Six Flags New England, you are a liar! A liar! Or bad at math. But I'm guessing liar. And this time it isn't just a lunatic's rant, but a fact based tirade.

I passed a billboard today that said "Come to Six Flags! Now double the fun with 2 new rides!"

Now, I'm pretty good at math, but even if I wasn't, I'd be able to figure out that if you're doubling the fun with two new rides, then you'd only have had 2 rides to begin with, right?

And that does NOT make an amusement park. If it did, every parent who rents a pony and a jumpy-thing for their kids birthday could qualify for whatever tax advantages being an amusement park brings.

So, change the sign Six Flags. Technically, the amount of fun you're adding really depends on how many rides you have in the first place and is a percentage thereof.

Maybe you could change it to "Increase your fun by 1/32 with 2 new rides"... or something. Probably not as catchy, but at least it's honest.
