally don't eat???????-lol |

They had a report on the local news here recently about how many heath violations the amusement parks and stadium concession stands had. In some ways I would feel a little "safer" eating Papa John's as opposed to a place just in the stadium/amusement park.

I'm thinking maybe because of sponsorship... Papa John's may be a Six Flags sponsor so they allow them to have a location inside.
Other theme parks have other restaurant names inside... like I know Disney has a McDonald's cart that only sells french fries. |

What's the difference, Solomon? People are going to eat whatever, wherever. Having been to Toronto's Skydome a few times (now Roger's Centre) they have a Mcdonalds there. You wouldn't believe the amount of people that go there and eat McDonalds while watching a sporting event!
Solomon, you of all people should know a big name food franchise is going to attract people wherever they go. Pizza is a big sell at any amusement park, so why does it surprise you that Papa John's is at Six Flags? |

I'm not talking about a sporting event, I'm talking about an amusement park. A place that you will not be that often. You can go to a sporting event al year around but only 4 to 5 months out the year you can go to a theme park. So you should be eating food that you don't get to eat that often. |

I'm saying that I would rather buy pizza from a place that is not part of a chain. Just some place in a amusementpark with a sign that says-"PIZZA" |

I get what you're saying. My thought is why eat something that you can have any day. People should try to eat new things or things that are strickly amusment park or fair foods. |

Wait. What where you doing at Six Flags? I thought you did not like amusement parks and rollercoaster’s. Did you ride any rides? Or did you Play games and watch the shows? |

A lot of my coworkers decided that we should go since we get along so well but I should have stayed home because six flags is not for a causal rider. Plus they took one of my rides out of the park called the "falling star" which was there the last time I was at the park in 2002. I see the rolling thunder is still there and that ride was there in 1989-lol |
