Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit is closing. If you are familiar with the longstanding Universal Studios coaster, you may have mixed feelings about the change. You wouldn’t be alone. It’s been a giant red and yellow fixture on the skyline with its notable vertical lift and its secret playlist for more than a decade. Still, that playlist has changed over time, and the ride has also been criticized for its jerky movements and generally rough ride.
The roller coaster officially closes on August 18, which means August 17th is the last day to jump on, and some frequent parkgoers are definitely taking advantage. Others are certainly quite a bit less sad to see it go. Let's run down the reactions!
