'''Six Flags''' is the world largest chain of amusement parks. They have parks in every region of the United States with the exception of the Northern Midwest. Since not too many people live there it wouldn't have been financially feasible to build a park there. I assume. At one point they were $2,000,000,000 in debt but were able to restructure and become profitable.
'''Six Flags''', Inc. is the world's largest ''regional'' theme park company and the second leading amusement park operator in the United States, [[Walt Disney]] Company being the first. It is unique in that it maintains two corporate headquarters, in [[Oklahoma City]] and [[New York City]]. Six Flags runs 20 family-friendly theme parks in the [[United States]], [[Canada]], [[Mexico]], and [[Europe]]. The company estimates that 65% of the U.S. population lives within 150 miles of one of its parks, located in 35 out of the top fifty major metropolitan areas. <ref>[http://www.fundinguniverse.com/company-histories/Six-Flags-Inc-Company-History.html Funding Universe: Six Flags, Inc.]</ref> It was founded in 1961 by Texas property and oil man Angus Wynne II. <ref>[http://investors.sixflags.com/phoenix.zhtml?c=61629&p=irol-irhome Six Flags - Official Website]</ref>
