Adam Chera's move to Icon Park, Alton, is reportedly not yet a fait accompli.
James BrayshawHOST
A fait accompli, he's called it.
James BrayshawHOST

Jon SelfGUEST
That's kind of my thought.
Jon SelfGUEST
If you have the opportunity, venturing if you're in the universal world venturing to icon park at any one of the restaurants there is probably a good option i mean none of them are like oh this is the best thing ever but it gives you a little more options to branch out um there's a focusing on universal there's the border grill which is a hole in the wall tex-mex place that's kind of near where the millers is yeah uh kind of that kirkman area that's a good option Universal side.
Jon SelfGUEST
I've been doing so much Disney typing today.
Jon SelfGUEST
I'm having trouble switching my head to Universal.
Matt RogersHOST
industry.
Matt RogersHOST
This reminds me of when we were talking about it just earlier with the drop tower at Icon Park.
Matt RogersHOST
I remember having to go into work that next day as a ride operator.
Matt RogersHOST
It was rough.
Brandon WileyHOST
I mean, I think this is it's tough when this happens, obviously, for the families involved.
Brandon WileyHOST
But, you know, at the same time, when something like this happens, you know, it's very similar to what happened at Icon Park a while back.
Brandon WileyHOST
And it wasn't even in this case, this is a Six Flags situation.
Brandon WileyHOST
Right.
Brandon WileyHOST
But with Icon Park, it wasn't even there.
Brandon WileyHOST
One of their own operated attractions, they leased the space, the land that the attraction was on.
Brandon WileyHOST
It was a separate operator.
Brandon WileyHOST
And Icon Park had to dig out for a long time to handle that particular issue.
Seth KuberskyHOST
We've been talking about this for quite a while.
Seth KuberskyHOST
And now the two-story Build-A-Bear Workshop at Icon Park will be open to the public on November 5th.
Carly CaramannaHOST
Yes, this is something we've been talking about, like you said, for a while.
Carly CaramannaHOST
This is huge.
Danielle HollanderGUEST
And then one of our resorts goes all out, Villatel.
Danielle HollanderGUEST
So they have whole areas, but you will see things, whether it's at Icon Park, whether it's, Throughout the restaurants and entertainment, particularly downtown, you'll see people going all out throughout the destination.
Danielle HollanderGUEST
So you can really plot your whole course for a whole week or a weekend of Halloween activities.
Randy SharmanHOST
Well, I guess that's the conundrum is there is so much to see and do that a week probably isn't going to do it.
AbiHOST
So even though we weren't staying there, and we did get to experience and have a look at some other accommodation so we looked at the sinesta es suites on international drive and that's
ZaraHOST
right opposite icon park isn't it yeah so that's right
AbiHOST
opposite yeah so it's up we actually left the cars there and walked across to icon park um so we did the sea life there at icon park um and we did madam two swords as well and i don't You guys probably know this, but I didn't know this, but Madam Two Swords, their displays that they have sort of tie into where they are in the world.
ZaraHOST
Do they? Yes, they do.
ZaraHOST
No, I didn't know that.
AbiHOST
Maybe it's a me and you.
AbiHOST
No, they do.
AbiHOST
So when you walk into the one on Icon Park, you are hitting the face with a pit bull on a yacht.
Fowzer JunaideenHOST
I enjoy pointing out these opportunities because sometimes visitors spend so much money on theme park admission that they overlook the entertainment available outside the parks.
Fowzer JunaideenHOST
Icon Park and International Drive Another place I recommend is Icon Park on International Drive.
Fowzer JunaideenHOST
One of its most recognizable attractions is the Orlando Eye, the enormous observation wheel that gives visitors spectacular views of the surrounding area.
Fowzer JunaideenHOST
Now, riding the Orlando Eye requires a ticket.
Fowzer JunaideenHOST
But you don't need a ticket simply to visit Icon Park.
Fowzer JunaideenHOST
You can walk around, enjoy the atmosphere, visit restaurants, or stop for an ice cream.
Fowzer JunaideenHOST
It's also a gathering place for locals, not just tourists.
Fowzer JunaideenHOST
And here's a little tip from my own experience.
Matt WalshHOST
Watch.

Christopher AlstonHOST
While best known for representing clients in conflicts involving racial justice, Crump's firm has represented several families in cases involving amusement park deaths in recent years.
Christopher AlstonHOST
That includes a $300 million verdict against Orlando's Icon Park.
Christopher AlstonHOST
When Crump spoke to WABE's Jim Burress, he established that he'd not been hired by the Georgia family at the time of the interview, but said this is what he looks out for in similar cases.
Ben CrumpSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
The biggest thing is the fact that you hear witnesses talking about the restraint was not clicking properly, in fact they did it several times.
