Six Flags sets new Guinness World Record for kissing

AUSTALL, Ga. — Just call them Kiss Flags Over Georgia.

The Six Flags park in Austell, along with six other parks in the corporate chain, set a new Guinness World Record for couples kissing under the mistletoe. The smoochy event Saturday drew 839 couples coast to coast.

"For the second year in a row at our park, hundreds of guests were a part of this world record and created a lifelong memory by kissing their loved one under the mistletoe during Holiday in the Park, which is a tradition in Atlanta," Six Flags Over Georgia Park President Dale Kaetzel said in a statement.

The results were verified by Guinness judge Christina Conlon.

"Six Flags really outdid itself this year," she said in a statement.

Holiday in the Park at Six Flags Over Georgia features more than one million LED lights in 15 holiday-themed areas, 29 world-class rides including nine roller coasters, joyful shows, festive foods and more. Holiday in the Park runs on select days through Jan. 4.
