Time for The Simpsons Ride... but why is the line so far out into the walkway?!?

<img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v236/NemoRocks/DSC02321.jpg">
Thankfully it's only a 20 minute wait... much better than the 150 min. line I got out of on Sunday! (originally posted as 60 min., it stopped moving about 15 min. into the wait and when I got out of the line it was 150 :eek: )

<img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v236/NemoRocks/DSC02322.jpg">
The line started out here because they weren't using tent queue and part of the regular one for some reason.

<img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v236/NemoRocks/DSC02326.jpg">
This queue is gonna be packed in a few weeks...

They added a wall to keep the Express line out of view not too long ago.

Let me just say that the third level sucks...

<img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v236/NemoRocks/DSC02331.jpg">
The good doctor was out for photos with the DeLorean.

<img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v236/NemoRocks/DSC02332.jpg">
Do they seriously have to put the same ad everywhere? Why can't we get some different ones? :lol:

Markers are up for Rockit in the BMG courtyard.

This is a nice, quiet area... sucks that a steel monster will be taking it over soon. :lol:

Velvet Sky was taking on ODB in a Knockouts Street Fight... was pretty crazy. They went into the crowd and fought down my row (1st row, middle section of the bleachers). Velvet fell down right in front of me and ODB took the drink that belonged to the guy next to me and poured it everywhere... my shoes and parts of my shorts got soaked, in addition to our seats. :lol:

<img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v236/NemoRocks/DSC02380.jpg">
After the match, Gail Kim & Roxxi Laveaux came to help out ODB against the Beautiful People.

<img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v236/NemoRocks/DSC02392.jpg">
There was a five-man X-Division King of the Mountain Match between Jimmy Rave, Kaz, Curry Man, "Hotshot" Johnny Devine and Chris Sabin. The winner would receive a World Title shot on the iMPACT! after Slammiversary.

Nice pictures! I haven't been to IOA in a little while and I'm amazed at how fast the HP stuff is growing! I guess I shouldn't be because Universal always builds so quickly.

Thanks for the update! I haven't been able to go to Uni since last September. I probably won't make it back until after HP opens, so keep the updates coming!
