Short Shorts at Six Flags

[jdb in AZ]

If the amusement park has a "dress code" they should have mentioned it before allowing the woman into the park instead of shaming her a few hours later.

Sounds like we got one side of the story. I’m sure there is another side.

There are always at least three sides to a story.

In this case:
She says
Six Flags says
The truth

Her side, she posted a picture to show that the shorts she had on were not obscene:

Dress code is on the website. Doesn't say anything about short shorts (and yeah, those are pretty short) but management has discretion to determine what's inappropriate.

With that said, I don't know if a rent-a-cop has that same authority to exercise discretion.

I guess I don't get it. Its six flags??? Can't you get away with wearing a thong into six flags? I thought they only kicked out people that get into fights there. The most dangerous place in Los Angeles isn't some neighborhood in South Central but Six Flags Magic Mountain.

Something isn't adding up.

The part about her daughter and the heelies makes me suspect that they were approached about that issue. If the mother went on a rant about that I could see where things could have gone south.

I've seen shorter than that at DL and definitely at our local MM. I think there's more to the story and they're making it all about the shorts now.

Yes! I have seen more booty at DL too. No way was this was purely about the shorts. I am not buying it. And I don't understand why her being on the spectrum means anything? For someone who is nervous to interact with people she sure is spilling the beans all over social media.

Agree @kymom99, my best guess is she went off after they got yelled at about her daughters Heelies. Her reaction must have crossed the line, and they asked her to leave. Somehow in this exchange the shorts got mentioned (I don't understand why/how, but it did.) When she wouldn't leave the park that is when we see the tiny video clip in which only the boyfriend mentions the shorts.

Overall, I think it is likely a non-story the woman is trying to make into one. I just feel sorry for the daughter. I hate watching kids in distress.

I have no clue. She could be leaving out pertinent details... maybe not. Sometimes there are power hungry people who are also bad at their jobs and have no business in roles that deal with the public. Either could’ve been the main problem or maybe even a bit of both.

After almost a year and a half of COVID news, it's kind of nice in a sense to see news about theme parks, even if it is about something dumb like short shorts.

My thoughts too. I'm guessing mom copped a big ole attitude over the fact that her precious princess couldn't endanger others with those stupid heelies and things went downhill from there.

I know! And this one has it all!

Mom with autism, forbidden Heelys in an amusement park, body shaming, shorty shorts, and trauma.

We're back, Baby!

I don't like that they mention that she's autistic - it's not relevant. I'm autistic and I don't want it being used for sympathy or to make the guard look worse.

I'm really confused about the sequence of events. They handcuffed her when she was already leaving? I don't get that.

She mentioned it because she thought it would make the story more credible.

The only real complaint I feel she has is her complaint about security...especially if they identified themselves as police. If they want to escort her out then that’s fine but if you want real law enforcement then call a real cop.

Yuck. So unpleasant seeing people's butts sticking out of the bottom of their shorts. I wish everywhere had a dress code that banned these lol.

 

[Cheburashka]

I don't buy this woman's story, either. Sounds like she is describing events out of context and angling to get a settlement, frankly.

Agreed. At least her mask is on correctly.

It says Police on her shirt.
