Florida's Summer Is Sunny Skies With Chance Of Roller Coaster Delays

August 6, 2009 at 12:09 PM | by kjb | 1 Comment

We’ve been trying to plan a trip to check out Universal Studios' latest coaster at their Florida park for a while, but constant delays have left us less than thrilled. The summer is definitely approaching its end and we haven’t heard too much about this new roller coaster’s grand opening. Originally the thing was supposed to be thrilling folks around the Memorial Day weekend, but maybe Labor Day will be when we can welcome it into the world.

Apparently there’s been some issues with the lift, and the cars haven’t been making it all the way through the track. We love a little thrill, but we’d rather not be stuck upside down on a lift hill—so we say keep up the tests!

For now, tourists will continue to be disappointed, but keep on hoping as there are even more new rides in store, like SeaWorld’s newest coaster. The Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit, which has been testing day and night, and the latest rumor has it set to open during the middle of this month. As always, we'll keep you fellow coaster enthusiasts updated.

    Maybe, Florida's summer sky encouraged Senator Mel to go back to his home in Florida with his family. The lone Hispanic Senator is leaving the Senate, as it has been announced that Mel Martinez resigns. Mel Martinez resigns amidst a storm of controversy, as he is one of only 9 Republican senators that voted for Sonia Sotomayor to take the Supreme Court Bench. The confirmation of Sotomayor has been fraught with controversy, and many accusations of Republican racism. (It wasn't the first, it won't be the last - there's a reason for that.) Florida Governor (Martinez' home state) Charlie Crist hasn't announced a replacement yet, but Florida State Senator Marco Rubio is considered to be a front runner. Mel Martinez resigns, and now they'll need to put cash advances into finding a replacement.
