Wow, those are depressing!

Wow. The ad for HHN at IOA with the Caretaker gives me chills... It's hard to believe that I was in Elementary School when these pictures were taken...

 

[USO92]

Wow, those are depressing!

haha exactly my thought

I know USF had a studio tour some point in the 90s. Does anyone have pics or a video of it?

Man that was so terrible

 

[ChrisFL]

Compare that to what's at DHS now...

Why are those pictures depressing to you?

Because so many years have gone by and there's been so much change. I miss a lot of those attractions.

Overheard reviews of the Tram Tour at various times in the past:

Everything was so new that we were actually able to watch the paint dry. It was so cool.

Well, at least Greyhound isn't gonna be a threat.

The tram tours at the Magic Kingdom parking lot aren't as interesting as this is.

History:

Universal Studios has since replaced the Tram Tour with a more personalized experience. They call them ECVs.

I've always wanted to know what slime tasted like lol

I've always wanted to know what slime tasted like lol

Depends entirely on the day. When I tasted it (I was a kid who got slimed), it was yummy green apple.

 

[slappybob]

That sounds good I wonder what it takes to make it? lol

 

[King_K.]

It tasted just like pudding when I was slimed on an episode of What Would You Do back in 1993.

Here's the old recipe. I know they've changed it a bit since. The base was vanilla pudding, applesauce, oatmeal, and green food coloring.

 

[slappybob]

Thanks King_K. really appreciate it :thumbs: I'll have to try it one day lol

I was also picked to be slimed at the Game Lab, and I remember it being a green apple taste as well. I was also surprised that, for me, the slime was very warm, which was the opposite of what I thought it would feel like!
