What's Six Flags?

Just for breathing in the air they wanna leave me in the chair

Six Flags America, located in southern Md. If memory serves, it used to be Adventure World: The Great Escape.

There's a Six Flags in Bowie too, if I'm not mistaken. Don't remember where the one in southern MD is, though, but I think I've been there.

you live in NYC. In all likelyhood, what you consider to be "light" traffic would be 10x worse than when I-95 has a car accident near the beltway.

There's also a Six Flags outside Chicago that every northern Illinois and southern Wisconsin high school physics class makes a trip to. I know I rather enjoyed my trip.

I hate you. Guess where my only field trip of the year is to?





The waste treatment facility across the road from my school.

Haven't been on a field trip since 10th grade trip to Schlitterbahn(one of the best water parks ever)
