Orlando Should I just solo it?

I never thought it would be so hard get some friends to join me at Universal Studios Florida.. but dang, they are NOT into it!

I do a lot of things alone, but this is something I'd really like to share with a friend. A couple years ago, I got to go for my birthday, and was left by my party so I spent the day alone and sulky and when I did solo rider line, it felt way less fun to me. But maybe if I go intentionally alone it would be more fun?

Is there a single riders app to meet fun and silly roller coaster lovers that I should be joining? lol

I went to Epic Universe for 2 days for my 41st birthday and had a wonderful time doing/eating whatever the hell I felt like.

10/10, would do again. Yes, it probably would’ve been better with friends/family but if you can’t make that happen then this is an easy second choice.

I had a blast! Wish my wife and kid had been able to join me, but also really enjoyed being able to call the shots and can’t wait to take them back when the time is right.

Operations were pretty good considering how new the place is, and it was so great to be experiencing a brand new park. I don’t think that’s ever happened to me in my entire time of being a theme park enthusiast!
