By A recent visit to Six Flags Over Georgia has ignited a viral conversation about theme park food prices after TikTok user Jarred Sanders, known as @deezyrides, shared his astonishment at the cost of a single slice of cheese pizza. Sanders discovered that a plain cheese slice was priced at $16.99, while a pepperoni slice cost $17.99, prompting him to describe the prices as “absolutely diabolical.”
The TikTok video, which quickly amassed over 215,000 views, shows Sanders visibly shocked by the pricing at Piedmont Primo’s Pizzeria within the park. He also noted an additional $1.30 surge charge on top of the already high base price. The slice reportedly comes with a choice of chips, side salad, or garlic knots, but even these additions failed to justify the cost for many viewers.
This revelation has sparked a broader discussion about theme park dining expenses, with many commenters comparing Six Flags’ prices unfavorably to other parks and establishments. Some viewers noted that even Disney’s notoriously high food prices seemed reasonable in comparison, while others referenced the value offered by Costco’s food court.
Sanders’ experience is not isolated. Another TikToker, food vlogger Steve Cha, recently shared similar observations about Six Flags Over Georgia’s food prices, describing an $18.50 burger meal as overpriced and underwhelming. Cha advised future visitors to bring “lots of money” to enjoy the park’s offerings.
This incident comes at a time when theme park enthusiasts are already grappling with rising costs across the industry. Disney recently announced price hikes for some of its 2025 tickets, with the least expensive single-day, single-park ticket increasing from $109 to $119.
Six Flags Over Georgia, a 290-acre park built in 1967, has long been known for its high prices. Current one-day access tickets start at $29, while the 2024 Diamond Pass, offering a VIP experience, is priced at $175.
The viral nature of Sanders’ video highlights growing consumer frustration with theme park pricing strategies. As parks continue to adjust their prices, visitors are increasingly vocal about their expectations for value and quality in their entertainment experiences.
This incident raises questions about the sustainability of current theme park pricing models and their impact on visitor satisfaction. As the debate continues, it remains to be seen how parks like Six Flags will respond to this public scrutiny of their food and beverage offerings.
