Everything is BIG in Texas, including the Six Flags Over Texas theme park in
Arlington. The park is named after the six different national flags that have
flown over Texas in the state's history--Spain, France, Mexico, the
Republic of Texas, the Confederate States of America, and the United States of
America. Starting with just ten rides in 1961, it now boasts over 100 thrill
and water rides, stage shows, and other attractions. Over 80 million visitors
have enjoyed Six Flags's thrills and fun in its 35 year history. But you don't
have to go to Texas for Six Flags fun. There are now seventeen Six Flags
amusement parks throughout the U.S.
