Comcast Kills Dragons to Go to War with Disney World's Falcon
Comcast's (NASDAQ: CMCSA) Universal Orlando ran a pair of roller coasters for the last time last night. Dragon Challenge -- billed as a single attraction at the resort's Islands of Adventure theme park but actually two distinct coaster experiences -- closed on Labor Day. The two tracks will be leveled, clearing the way for a more family friendly Harry Potter-themed attraction that is set to open in 2019.
A Hogwarts Express train ride away at the resort's Universal Studios Florida, Comcast has already announced that the Halloween Horror Nights multi-week event that kicks off later this month will be the farewell tour of the Bill & Ted's Excellent Halloween Adventure show. The campy experience has been part of the fright fest for the past 25 years. The hot rumor is that the show is coming to an end because the theater that hosts the attraction is the site of another Potter-themed ride that will open in 2019 or 2020.
