Default Save Mr. Six!

Hello all! Have you seen the goofy old man that dances to "We like to Party" in the Six Flags commercials ? Well kids love him and he has been a wonderful success for Six Flags. Unfortunately Six Flags has recently been purchased by a rich man named Dan Snyder who apparently doesn't care what his own patrons want; he is planning to get rid of Mr. Six!

He will not only be robbing kids (and big kids ) everywhere of a mascot they love... think of the employees at the advertising company (Doner) that worked so hard and came up with a truly successful mascot! My sister is among these employees, and I don't think they deserve this slap in the face! I thought you were supposed to get a pat on the back?

I've already signed the petition at:
http://coaster-net.com/savemrsixpetition.php
because I don't find any justifications for this man's actions, except that he's rich off his butt.

If you can take the two seconds it takes to type your name and hit "Sign," kids everywhere will love you, parents will thank you, and employees might even invite you out for a party . Thanks for reading!

I HATE that stupid *** character....I hope they get rid of 'Mr. Six' as well...not only is that song just horrible and has been overplayed, but the idea of a dancing old man is just stupid and also has been overplayed. "Lets have old people do things they normally wouldn't" Either they act black like in that cell phone commercial, or they are dancing.

GEH, I can't believe there is actually a petition to 'save him' screw that.

And of course it's going to be some young girl or some crap, as far as the 'hands are too big' , dont they put make up or big fat gloves on the hands in the first place

DIE MR SIX, DIE!!

I'm not an expert but it doesn't look like gloves in the pictures to me. My money is on the type of guy who loves to dance, perform, and otherwise be gay. Happy and/or joyous, that is...

I don't dig Mr. Six all that much either however:
1.) I NEVER see the ads
2.) I'm even less of a fan of the rich guy who doesn't even seem to have the interest of his new company/patrons in mind.

Successful marketing campaign = more revenue = new, better coasters.

Poor marketing campaign = less revenue = no new rides, going out of business.
