Eat Roach & Skip Lines @ Six Flags Over Texas

September 21, 2006

Six Flags Over Texas Serving Up Some Bad Theme Park Food
Chalk this one up as one of the strangest park promotions ever. Dallas/Fort Worth’s Star-Telegram reports that park-goers can skip lines at Six Flags Over Texas by eating a roach. Not just any roach, but a 3-inch long Madagascar hissing cockroach. Down one of these crunchy babies and you get a Flash Pass for the rest of the day. I loved walking past the 2-hour waits and packed ride queues at Great Adventure thanks to the Flash Pass. But I don’t think I’m ready to eat something THAT big and nasty for it. Plus, lines are normally shorter later in the operating season. No thanks!
