Eh. None of them I would count as "classics".

Ghostbusters Spooktacular. There was something about that show that made me want to see it over and over again. I remember it being insanely campy, but very fun.

Long live Kong. I think it was one of the best rides ever a true engineering marvel , We got to ride it both lit up and dark .
but my wife may chose otherwise ,she has fond memories of Ghostbusters. She got picked to go up on stage as a ghostbuster and was the one that sprayed water on the crowd :)

I'll miss Donkey Meet and Greet......just kidding, I miss Island Skipper Tours as I never got to ride it. It had already closed by the time I went there in July of 2001.

Nickelodeon Studios for the simple fact that the tour was the main reason I went to Orlando but never actually went on it.

I'll tell the quick story as to why. I was a huge Nick fan in the 90s (who wasn't?) and after seeing "Kenan and Kel was recorded in front of a live studio audience at Nickelodeon Studios in Orlando at Universal Studios Florida" I wanted to go there and see a show live. My aunt did the research and found out that Disney was nearby. After being pushed back a few years thanks to me having to attend summer school :doh: we finally were able to take our first vacation in 2001. I planned on visiting Nick and then spending the rest of the trip in Disney because what kid doesn't want to go to Disney? I had no idea that Nick was located inside a theme park. I ended up going on every ride at Universal and Islands of Adventure that I could (I was only 9 at the time) and never once stepping foot inside Nick because I was too excited by the rest of the rides in the park. When we finally got to Disney, I was bored.

In all the years following, I just never bothered with going into Nickelodeon anymore and I sort of regret that. But hey, I had fun taking pictures of the "slime" fountain, which did annoy me when I saw it in person and I could tell it was just colored water.

Jaws/Kongfrontation/Ghostbusters. I miss Jaws already so I'm going with that but I know gringotts will be an awesome replacement so since the mummy is great fun I would say Ghostbusters just due to the terrible replacement we got,

Jaws, Kongfrontation, & Back to the Future. They where all amazing rides that made Universal Studios Florida great in the 90's. Now they are all gone due to demand for new crap. :saw:

Kong, mainly because of the sheer scale of the ride. As a 10 year-old kid, the New York theming felt pretty darn authentic, especially with the queue.

Well, if that's the case, then I guess I shouldn't feel ashamed for being completely terrified during my first ride-through! :look:

Back to the Future and Jaws. Loved Back to the Future as a kid. Jaws was neat too. Never did get on Kong so I can't say I miss it, wish I did thoguh (and Revenge of the Mummy is a good ride.)
