Updates! What's New at Islands of Adventure? | Surprising Closures

[@thundercat8601]

Time to reveal the truth: Rick actually hurt his foot RUNNING to the Fast and the Furious ride. He just HAD to have front row!

[@IntaminFanGRLPowerCoasters]

My Fast and Furious ride will be worth running to, when it opens. Hollywood Drift Forever!

[@fourlittlebirds6166]

That’s right!!! Now we all know his dark secret. 😂

[@deborahrosbotham7953]

Good to know the UOAP lounge will be open from March/April. As passholders travelling from Ireland we enjoy a break in the lounge. Our next visit is May and then September.

[@georges1757]

Collapsible cups the best tip ever and I Thanked you in December when I was there, i now use them in every park we go to Thanks again

[@ltp9019]

A 'raptor bite' is *definitely* a better story than the actual, mundane version. :D

[@cliodhnamalone7493]

agreed

[@Jushwa]

Loved Poseidon’s Fury when I was there a couple weeks ago, such a cool show experience

[@cliodhnamalone7493]

agreed

[@JohnWojt]

Gilligan hat sounds cooler... plus it makes the youngsters go 'whaaaat?'

[@nickellfrancis8522]

That good rix glad you’re foot is feeling better

[@dandicristina1389]

That gumbo and jambalaya looks amazing I am going this weekend

[@Steven-zf7yp]

Thank you for the great updates, Rick. Hope your foot is feeling better

[@cliodhnamalone7493]

same x

[@monarchclark]

Mmm that Mardi Gras Grub looks good ⚜️⚜️⚜️

[@UncleIanYorkshire]

Nice to see an update for IOA.

[@justinpatrick7899]

Just watched the livestream and now I'm here!

[@kittykathy9532]

Ohhhh I LOOOOVE that Mardi Gras purse!🎉

[@cliodhnamalone7493]

i need !!

[@Swilson3503]

@rixflix my family was the ones who you gave the king cake to. Thank you very much! It was very nice meeting you 😊

[@maldonadoruthie]

Thanks for the update hope your foot feels better ❤

[@jakestewart21]

Why do they have to close the hagrids ride if the only thing they are working on is one part of the queue 😩 just let ppl go around it

[@unicornrainbowpoop3779]

It’s probably for maintenance

[@jakestewart21]

@@unicornrainbowpoop3779 well i know they are fixing the queue cuz of the hurricane but i believe thats the only thing they are fixing. The ride is fine, it is just part of the outdoor queue that needs some fixing. Seems easy to just put some walls up and let ppl walk around it

[@unicornrainbowpoop3779]

@@jakestewart21 Yeah

[@TonyM-zi9rq]

My daughter is coming to visit next week and have 4-days at Universal, I'm peeved that Popeye's is closed. I was finally going to get her on it with no poncho!

[@angelrosec]

I'm sad the tuk tuk taxi is gone!!! Was hoping to get more photo ops with it in April. 😞

[@TMMS-13]

Beard in the trees is a Mardi Gras tradition! The king cake looks traditional, but we don't cut the outside. The beignets don't look right.

[@DrSaldo]

“Limp my way to Hogsmeade” love it 😂👌🏻 Wishing you a fast recovery. Rick!

[@cliodhnamalone7493]

what happened his foot

[@rolandvila3802]

Rick my wife and I had an idea for you, since you have a boot on why don’t you do a video on how to do wheelchair rentals, and how to navigate the park. I don’t know if you have done this before but if you have please disregard this message. Lol we love your channel by the way. We are both local and anual pass holder for most of the parks so we appreciate all the videos.

[@fourlittlebirds6166]

I agree. He shouldn’t miss any opportunities!

[@JillyFromPhilly97]

Thank you for the great updates, Rick. I am not sure how my kids are going to take the bad news about the mailbox. They loved taking our annual family photo there and it is ironically one of the fews things my whole family loved to do and be together around (12 annual photos)…..somehow that mailbox was the glue that kept my family together for our annual Universal trip…its all about the smalls things I will have to be strategic on how I break the news to my son especially…Timing is everything like they say in this crazy world we live in

[@laurendaley2503]

Something you could do is still take your photo at the mailbox spot. One regular and one 'distraught' one about where is our mailbox 🤣

[@stevenlisten]

I’m going there one day

[@cliodhnamalone7493]

i notice the camera always shakes when you enter jurassic park

[@thedude1234561]

What was the incident with the beads you were talking about?

[@ItsGibsy]

I really enjoy the vibe of Mardi Gras... but I'm a picky eater, which is making my life very difficult for enjoying the festivities considering a lot of it is Sea Food which I absolutely cannot handle. Lol

[@deborahrosbotham7953]

Totally with you Gibsy. I'm allergic to peppers and find it very difficult to get food without it in the parks at festival special food booths.

[@ItsGibsy]

@@deborahrosbotham7953 Sometimes, depending on the booth and the food, they can make special orders for you, but I'm not entirely sure how much I'd bet my health on that considering it's likely intermingled with the rest of the food, and could easily have what you're allergic to on it. Still though, something to consider.

[@victoriabrasser4976]

Thank you for being so dedicated...take care of your foot!

[@cliodhnamalone7493]

what happened his foot?

[@jenniferjohnson2108]

Coming to the November meetup I hope. What type of wait times should be expected for Hagrids ? And yes, the collapsible cups are the best! Thank you for the tip!

[@tigerman4546]

30-45 mins is what I saw during the February meet up! My tip is to join the line an hour or so before the meet up so you don't lose time for the after hours. Also great if you are waiting for the food to start.

[@jenniferjohnson2108]

@@tigerman4546 That is great, thank you for the reply and the tip!

[@andrewstashak9010]

hey RIX, are you going to be at universal during April 1- April 5

[@cliodhnamalone7493]

[@captaindaddiohead1650]

[@cliodhnamalone7493]

was wondering about the dogs lol

[@colinholder5438]

12:25 🤔 I say go with your own SFX

[@kchez110]

Glad to hear you’re feeling better. FYI I’ve kept the paper maps as souvenirs and my children used them as posters to hang on their bedroom walls.

[@cliodhnamalone7493]

thats cool

[@susanschmitz5694]

Yes, the king cake I had last year was too hard! Not worth it, won’t be getting one this year!

[@jeffjohnson7536]

What was the incident that happened?

What was the incident at the tree?

When is the next update video?

[@cliodhnamalone7493]

love this length of video

[@mzfyt1031]

I’m going you guess the new prize is maybe a platypus?…

[@snowboarder4700]

I would wanna get the shadow plush. I ams still annoyed at how much of a disservice they’ve done to his character. He went from being this 3 dimensional character with a tragic backstory, to them making him this one dimensional piece of crap who doesn’t care about anyone but himself. 😢 i wish they would bring back the original shadow. I have not gotten any of the new games with shadow in them because they have shown the same 1 dimensional edge lord version which is no his characterization what so ever! 😡

[@cliodhnamalone7493]

where was nicky today x
