Hello Guys!

I just need a little clarification on the carnival games at Universal Studios Orlando.

May I ask if the Simpsons Carnival games are still available? I am looking for the basketball game (free throw 3 shots game - from 15 feet away).

Also, what other carnival games are available?

Thank you guys!

God bless the "Ignore" button.
This isn't a complete list, I'm sure, but there's a hammer tower, a whack-a-mole, a steeple chase, a milk can... I KNOW there are more, but...
Either way, they're actually pretty impressively themed. Normally I don't care for carnival games in theme parks (no, not even you, Jurassic Park), but these legitimately add to the theming of the area.

That hoop is a lot smaller than a regulation basket. Basically you have to be perfect for the ball to fit in the hoops. Underhand is the best way to go since you get a better angle and a lot more arc. Shooting there traditional way is vey hard because of the small rim unless you have an extreme rainbow type shot.

This also holds true for throwing a softball into a wicker basket. On that one you go underhand and add spin to have the ball bounce off the inner side of the basket like hooting a layup
