Right now the buy out looks like it's going south, some major unit holders have already voted "No"(reputedly members of the Knott family are amoung them) and the likelyhood of them achieving the necessary 2/3rd "yes" votes is decreasing by the day. They have already postponed the unit holders meeting (Cedar Fair has units , not shares) once, which has infuriated a sizable number of unitholders. The likelyhood of the sale not happening is good. The likelyhood of a new board of directors(the current board instituted this fiasco) being brought in after this is over with is also good. So for the forseeable future, operationally speaking, things are status quo.
