Source: Our analysis of the creator's lived experience, based on what they said in this video.
Creator's Key Takeaways
We're not sponsored by Universal. We paid for our own tickets.
We rode everything we wanted to. Uh only a couple rides we missed and then we rode three rides twice.
It's been a great day. Pretty much everything that we wanted to do except Donkey Kong.
I would be upset if I had paid for express which we did consider.
