NBA City Closed

chocolate manufacturer... are we basically saying this will be M&M's world?

No, it'll be a restaurant, but will use chocolate in its cooking. Max Brenner-ish, but a Universal concept

 

[Jon84]

Thank god it's not an M&Ms world, the most boring place ever!

Chocolate is actually a great taste enhancer for a lot of food types..very excited to see how this turns out

 

[IzzyB]

Thats how I read it, but I never knew that if it is the case.

On our first ever visit over there, we assumed you needed your Universal Ticket to get into City Walk as we were not told otherwise haha!

Interesting. We would happily eat at a restaurant if it meant we didn't have to pay our parking for the first visit when we get our AP.

Are you buying an AP that includes Valet?

Can you swing through the Hard Rock drop off and have someone run over to the kiosk and activate the AP?

Either of these will allow you to skip paying for a privilege that is included with the pass and I don't feel either is "gaming" the system any more than knowing you don't buy 1 day passes is.

No we no longer get the highest level pass. Never thought about using a drop off. That could work in the future. We have our pass that expires in October and I don't see us renewing it for awhile. We tend to not renew every year since we have smaller kids and therefore visit it less often. We just don't get as much use out of it.

FWIW, I was told it was to be some type of steakhouse. Person who told me is a Mgr. in a CW restaurant. I have no idea if its true, just putting it out there

Never bought the most expensive AP, but will this year.

Either way you can save that first $20.

New reports of WWE replacing NBA. Kinda a shocker, I was thinking it was the steam punk chocolate place.

AM2 News: Exclusive: WWE to open Hall of Fame in Orlando before Wrestlemania 33

 

[Disneyhead]

I would be disappointed. I loathe wrestling.

 

[IzzyB]

I will wait for more insider info before jumping on the are they crazy bandwagon.

 

[Disneyhead]

The press conference is at 11am today. My assignment desk is under the impression it is only about Wrestlemania 33 coming to the Citrus Bowl. But they could announce the HoF/Restaurant.

Since this rumor has been around for years, I wonder if stuff like the chocolate factory was intentional misinformation?

Edit: The Hall of Fame is also mentioned at the bottom of this article from 2/18/16

Update On WrestleMania 33 Location In 2017

 

[Parkscope Joe]

Bluntly the concept would have changed in the past month or this is a moon landing level of cover up. I don't buy it.

 

[Disneyhead]

Maybe the WWE HoF is going into DisneyQuest?

 

[Brian G.]

Every thing we've been told led to the Steampunkish chocolate being a reality, and have even seen some... things.

But with NBA City stalling for a few months, and then WM 33 rumors picking up for Orlando, I wondered if this was back on the cards.

 

[IzzyB]

Guess we will know more at 11 AM. I am really hoping it is not wrestling.

 

[RevFreako]

If it is indeed a physical Hall of Fame, I'll be pretty excited. I won't say I told you so, though.

 

[Teebin]

Wait, they're actually announcing something today? I am so out of touch on this stuff...
