This was a major selling point for us to buy UOAP this year that will definitely weigh on whether we renew them or not in years to come because how do we know this won’t eventually affect other rides? First not including Epic, now taking away perks of being a pass holder.
@UniversalORL - please tell me that what I’m hearing about Hagrid’s being removed from express pass isn’t true. That’s literally one of the reasons we decided to be a UOAP. #sayitaintso
Luck of the Irish ☘️
Notre Dame had Jeremiyah Love and Jadarian Price become the first two RBs taken in Round 1, the first time since the Common Draft Era both came from the same school.
Nick Saban: “They always tell me how hard I was to work for. We never had a meeting at 6:45 (a.m.) in the middle of the draft, OK? C’mon.”
Marcus Freeman: “We got class. We got to go to class. I got to get them out of there so they can go to class.”
The Notre Dame difference.
You absolutely MUST read this folks. This is a blog that former Notre Dame TE Oscar McBride wrote about Lou Holtz. Read it folks! Tremendous stuff, great insight into what made Coach Holtz special #GoIrish

Notre Dame in the last 5 years:
-National Championship Game
-Four 10+ win seasons
-Everyone wants their Head Coach when a NFL or College HC Job opens up
Notre Dame is relevant.
A lot of people have asked for a comprehensive preparedness list for the winter storm.
Feel free to bookmark this or share with friends, stay safe out there:
⛽️ Gas up every car (and top off any cans if you’ve got them)
💵 Pull cash — assume card readers go down
🔋 Charge everything: phones, battery packs, laptops, tool batteries
🔌 Make one “charging pile” with all cords so nobody’s hunting
🔦 Headlamp for every adult + flashlight for every kid
🏮 Lanterns for the main rooms (no candles… kids + candles = nope)
🔋 Fresh batteries in a big ziplock — label it
🏠 Pick ONE “warm room” right now (small room, easiest to heat)
🚪 Shut doors to the rest of the house
🧣 Blankets over windows at night + towels at the bottom of doors
🛏️ Drag mattresses/pads in there if you need to
🧤 Lay out clothes like it’s ski season: base layer + hoodie + coat + hat + thick socks
👟 Slippers/shoes indoors — cold floors will wreck you
🧦 Dry clothes only — damp socks = change them immediately
⚠️ Generator = OUTSIDE only (not garage, not “cracked door,” OUTSIDE)
🚨 CO alarms working on every floor, especially near bedrooms
🔌 Use outdoor-rated extension cords only — don’t run cords under rugs
🙅♂️ Don’t do any “dryer plug” stuff — not worth dying for
⛽️ Fuel stays OUTSIDE the house
✅ If you’re using a heater: only indoor-rated
🔥 Keep it away from blankets/curtains/kids
🌬️ Crack a window just a tiny bit
😴🚫 Never sleep with a flame heater on
💧 Water: plan 1 gallon per person per day minimum
🪣 Fill bathtub/buckets for flushing/washing
🚱 On a well? Assume ZERO water once power is out
🔧 Find the main water shutoff now (don’t wait)
🚰 When it’s brutally cold: let faucets drip (if water’s still on)
🧊 Open sink cabinets on outside walls

❄️ Fridge/freezer: open it as little as possible
✅ Eat fridge first, then freezer, then pantry
💊 Refill prescriptions

⚡️ CPAP/nebulizer/anything critical: have a power plan

🚨🔥 CO alarms good, heater clear, cords not hot
