I asked about those walls once and I found out that anything spray painted was put there by Univeral. Everything else was done by guests, but since Universal started it, they have no intention of cleaning them up. From the employee that I asked, they told me that this garfitti is what people come back for on the ride.
I'd be pretty angry if they did close up Kong. After MIB, that's my favorite ride!

I would be really disappointed if they closed King Kong its one of my favourite rides in Orlando, I have always thought that the universal cast members on this ride where as enthusiast as Disney Cast members and that adds to the atmosphere and fun. This time however the tram operator seemed bored and disinterested maybe they have been told the ride is to close.

I tend to go to Universal a lot with my annual pass, and I've found that most CM's do a good job on King Kong, except for this old guy. Whenever I've gotten him, he always seems like he got turned town to a higher job in the company and he really doens't want to be there. Maybe it's the same guy!

Probably to claen it up. Have you seen the state of the walls in there when you are queueing up!
Well that adds to the experience, the walls are supposed to be like that, its not like that is something they are trying to clean up.

well, we're staying offsite in a 6 bed villa which is only 3 miles from disney just off the 192 - I'm told that it's one of the nearest locations to disney and looking at the disney property map we're not that far from the all star movies/sports/music resorts
we're in orlando for 14 nights but we haven't decided how long we'll be in disney/universal etc for yet.

10 adults: ages from 25 to 68
1 six month old baby
not all the adults will be going on all the rides either so the baby will be well looked after!!

LOL
we will probably do 2 or 3 at universal and 1 at seaworld but i doubt we'll then spend all the remaining days at disney as we're gonna have an odd day or two relaxing - mind you one day could be at a water park (blizzard beach/typhoon lagoon).
