| | ThrillNetwork.com :: Destination Spotlight: Six Flags Over Georgia |
 | | Six Flags Over Georgia opened to the public on June 16, 1967 as the second park in the Six Flags chain. |
 | | Developed by Angus Wynne, the same man who had built Six Flags Over Texas earlier in the decade, the park’s areas were themed to the six “flags” that have flown over the State of Georgia, which are — in alphabetical order — the British, Confederate, French, Georgia, Spanish and the United States of America. |
 | | With Six Flags’ recent financial struggles, the emphasis on roller coasters has declined, and will likely continue to do so in the wake of 2006’s $20 million Goliath roller coaster and new management’s pledge to make their parks fun for the entire family. |
