The Official Grand Opening is
MAY 15, 2008
Universal and Matt Groening, creator of "The Simpsons" have teamed up to create a new attraction.
This adventure is described as a combination of thrill ride, dark ride and "live show". Guests will ride with Bart, Homer, Marge, Lisa and Maggie Simpson as they rocket through a fanciful amusement park dreamt up by "Krusty the Clown." The voices of the original actors will be featured in this much anticipated ride.
The Simpsons is TV's longest running series and will celebrate their 400th episode in May, 2007.
The Simpsons attraction is at the former site of "Back to the Future.
Height Requirement: 42 inches
This ride is very similar to Disney's Buzz Lightyear.
You ride in a six passenger car through a city that is infested with aliens. Each passenger has their own individual laser gun that you use to shoot the aliens to rack up points. You ride parallel to another car with the objective to see which car averages the most points. You find out your score at the end of the ride.
There is some heavy spinning at some points through ride. So anyone who is prone to motion sickness might find it difficult to go through. All in all this ride was very engaging, entertaining, and challenging.
Oh, and smile during the ride. They take your picture here too.
Note: Any child who meets the height requirements for the rides but is less than 48 inches must be accompanied by an adult who can assist the child to enter and exit the ride.
