One more ride on Ministry before close. Posted wait time: 65. Actual wait time: 20. If you can risk it staying open for close, do not rope drop this attraction.

A day like this at Epic Universe will be impossible to come by once attendance ramps up. Outside of the medallion scam and the horrible decision at Ministry, this was a magical day. 5 minute waits everywhere. Mine Cart Madness sending empty vehicles and basically begging people

A nice surprise upon leaving the park: an opening day ticket. This was handled well and given out at closing after exit. Makes me a tiny bit less salty about the medallion fiasco.

Ministry is 60 minutes wait at 1PM, even with Mario Kart delayed. Tickets are still available for today. UO is finding out fast that they are more reliant on AP spending than the competition. Transient guest habits are hard to break. Will we see an Epic Annual Pass soon?

These 10PM hours have been great. Universal Orlando Resort should consider keeping this park open until 10 or 11 all summer to give everyone the ability to experience at least 1 hour in this park at night.

Because of weather in the area, there are currently 4 attractions open in Epic Universe, and one is the carousel. Monsters: Unchained is a walk on.

This is a reminder that Universal Orlando Resort sold out of opening day medallions BEFORE opening day - sold to media and influencers on 5/21. Now, they can be found on eBay for $1,000. Should opening day ticket holder have been given a chance to purchase an item that was advertised to

I got this cool commemorative coin with the Switch 2 at Best Buy! Which reminds me of that time Universal Orlando Resort advertised commemorative opening day coins for guests to purchase at Epic Universe, but sold them all to influencers instead.

As someone who lives next door and knows a few things about theme parks and attractions, one of my favorite little known facts about Monsters Unchained is that it’s actually a motion simulator. It may “feel” as if it’s actually moving, but it’s all simulation.

One of the benefits of being a Team Member is the ability to see great things early, like a haunted house based on WRESTLING. Here is my review of what I experienced in the wrestling house last night: I was pretty surprised at how well they nailed the feel and lore of the Wyatt
