Kongfrontation: The History of Universal's Most Bananas Ride

In 2002, Universal Studios Florida closed Kongfrontation. Its most spectacular opening day attraction, featuring some of the largest animatronics ever featured in a theme park ride. And a ride with a great deal of historical significance for Universal, in many ways the entire reason for their Florida expansion in the first place.
