Not For Sale Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 And for that, we must go someplace that Bryan could never go. Find that place, and we will be there. That place is called Ripley's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milst1 Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 Your Ripley's was better than the one we visited in Blackpool. Nice report, especially the Bryan inclusion. I believe! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SharkTums Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 As much as I don't like the idea of four people that I like giving Holy Land money...I agree the resulting Photo TR could be epic enough to warrant a slight overlook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BarryH Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 ^It is. This year on free admission day, the park filled to capacity at around 9:30. People lined up as early as 7 am to get in free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Electerik Posted May 4, 2011 Author Share Posted May 4, 2011 Let's see what will happen when athetists visit the Holy Land Experience. Â Obviously, I don't want to give these people any money. On the other hand, I'm even less interested in going there (or, really, anywhere) on special free day. But I do want to see it--both from a completest standpoint, and out of morbid curiosity. Â If I am going to do it though, I want to make sure that it's epic. So the team-up idea seems like a good way to help justify it. Smisty and Bryan are on board, but no word from Adam yet.

Electerik Posted May 7, 2011 Author Share Posted May 7, 2011 (edited) [Edit: Unfortunately, the physical Hula Dog (or, as it was later know, "Kona Dog") building has closed. However, they now apparently have a food truck!? -Erik] Â When it comes to food, I think it's safe to say that I'm a bit more "Oddventurous" than Smisty. So I ended up going to this next place by myself.... Â Hula Dog Located on I-Drive, near Wet 'n Wild, beneath a giant billboard advertising McDonald's (natch), Hula Dog offers "authentic Hawaiian-style hot dogs." I've never actually been to Hawaii, so I'm in no position to judge their authenticity. But Hula Dog was opened about three months ago by a guy who was stationed in Hawaii and apparently really liked their hot dogs. Help me, magic surf board! How does this work?? Below this are more boring ingredients you can get if you prefer your hot dogs a bit less Hawaiian. But what fun would that be? Ta-da! The bread is very soft, and pretty much covers the entire dog. What you see here cost me about $7.50. If I have a complaint, it's that the hours are a bit unpredictable. (I can't stand when a place is closed between "lunch" and "dinner.") But I guess you have to kind of expect that when it's just a couple of guys bootstrapping a new business and trying to do everything themselves. And, in any case, the hot dogs are really good! I don't get it. Edited June 11, 2012 by Electerik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gisco Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 Yeah for Hula Dog!. I ate at one in Hawaii last year. The stuff you can put on them is a little odd but good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frozenflames Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 What exactly was on that hot dog? It looked somewhat decent. Anyway, Interesting find. I'm going to Universal over the summer, so maybe I'll have to check that place out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
