I wouldn’t go that far but it’s shocking how quickly Universal has gone from an Orlando afterthought, to worthy of adding a day to a WDW vacation, to worthy of a couple days of an Orlando vacation, to the primary reason many now go to Orlando.
I think they still have a ways to go to catch Disney but if Universal and Disney both continue on their current paths it’s possible Universal could overtake Disney as theme park king in our lifetime, something I’d have thought impossible prior to HP and their massive increase in quality ever since then.
