Free admission falters at Six Flags

A Georgia amusement park is in trouble with some angry parents and motorists. Six Flags Over Georgia in Austell promoted free admission today … but had to close its doors at 6 am because it was at capacity with 74-hundred people already inside.

But Six Flags' officials turned those people away, saying people had to arrive in cars to take advantage of the offer.
