Hello board, it's been a while since I posted. But I posted back in Feb when the ride was first being shut down concerned how long it was going to be shut down. This was back on page 27 of this thread. Wow has it been expanded on it the past month. But anyways the reason why I posted is I am going to Universal for the very first time in March 10th. It has been my plans since late January. And I really want to experience all the iconic rides out of universal and from what I have heard, Spiderman is definately up there and is a very unique and amazing experience. So I was very sad to hear they shut it down indefinately until sometime in March. I just knew they weren't going to open it until late March so I was going to miss this iconic bit of Universal theme parks. So thats where my post on page 27 comes into play where I asked you guys the board of when you thought it might open based on info. THe answers I got was a 50/50 chance that it would be open by then and to hope for the best. Well I am just posting to let the ppl who remember me know, that 50/ 50 coin toss was in my favor! Just found out about the March 8th reopening date. Wow I am so stoked. Talk about cutting it close. Only 2 days from when I am going to be there lol.
This is great news for me. Not only will I be able to experience this ride for the first time instead of it being shut down while I am there but I will also be one of the first people to experience it in its HD re imagining. To finally see what this ride was meant to be like all along if it was not for 1999's limited visual technology. So thank you to the board members that rooted for this to happen. I will be sure to tell you guys about my experience with the ride when I get back.

But P.S. Does anyone know if any attractions are scheduled to be shut down at either park (Universal or Islands of Adventure) during March 10th through March 11th 2012? Especially the big rides like the Hulk, Harry potter, and Dragon Challenge? If anyone has some information on this, I would appreciate it. I am hoping that everything will be open while I am there lol.
