Six Flags America - Washington DC - Maryland - Theme Park - Upper Marlboro

This Six Flags has good a lot of negative attention over the year and this video explores if it is safe, worth going, and right for you and/or your family. I break the park down and do a full, complete, and comprehensive review to help your decision-making process easy and informed. I review the rides, staff, wait time, crowd level, safety, food, cleanliness, and the full park experience.

My concern now is the safety of the rides. When I see how run down the place is it makes me nervous about going on any of the rides. I did love this park when I was a kid (in the Adventure World days!) so it would be cool to go back but just nervous that I’d not want to get on any rides 😮

[@letsgoseeit457]

I can understand your concerns. There are a lot of teenagers who are the operators of these rides. It was something that I noticed, but it didn’t really give me a lot of concern for my safety. They did a fairly decent job making sure we were buckled and safe.

What's funny is that King's Dominion is much older but better maintained.

I actually watched the video and I don’t see a problem with the upkeep or the maintenance of the rides.

Great video. Loved every second of it. Most people write this place off as one of the worst theme parks, but it can be a great experience if you know what to expect. Hope to see more as they open the new land this summer. ❤

[@letsgoseeit457]

Totally agree!

Memorial day was very very crowded when we went here ❤

[@letsgoseeit457]

Yes, the holidays do draw a lot of crowds. Thank you for watching.

when i went to six flags america the coasters were empty but when i wanted to get on the harley quinn there were ton's of people wating to ride

[@letsgoseeit457]

That was the case for me as well. That’s one of the few rides that’s in high demand.

Maybe cause Universal Studios have the budget to make ppl feel like they're in a real Gotham City...Six Flags America did what they could

[@letsgoseeit457]

Don’t get me wrong. I appreciate what you’re trying to do. My thought is, if you can’t do a great job of doing it then don’t even do it at all. They would’ve been just perfectly fine, leaving it alone and not trying to create a world Immersion encounter.

Thanks for this! I'm curious to know if there is space to put a small purse at each of the rollercoasters (that's what I'm familiar with at the Mall of America park), or if I need to put all my belongings in a locker all day?

[@letsgoseeit457]

There are cubbies where you can put your belongings in before going on a roller coaster. However, they don’t guarantee the security of your belongings during the ride.

[@cmoney1928]

Do you feel a Flash Pass is worth it for this park?

[@letsgoseeit457]

No, absolutely not! If you’re wealthy and money means nothing to you - go ahead. However, if you thinking about value for a dollar then now.

[@kadenszn]

just say its in the dmv please

[@cmoney1928]

It is in Bowie, MD. I live in MD and never go to VA. It would be a lie to to lump VA into it as if it were close to Bowie.

[@letsgoseeit457]

Believe it or not, I thought about saying DMV. However, a lot of people who watch my channel aren’t familiar with that terminology and in my experience for TH-cam they don’t want to take the time to hear the explanation. But for locals that’s a great suggestion.
