Universal Studios burns

A major fire broke out yesterday mornings at the Universal Studios back lot destroying several buildings: the King Kong attraction, a vault containing over 40,000 videos, and the iconic courthouse square from the movie Back to the Future. The flames were finally put out with the help of almost 500 firefighters.

As they say in show business “The show must go on” and on it will, with Universal Studios saying they will “resume its normal business hours Monday at 10 a.m., when all rides and attractions, including the studio tour, would be operating.” Also added for Monday opening is the aroma of burning movie history.
