Did Atheists succeed in sinking Ark Encounter attendance?

Dan Barker’s Freedom from Religion Foundation (FFRF) is an anti-Christian support group run by neo-Pagan Atheists who make a living by playing the victimhood card and begging for donations to file lawsuits—learn all about why this statement is accurate here.

They seemed pleased enough with Bob Kellogg’s article Atheists try to sink Ark Encounter attendance, that the linked to it from their site with nothing but a headline and a hyperlinked URL.
This is because the article is about how, like most activist-militant Atheists, the FFRF is so in support of censorship that they are “warning public schools not to visit the recently-opened ‘Ark Park’ in Kentucky or face a lawsuit” (FYI: that was written in 2016 AD). I wonder if the FFRF are warning public schools not to visit allegedly “natural history” museums or face a lawsuit since those museums are admixtures of 1) actual evidence and the bulk which is 2) Atheist-evolutionist-worldview-philosophy interpretations of evidence.

Answers in Genesis (AiG) established the Ark Encounter, as well as the Creation Museum, AiG’s Mark Looy has noted that the FFRF appear to be “‘more angry than ever’ at public displays of Christian faith” with their whole reason for existing being just that, to censor any and all public displays of Christian faith which have any relation to government.

Why Atheists really hate the Ark Encounter

As if it needed to be stated, and apparently yes the FFRF needs to learn this basic lesson in law, Looy noted that “public schools that attend the exhibit don’t have to fear that they’re violating the Establishment Clause of the U.S. Constitution,” as the article puts it and to which I will add: because it state no such thing.

But with this as a mere example of Atheist-evolutionists losing their minds about the fact that they own 99.9% of all museums and such displays (as well as having their agenda promulgated in public schools, children’s TV shows, movies, books, etc., etc., etc.) have Atheists succeed in sinking Ark Encounter attendance?

AiG’s Ken Ham noted that the FFRF issued a press release with titled, “FFRF Warning More Than 1,000 School Districts About New ‘Noah’s Ark’” and that in doing so they are “undermining or encouraging the violation of the First Amendment by bullying school districts with this threat. (Their usual threatening technique is to try to intimidate people to do what FFRF wants—not what the Constitution of the United States of America guarantees!) On the basis of the First Amendment of the US Constitution, public schools are absolutely free to take students on field trips (with appropriate parental permissions).”

Attorneys at the Center For Religious Expression affirm that “Once again, FFRF is wrong. Public schools are free to take students on field trips to any place they find educationally beneficial.”

As if it needed to be stated, and apparently yes the FFRF needs to learn yet another basic lesson, Stephen Pruitt, Kentucky Education Commissioner, noted that outside groups and state education officials should not dictate field trip selection.

But have Atheists succeed in sinking Ark Encounter attendance?

As it turns out AiG was awarded the Star of Tourism Award for Economic Impact by the Northern Kentucky Convention and Visitors Bureau (KYCVB).
This pertains to total economic impact, job creation, etc. Mark Looy and Mike Zovath addressed hotel owners, elected officials, restaurant owners and others that the orgs during the KYCVB’s annual meeting—meanwhile, the FFRF, like, sent out an all caps tweet or sump’n.
