In a somewhat predictible turn of events at this stage in the game, much like the lifthill's track, the banner installed earlier today was already removed, a period of speculation followed at both Louis Pizza and fanboy sites the internet over and then a new banner was put up.

If past precident is accurate, this either means three more months of cycling or six more weeks of winter. I've lost track. :shrug:

Ok, thanks for the picture. I don't know, when I was down at Universal today the manager at Loui's Piza told me that she was riding the ride when she got on break.

And The Manager At Louis Pizza told me metal, not fiberglass. PM me if you don't know what I'm talking about. If you do, say nothing.

In lieu of the original banner announcing a "Spring" opening (and since we are in late summer) could this not mean they are perhaps getting closer?!!!:yum:

So being caught posting to OU is the internet equivalent of getting caught looking at porn to you?

Well, maybe I get a little aroused while discussing Orlando theme parks. It's perfectly natural. :look:

It frustrated me to no end that they took it down the same day they put it up. But it doesn't suprise me one bit.

It's possible that it will not. Time of day that they cycle it has nothing to do with how close they are to opening. Not in the least bit. There are things that need to be resolved before opening, and they are not things you can *see* by watching it cycle.

Until this ride is up to spec and up to capacity, Universal won't open it, and I'll be the first to stand up and give them applause for handling this exactly the way I would have hoped they would when it comes to that matter. :happy:
