Jurassic Park: The Ride (Now Closed)

[Miss Betty Juice]

So I guess 30-45 minute wait in the summer?

More like 60-120 on average...

I've seen 30-45 earier in the day in summer. But I rode it opening day after a 3 hour wait so...yeah. It's been higher.

That's a long time to wait then.

Longest I've had to wait for this ride was 50 min on HHN. On a coupon day when they were knocking off 30 bucks off of admission.

If the line is over 30 minutes I just don't wait for it. That's at any theme park now. I'm a little spoiled I guess.

The beauty of my girlfriend being scared of big rides is the single riders line. I usually wait no longer than 15 mins in the busy season.

Almost nostalgic now that Stage 28 is in this video.

I also used the single riders line in 4 of my 5 rides in Jurassic Park the ride

I'm finding more and more funny tidbits about attractions in the Universal Studios Japan park. I will post them in topic related to the attractions.

Here's a funny one about Jurassic Park The Ride. On its 1st anniversary of the park, there was a special moment with president Sakata Akira and about 20 fans who were invited where the dino blew out a candle on a cake. See the small picture:

I think it's part of a ceremony to open the park for special guests or media or so.

I think he was referring to a line in The Lost World!

I don't mind waiting for this ride. I mean what else can you do in such a small park as USH.I have waited around 45 min. The only thing it really bothers me is the barely themed queue that really makes you feel the long wait. At least with Transformers you kind of forget. I have become more patient at waiting at lines. Going to Disneyland made me patient and not complain about a longer than 30 min wait at any park. But being an AP at USH gives  you the freedom to say "I think this is too long" and go somewhere else and give it a try later. The longest I have waited for a ride was Transformers in its super mega breakdown... We lasted around 1:30 hrs. I was with a first timer so that's why I ventured. Uni made sure we were comfy in our wait. The staff was great

I also like the Annual pass myself.

I don't mind waiting either. I just want them to fix the damn hydraulics/pneumatics! It's sad to see the ride poorly taken cared of. 

I love the Annual Pass in USH. 80 bucks is the best value for theme park entertainment(for now that is). I could never figure out why people think an AP at Disneyland is worth it. I only go to Disneyland once in a while. Maybe once a year. The rides there are just old. The Star Tours refurbishment was great, but until they come up with something awesome, my money will go to Universal.

Here are two issues with waiting too long that I have:

When the ride length is too short (feels like a rip off...like my first time on the Mummy)

When the ride is in a bad condition.

I think it's inevitable that Universal will eventually update the animatronics. I just wish it was sooner than later, especially to take advantage of Jurassic World.

I'm always looking for the right trick to hold on to that darn safety bar for the drop. The very first time I went on JP, I was about 9 or 10 years old and I was pretty dang small. After the drop, my stomach was hurled against the safety bar and I couldn't even breathe. Freaked me out for a while. 

Same here that always ends up happening to me i not suprised no one has died on that ride
