"Race Through New York Starring Jimmy Fallon" Is Now Open At Universal Orlando

[minnie2010]

We got a virtual timeslot of between 3.30 and 4.30. No queue to get into the actual theatre/attraction but once inside was told we had to wait around 30-40 minutes to get on the actual ride. You are allocated a colour card when you get into the actual building, but there were 3 colours scheduled to go in before us. The CM told us it took around 10-12 minutes to board each colour? sometimes longer. Needless to say we didn't hang around and left immediately. The videos around the waiting area were really stupid and so not funny

That said, the content itself was absurd to the extreme, it took me really by surprise just how silly the actual ride video was, even by Fallon's standards, but in that sense, it was a great experience, I laughed countless times and found the ride experience very pleasurable. Using an Express Pass, it was 6 minutes from entering the building to being in the final pre-ride room where you are rapped the safety instructions, allowing minimal time to see the exhibits, but no issue to me, I'm not at all versed on the Tonight Show's history. The whole day at USF was great on our trip, and RTNY did nothing to diminish it IMO - as entertaining as Twister was, I enjoyed this more for sure, despite my reservations I think it's a worthy replacement.

See more...

I would agree with all of this, our experience was very similar and I really enjoyed the ride too having gone in with low expectations .

Thank you for the footage Geoffa.
I think I'll go on it just for the New York scenery since we are visiting NY for the first time in October.
