Abandoned P. Joe's Pretzels and Churros concession stand at Six Flags New Orleans amusement park.

P. Joe's Pretzels and Churros operated as a concession stand at Six Flags New Orleans, a 140-acre amusement park in the Eastern New Orleans neighborhood of New Orleans East. The park opened in 2000 as Jazzland before Six Flags took over operations in 2002 and rebranded it the following year. Six Flags New Orleans closed permanently after Hurricane Katrina flooded the site with several feet of saltwater in August 2005, and ownership disputes with the City of New Orleans have kept it shuttered ever since. Several ride structures from the park's operating years remain standing nearby.
