Star Trek: the Experience

blueerica · 07-10-2008, 11:34 AM

Again, thanks to the Wil Wheaton blog...

It's closing.

Though I've seen and done it more times than probably necessary and wasn't planning on going any time soon, it's still a sad event.

That's a bummer. Only did it once. Loved the Borg one. The original one gave me a horrid headache.

We've been to it three times. But each time we just look at the gift shop and the restaurant and decide we're not interested enough to pay $1.3 million for the full experience.

Glad I'm heading to Vegas tonight.

I'm going to miss Quarks. I really loved the food and atmosphere.

Looks like I have no reason to visit the Hilton again.

Man, and I never did have a Warp Core Breach...

At least according to the article, Paramount is going to try to find a new home for the Experience.

I vote for SoCal. Then, I can have a Borg Sphere anytime I want.

I think near Hollywood and Highland would be ideal, and would probably draw the visitors needed.

Yep, I heard this last night. A bunch of my friends are planning to go before September 1 ... but I doubt I'll make that.

So me and zapp are going to hit it this weekend! Last Hurrah of Don't Live Long but Prosper.

This is a major disappointment for me.

I've been indoctrinating my kids on Star Trek. We're in the middle of season 3 of The Next Generation. They love it and we've been having a lot of fun watching it together. And with this year's big family vacation being at Walt Disney World, I was hoping to take them to Star Trek: The Experience sometime next year. There's no room in the budget to make an impromptu jump down there before Sept 1.

I hope a new home is found.

I heard about this a bit ago and was sad. When we went to Quark's right after we got married the four of us (me, B, and our witnesses) shared a Warp Core Breach. Loved the look of the drink -- dry ice or something, and a way cool glass -- but it tasted truly horrible, like gatorade. We didn't finish it. But we bought the glass, and I keep flower petals that B has given me in it.
