SIX FLAGS ST. LOUIS

    NEW YORK, May 14 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Six Flags ( SIX) has
 thrill rides, shows and attractions for families and guests of all ages -
 and today Six Flags officially adds bowling to the list!
     Delivering on its promise to expand the range of entertainment at its
 parks across the country, Six Flags announced today a partnership with the
 PBA (Professional Bowlers Association) to host a PBA summer bowling event
 at Six Flags St. Louis.
     The "2007 PBA All-Star Shootout Hosted by Six Flags St. Louis" will
 take place June 14-17, 2007 at Six Flags St. Louis, where the PBA's
 best-known bowling stars will compete, as well as meet and greet park
 guests and conduct clinics and pro-amateur bowling events in which some
 lucky Six Flags guests will win an opportunity to take on the pros. The
 PBA's Top Ten bowlers will take part in this event, including National
 Champion and PBA Hall of Famer Pete Webber.
     "Our partnership with the Professional Bowlers Association is the
 perfect example of our approach to guest entertainment at Six Flags," said
 Dan Weinberg, Six Flags Vice President of Entertainment. "With the
 popularity of bowling, and especially given the large bowling fan base here
 in the greater St. Louis area, our new relationship with the PBA is the
 perfect opportunity to add to our roster and give Six Flags guests an
 entertainment experience they can't find anywhere else. Not only will they
 have the opportunity to witness a sanctioned PBA event up close and
 personal as it unfolds over a four-day period - they'll have the chance to
 meet or even challenge some of the best bowlers in the world."
     Beginning June 24, ESPN will air 15 half-hour shows devoted to the
 tournament, and the show will air for five straight weeks through the end
 of June. Admittance into all events will be included in the price of
 admission to Six Flags St. Louis.
