That park is an embarrassment to the Houston area. Why can't they build a real theme park. Not some stupid Texas themed Hee Haw park. I hope it flops.

What is a "real theme park"?

Is 6 Flags Fiesta Texas not a real theme park?

How is a park themed to Texas history a embarrassment? I think they've made a good decision to go with a new idea that doesn't follow what you probably consider "a real theme park".

They should build a Texans-themed amusement park. I want JJ Watt to catch me at the end of each roller-coaster ride.

I read about Grand Texas on chron.com. A big theme park would fill a void the Houston area is missing.

Hope they change the logo if this thing happens.

A newer version of the logo is on their Facebook page. No horse.
