But selling alcohol in a line isn't going to increase that chance!
They sell in line at HHN.......and folks go on rides there too........makes them a whole lot of money too.......
Sorry, your idea of what makes sense doesn't to me. You object to alcohol being sold in line......I see nothing wrong with it......I can certainly have a cocktail, wine, or a beer and not throw up......as do most if not everyone I know.
As stated above motion sickness is a separate thing.
I'll leave it at that.
If I slowly drink a glass of cider I know I would survive a ride, like you said most people probably can. However, I'm sure if I down a couple within a couple of minutes and immediately go on one that might be a different case. It's about age, experience, and it's about control and some people do not have it, nor do not think about it. It's also about knowing your crowd. HHN is aimed towards adults, hence alcohol being prominent in the parks at that time and also the waits can be brutal. You might need a couple if you're waiting that long to amuse yourself.
And just to clarify, I do not object it. There's a difference between objection and seeing it as a potential problem, or understanding why Universal may not include alcohol in a queue. If Universal tomorrow decided to include a bar in the JF queue, I wouldn't mind it at all. They can go for it.
There is already a potential case of motion sickness and yes, it's based on the individual. But once again, it can technically be a contributing factor, as well as food can make one ill in general, as you just stated. Even without the ride element there could be a problem.
The point I am trying to make is just, because you do not have a problem, or I don't have a problem, doesn't mean
someone else can have a problem. You have to consider
all the potential conditions and elements. Hence why they put a ton of warnings and signs before you enter rides, as well as in the queue. I have high blood pressure and still go onto rides, with and sometimes without my medication. I never had an issue, but someone else can and other people have. I read it in incident reports on other theme parks. It's about what can happen to innocent person -- a guest. Hence why there are so many warning signs, procedures, and instructions for when we enter a ride vehicle.
Can they put alcohol in the JF queue? Yes. Would plenty of people be fine after a drink and going on a ride? Yes. But can someone potentially not be able to handle it? Yes.
I would just shrug if Universal tomorrow put a bar into the JF queue. They'd be making more money which is good. Just purely stating the what ifs is all.
