Hey all, while I'll be asking questions regarding my trip specifically, I think this could be a good thread for any general questions people have regarding some things they may or may have not done beforehand at UOR. Since I don't think these belong in a specific thread relating to the attractions, I thought this might be a good thread for trip planning and such. If mods disagree please feel free to delete and switch these over somewhere else, my apologies if this is in the wrong place.
Beside the point, in my 10+ years of going to Universal, you'd be shocked to learn there are a few things I still have never done! For reference, I'll be attending this coming April. So, a couple questions:
- Is Poseidon Fury run on a show schedule, or is it open all day? For those who have done it, what is the max wait time you would recommend waiting for this? I've heard good things about this attraction but have never been able to do it. I don't see showtimes listed online anywhere but I feel they wouldn't advertise those outside the parks either. Frankly didn't go into Lost Continent much on our last trip.
- Is Mythos still popular enough that a reservation is required? We'd likely go at the end of a day at IOA. Don't want to show up at 7:30 and have to wait and hour or 2. Not sure if they even take reservations but figured id ask.
- Anotjitos or Red Oven Pizza? We're fans of both cuisines, but between eating in the parks a few nights, a definite stop at Vivo and Cowfish and The Palm at Hard Rock, realizing our dinner options are slowly dwindling! Do people strongly recommend one over the other?
- Participating in Fear Factor- How early do you recommend heading over to casting? Is it difficult to get a spot in the show?
- Since the people I normally travel with don't enjoy the Simpsons, never really ate in there. Not there during HHN either so I'm not sure how vastly different the beer selection is. Any recommendations that aren't normally available during HHN? Also with Fast Food Boulevard, any food recommendations? I know this is basic fried food but I mean I'm sure there are stronger selections than others. Can you bring your food over into Moe's as well?
- NBC Media Center - Never done this, do I just show up and they have screenings available? This sounds cool honestly and since im doing a 10 day trip, I could easily see us doing this at least 2 of our days at USF. Especially if Bourne doesn't happen to be open just yet.
- Last, but arguably most important: Who Hash or Buff Chix Tots? Pizza Tots and Green Egg and Ham tots have already been decided on. Looking for reviews on the others.
Thanks in advance to anyone who bothers to help me with this. Not pressing questions, but I'm freezing here in Maine these last few days and have some time off work so I wanna think of my happy place. Thanks again y'all!
