Why? Springfield is going to be open MUCH sooner. They have plenty of time still before they need to announce Potter.

Gulp 'N' Blow would be slightly more recognizable than KFP, but it wouldn't offset the amount of guest complaints about the name, especially being so close to kidzone.

And you think Kentucky Fried PANDA wouldn't get complaints? You underestimate the power of the animal rights lunatics. They're the reason Jungle Cruise skippers don't shoot at hippos anymore.:lol:

Nice. I'm slightly surprised they're announcing this on its own.

If they want to have a variety of food items in the restaurant it would make sense to have KFP since Gulp N' Blow has the same food items as Krusty Burger, except the burgers aren't called Krusty Burgers.

To everyone that is concerned about complaints regarding the names of Simpsons food locations.........this isn't Disney!!!! The Simpsons have been on the tube for 25 years.....I think that everyone is pretty familiar with the sarcasm, wit and parody that the show is famous for. If people are that overly sensitive about this.........let them hang out 24/7 with the permanent smiling princesses down the road............

I understand it is not Disney, but families still go to Uni and Uni does not want to exclude them. In fact they are trying to include them more than ever. So I think Gulp n Blow would just be wrong on all accounts. KFP is fine, only PETA will have an issue with it and honestly, they probably already hate Simpsons and would hate the expansion no matter what. I don't think Uni cares about the extreme groups, they care more about the families.

My complaint is they better have variety of counter service food, because that is seriously lacking in studios unless you want a burger :)

Unless GNB is a place on the show that includes things that your dirty mind seems to be focused on........not sure what the problem is??? I hope that Uni/Comcast never gives into this "I'm so offended" world that we seem to be living in. Don't like it......go to Disney. They have plenty of wonderful meet n' greets I hear.

There is no way that someone could not see the blatantly sexual reference in the name Gulp n' Blow...it's in bad taste (bad pun)...KFP is more tame but still a little edgy

And they're doing it! Do you REALLY think that a name of food location taken directly from a famous cartoon is going to make people switch their trips to Disney??????

WE'RE not offended. But that doesn't mean somebody else wouldn't be. And come on, it's an obviously sexual pun. That's why it's funny.

The point being that Uni probably does not want such a blatantly sexual pun at the heart of their new expansion. Not because they are prudes, but because they don't want complaints.

I think if they were worried about complaints neither of them would be chosen.

I'm still amazed The Frying Dutchman isn't one of the facades.
