When it comes to theme parks and amusement parks, Disney and Universal get all the press. However, when it comes to size, other companies like Cedar Fair and Six Flags are the true behemoths, with both having many more locations in North America. If rumors turn out to be true, they could get even bigger, as it's being reported that Six Flags and Cedar Fair are in merger talks. If this happens, an announcement could come as early as Thursday morning.
Reuters is reporting that sources have told them that the talks of a possible merger are happening, though it’s unclear at this point if the two sides will reach an agreement. Six Flags and Cedar Fair have discussed merging previously without coming to a deal, so that certainly could be where this ends up going as well. That said, with Cedar Fair set to have its quarterly earnings call in the morning, one has to wonder if we're on track for a huge announcement.
