Walking around the parks at night during the December OI event and looking at the lights and decorations. It was so quiet, and I just got to take everything in. 😊❤

Seeing the Mardi Gras parade for the first time and my first OI. Thank you for all your videos. They are very informative and help me enjoy the parks when I can't be there.

Riding atop Mardi Gras floats! What an amazing time!

Do you have any plans to visit them? Thank you so much for the support! It means a ton to us. Crazy that we hit over 5k!

[@WinterLady87]

​@fudge_factor My birthday's in February, so I'm thinking about booking Stella Nova for a long weekend. Can't wait to see it and an almost finished Epic Universe😁

[@ginad1182]

@@fudge_factor We are UOAPs but can only get to the parks twice a year. This year we’re going in March and September.

[@fudge_factor]

Oooo a fun Mardi Gras trip planned eh?

[@ginad1182]

@@fudge_factor Yep, can’t wait! Got our ride and dine passes 💜💛💚

[@fudge_factor]

Heck yeah!! That’s going to be fun!! Where did you choose to eat at?

[@lefttea]

11:48 Speaking of on-site hotels, have you priced them lately??!!! I'm glad i got my room for hhn couple months ago. Prices have gone up over $100 a night! :(

[@fudge_factor]

Have they? We haven’t looked recently. Even when we looked right after hhn they weren’t the cheapest. Even more now?

[@lefttea]

@@fudge_factor I booked 5 nights at aventura for sept, little less than $900. Now those same dates are $1500!

[@fudge_factor]

Oh mannnn!! That’s crazy! That’s pricey! One the prices will come down after the holiday season!

[@lefttea]

@@fudge_factor Hopefully, they will. I was looking at a room for mardi gras, wait, this can't be right. I'll keep checking. :) Thanks for the great work youse do.

[@fudge_factor]

Oooo definitely go to Mardi Gras if you can! It’s so fun!! Thank you for your support!! 🙏

[@richardvogel1195]

Good video guys. Wrapped up a great year

[@fudge_factor]

Thank you! Thank you for the continued support! It means a lot to us! Happy New Year!

[@jo.universalstateofmind]

It’s been a great yr and some first for me this yr! It was great experiencing HHN. It definitely wears you out lol. I don’t think I’ll be going to HHN next yr. Probably 2026. I still have to say Christmas is my favorite time of the year there. My favorite memories is always going to be meeting up with everyone and having so much fun. I was thinking about getting the annual photo pass! I wonder if it will work for Epic 😃

[@fudge_factor]

You have had quite the adventures this year! Tons of new experiences! What is your favorite memory from this year?

[@jo.universalstateofmind]

@ it has to be HHN! That was quite the experience!

[@fudge_factor]

And plenty more new experiences coming in 2025!

[@jo.universalstateofmind]

@ So many!!! 😃

[@fudge_factor]

🫶🤩

[@NickBrunet]

As much as I would LOVE to be at Epic Universe opening day I am going to wait for your content so I can navigate and get the best tips and tricks from you both! 😊

[@fudge_factor]

You already know it! if we get out to Hollywood this year you are going to need to show us around!

[@NickBrunet]

@ you know I’ve got you 💁🏻‍♂️

[@fudge_factor]

🎃😈

[@MommaStorz1121]

Great video guys! In your opinion is it worth getting the bottom tier annual pass if you plan on visiting universal twice? I plan on going once in October and again in December for 4 to 5 days each trip and if my math ks correct an annual pass might save some money

[@fudge_factor]

For that many days it usually makes sense to get an annual pass, considering the 2 park seasonal pass is just 425 dollars. Just be sure to double check the blockout dates on the annual passes and ensure they don't interfere with your plans. I know there are blockout dates in December with the Seasonal and Power annual passes and would hate for you to find out after spending the money on the pass! The link for the blockout dates is here: www.universalorlando.com/web/en/us/tickets-packages/annual-passes/blockout-dates

[@MommaStorz1121]

@fudge_factor thanks for your feedback appreciate it!

[@fudge_factor]

Absolutely!! Where are you thinking of staying when you go?

[@MommaStorz1121]

@fudge_factor hard rock in October for HHN and royal Pacific in December, we will have our daughter with us for her first trip to universal so we are excited for that!

[@fudge_factor]

Ooooo those are both great spots! Is your daughter excited?

[@metallicnole4514]

My worst 2024 moment at universal was earlier in the year when I went to islands of adventure to ride velocicoaster for the first time ever. I went there during early park admission and the ride broke down. I eventually was able to ride it in the afternoon but I waited 90 minutes.

[@fudge_factor]

Dang thats rough... TBH I was concerned you were going to say that you road velocicoaster behind a tall red head that puked and got sprayed by the backsplash 😅🤢

[@evennyperalta6455]

My worst moment of 2024 was when I walked over to the Crepes stand for my evening snack because I had been craving it and I always eat one right before I leave my trip. But the crepes stand closed right in front of my face as I approached the stand 😢. …. I teared up a bit!

[@fudge_factor]

Oh noooooo!! What is your go to crepe?

[@evennyperalta6455]

@@fudge_factor My go to crepe has to be the strawberry Hazelnut!

[@fudge_factor]
