Universal Orlando Resort Misc Refurbs

I can't imagine the tents are for anything but some kind of private parties.

 

[ReelJustice]

There have been a few permits filed for these tents lately. None are meant to last very long.

 

[Teebin]

Imagine having a tent like one of these built in your yard... it amazes me how much money is blown on these mini projects. And they build these temp structures for hurricanes... that is amazing.

 

[Andy]

Yeah but is that there fault or county regulations?

Regulations. Otherwise the permit wouldn't be filed / approved.

It looks like they are already painting the fronts of the games. You can see blue and orange on the left ones. From @OrlandoInformer

not only were they paiting, but setting up the new lights to go with them... and it appeared "some" of the former amity ones were already installed just under tarps... FYI, there are no more midway games near fear factor...

Orlando Theme Park News reported the following news about the central hub.

First of all, the former American Express sign-up area has been completely removed from the central hub of Universal Orlando's huge parking lot

Took them long enough! I wonder if they're going to put something in that area.

im glad i have a premier ap valet parking = not being harassed about signing up for a credit card. also im a 24 year old that looks 12.

also pro tip to avoid being asked to get your picture taken as soon as you enter the gate walk past them alone then wait for your group to catch up.

Or just say no thanks

Or just say no thanks

Or tell them you got one yesterday..

 

[violarum]

Or you can actually help them do their job and not stand around awkwardly... I literally always do it, and even though I don't buy the photo, I at least help them meet their expected amount per day. Be nice and give them something to do as they stand around in the heat.

 

[Teebin]

Have they upped this to photopass style yet? They just give you a card?

Florida Thrills' newest update provides a great look at the work being done to the Shrek soundstage as well as the Simpsons midway games.

Haha, I always get a photo if I'm with my family, but they almost always ask me when I'm by myself. That's a little awkward...especially the Spiderman queue.

I just tell them "Sorry that is just too sad... party of one... no thanks."

 

[violarum]

Well, in those cases, that is a little sad, I must agree.
