Please tell me this is just a rumor.
Bunch of people I know are telling me fucking towelheads bought kennywood!
It better not be true, next thing you’ll know the potato patch will be gone and they’ll be putting in a curry patch.
wtf.
If its true i bet a bunch of rednecks burn the place down
spanish group bought it
who cares it needs some new leadership anyway. it has turned into a shithole
ohh, well thats not as bad as the arabs taking over every gas station in sight
Along those lines,
I heard Trump bought Nemacolin…true?
Worst thing about your post. you can’t even define a " towel head "
other than the people that go… i think the park itself is still the same… we are just older… can;t do anything about the patrons without jesse jackson showing up.

Sorta getting the impression they have been looking for the right buyer for awhile. Hopefully something good comes out of it.
bring back the laser loop, Then kennywood will interest me…
if you kill jesse jackson in pittsburgh area, I’ll give you a shinny nickel and a lap dance from nonsexywhitechick.
the lazer loop was sold and reinstalled in kuwiat (sp?) … no joke
Mexico city dumbass
same difference… towel heads…wet backs… all the same
Just a low life from city of pittsburgh all the same

Yes, the park will have new owners, but it was also announced that the current employees and managers would stay. I would expect many changes if any.
