Herschend had a random flurry of activity on their YouTube channel today. Interesting video posted regarding the economics of the theme park industry and how HFE makes capital decisions and handles "IP"

Was nice to see the Herschend CEO has been to SDC.

I'm halfway joking.

It sounds like he understands that long term success won't be found by chasing the latest greatest thrill ride. Not everyone on this forum gets that.

That piece is from the end of June. My family is actually in it.
We've met Andrew Wexler (Herschend CEO) a few times. He is super nice, down to earth, and authentic just like the Herschend and SDC leadership.
