But isn't that kind of an "exclusive" thing for CB residents? Not really open to the public who are casually just in City Walk. :shrug:

It's small and a little out of the way. I could see something like Splitsville being popular in City Walk. I don't know that that would be the best location though.

I'd love to see Uni do something like DisneyQuest, but actually good. :lol: Could be something they bundle in with whatever ticket offerings they have once Volcano Bay opens, similar to Disney's "Water Parks & More".

What about some type of Dinner Show? Universal's take on The Hoop-Dee-Doo?

Or how about a Comedy Club/Comedy themed Restaurant. Food all day, drinks and stand-up at night?

What about the talk of importing the Wicked show from USJ? That would be a good start while they develop a new or rotating series of shows.

I've been to Cabana Bay specifically with the intention just to bowl. A friend and I ordered some drinks and some food and bowled nearly five games in an hour. It was great fun.

I'm not sure why everyone says this in response to a bowling proposal. Uni doesn't actively promote that elley, it's only 10 lanes, and it's only meant for resort guests. Sure if you show up they won't turn you away, but nobody outside of the wisest of fans know about it.

Because it would eat up their business? 2 Bowling places in 1 resort isn't exactly a necessity.

What business? The few superfans outside of resort guests that actually know it exists?

Yes, because only we know... :rolleyes:

It's not like people staying on-site don't get a full rundown or brochure of the amenities on site.....

It gets business. It may not be booming, but it ain't hurting.

It's a bowling alley. Bowling isn't really anything special. Sure it's fun, but a resort doesn't need 2 places to bowl.

Galaxy Bowl was packed the night we went, and it was by no means a peak time.

@Next Big Thing Where are you getting the impression that only resort guests go to the resorts? You've never resort hopped?

I just hope for something far more unique than a bowling alley...

Yes, you did, but you also said "What business?" Resort guests who pay to bowl contribute to Galaxy Bowl's business.

So then why question about the business? Are you trying to be contrarian on purpose or something? :lol:

Bowling = a lot of real estate, not a lot of revenue.

Yea. Considering CityWalk's lack of expansion areas, bowling would be a waste. For locals, there's no doubt lanes that are closer and cheaper, and for resort guests, they can go to Galaxy Bowl.

I would like to see a new concept from John Rivers (4Rivers, The Coop). Or maybe a Taste of Orlando with 4Rivers, Ravenous Pig, and Kress Chophouse.
