Inside Secret:
There is a basketball
court across from Michael's Restaurants, aka Louie's,
in that alley where the exit to the arcade is. If
you buy a Universal basketball you could play there,
until security comes and asks you to move along.
Inside Secret:
Twister has had 2 Disasters
that have caused the ride to delayed and changed.
Universal originally planned
to unveil "Twister" in March 1998; but
Mother Nature had a different idea. It was Monday,
Feb. 23, 1998 from 12am - 4am when the worst outbreak
of Tornadoes ever recorded "7" ripped
through parts of Central Florida killing 42 people.
Universal delayed the attraction's opening until
May in deference to victims. September 11, 2001
Attack on America caused the Twister House (Queue
Area) to have it's home number 911 changed to 11,
now 111.
Inside Secret:
Now
that Kongfrontation is no longer at Universal, they
did manage to sneak in a few references to the past
attraction at Revenge of The Mummy. In the queue,
keep your eyes pealed for a few bananas shattered
about. Also in the queue look for the 2 giant ape
hieroglyphs near the giant Anubis. On the table
before you hit the stairs there are gold coins featuring
Kong. When the ride starts there will be a sucked
dry tourist with a "Kong Rules" hat on.
In the "Treasure Room" on the left side
near the front of the room is a 3FT tall golden
Kong statue. |
