Six flags added a modern rollercoaster that was awesome. I think it was called “The Joker”. Other than that I don’t remember many differences.

They rebranded one of the coasters along those lines and added a Batman ride that was pretty good.

This is what I remember.

Jazzland was cool just because it was a unique place in Louisiana, but it was pretty bland and underwhelming once you compared it to six flags in other states.

Six Flags only improved it a little bit. I'm sure by now it would have been pretty decent if it kept developing, but I think even without Katrina it would have been abandoned.

They had absolutely zero plan to generate excitement beyond opening season
