 The following information is just speculation and discussion. Anyways, let's get started. So there is some pretty bad news swirling around in the Cedar Fair amusement industry. I think it is no secret that theme parks are struggling this year. I got an email from Bloomberg basically stating expect Cedar Fair's conference call numbers for August 3rd to be extremely below expectations, and we know that's the case with Six Flags. But I'm here to talk about Cedar Fair and Canada's Wonderland. What is going on attendance wise? Why are the numbers dwindling? What's going on? So I'm going to give you guys the information that I speculate is going on at Canada's Wonderland. And I know this to be true at Carowinds and Cedar Point and 100% Knotsbury Farm. But yeah, numbers are low, extremely low. In fact, Canada's Wonderland is probably having its worst season in a while. And I'll explain why. For those of you that go first thing in the morning, you're probably like, what? That can't be the case. It's so busy. Well, if you're at the park after around 6-7pm, the park is all walk-ons. This has never been the case. In fact, I could literally scroll on my TikTok till last year and the videos we were filming at the end of the night on Leviathan with the crowds cheering and a full line and all that, that's dwindling. It's becoming almost a walk-on for Leviathan and a walk-on for Yukon Striker and Behemoth at the end of the day and the paths are dead and the park is dead. It's honestly beautiful. But if you are a business person and you are someone that is like really wanting large investments, this could be a hit or miss for that. But this is a bad sign for a lot of parks, especially for parks like Heroines and Knotsbury Farm. It's honestly, I don't even know where to start. So this is bad news. This is going to change things. This is going to change investments. Some parks will see better investments. Some parks that had investments planned will see those cancelled. But nonetheless, a park like Canada's Wonderland has seen this trending for over the season now. Winter Fest was a write-off essentially last season. It did really bad. I can confirm that from conversations with park officials. And I can confirm that Canada's Wonderland is having one of its worst seasons yet so far. And I don't know exactly yet what is causing that. I mean, we could jump to conclusions that all those TikToks and videos with the fights at the beginning of the season have definitely caused that. But I will argue that Canada's Wonderland did their due diligence and I feel a lot safer at Canada's Wonderland. They are kicking people and banning people every day for even just filming on rides now. You are like receiving one-year bans. The people I filmed, even climbing Wonder Mountains in that section, received a ban. So Wonderland is being really strict and that does show and tell me that that is the reason that attendance is lower. At least that's the reason Cedar Fair. And they've definitely opted to be extra strict with line jumping, any rule breaking essentially. So be really careful if you're a patron of a Cedar Fair theme park. They are banning people left, right and center for rules broken. But I mean, there is also an economic downturn occurring, a slight one or a serious one for some who have variable mortgages. But yeah, it is difficult times. People have next to no extra spending money and that could mean like even gas money to get to the park or bus fare to get to the park. People are definitely living a lot more stigian again. And even a bus fare to get to a park is extra income for a lot of these people now with what's going on in the world. So it could be a multitude of things. And when you go to a theme park, you know, you need the drinks to survive a whole day. You need like food and people don't have $50 to spend on a weekend or a day a week to go to a theme park anymore. So the people you're seeing at the theme park are the season pass holders and less daily ticket holders. And I have a feeling that is what we're going to hear on August 3rd conference call is the daily ticket sales are down. Group sales are up and season passes are up. But then that leads to a less average dollar ticket. But we'll have to see because this is a really hard one to predict on what's going on. For example, I know not spray farm is doing the worst compared to previous season in the chain this year. They've already warned like Cedar Fair has warned on the last conference call that you know, there was a huge decline in attendance, visitations over at not spray farm. Carol wins was already doing bad. And then, you know, Fury 325 happened. And that's definitely greatly impacted attendance over there. Top fill dragster being down is definitely impacted Cedar Point. I've heard they have some of the lowest fast lane sales over at Cedar Point this year. So that's definitely why you've seen those daily fast lane sales or the one use fast lane sales come out at Cedar Fair. So there's definitely a lot going on and it's definitely a little eerie. You are going to see consequences to this. You do not have your worst season in a while happen at a business and them still invest in all the parks fairly. Obviously, you're not going to see things already planned and submitted like the Worlds of Fun or the Dorney Park. The dive coaster that's already planned isn't going to be affected. Any co like top fill dragster obviously isn't going to be affected, but you're going to see 2025, 2026, some 2024 investments scaled back. I mean, we saw it with the spinning coaster at Cedar Point. They had other planned restaurants and then they scaled back a bit. So those are some of the consequences you're going to see. You're going to see labor cuts. This is where you guys are going to notice it. So you're going to notice right away at any Cedar Fair park. I heard that a lot of emails were going out at Cedar Point and I expect the same to happen at Canada's Wonderland, them cutting back and trimming fat on labor. So you're going to see rides operating at minimal staff. You're going to see them opening less restaurants, less just everywhere. So definitely keep an eye out for that because you're going to notice it there as well. But this is definitely sad news and we'll see if Cedar Fair is able to turn it around with offering cheaper discount tickets. And yeah, I just think it is really tough economic times right now. And this is just a, unfortunately, they're going to have to ride this one out for the next year or two and hope for the best. We'll have to see what happens. But if you were looking for shorter lines, definitely head to the park anytime after 6pm. The park starts to clear out. I can tell you Wonderland is walk-ons for essentially anytime after 7pm, 8pm. Complete walk-ons at the park. You do not need fast lane after those hours. And yeah, so visit the park at night. I think it is a whole vibe at night. So definitely visit. Anyways, that is my information on what's going on with Cedar Fair. I'll know more August 3rd on the conference call for stockholders. But yeah, have a good one guys. Bye.
