Fat One’s Hot Dogs & Italian Ice at Universal CityWalk: Founded by *NSYNC member Joey Fatone and his manager Joe Mulvihill, Fat One’s Hot Dogs & Italian Ice is coming to Universal CityWalk, featuring a variety of creative, flavor-packed hot dogs, Italian ices and more for guests to enjoy. It will take the place of Hot Dog Hall of Fame, which will close in July to make way for the new venue.

I assume Richard Blaise has nothing to do with this and will have his own project? Curious if it ends up in CItyWalk or a hotel.

I'm sure it's unrelated but the press release also mentions Thunder Falls Terrace closing this Summer and transforming into "an all-new dining concept that will become the new signature full-service restaurant in Universal Islands of Adventure".

I can't imagine the switch over from Hot Dog HOF to Fat One's taking very long. Think this opens by HHN?

Hopefully the preopening testing goes better than at the Florida Mall.

RIP to the HOF. I’ll miss pretending I’m at a baseball game

Take care, Hot Dog Hall of Fame. You'll be missed.

I'd be surprised if this isn't open by HHN, if not sooner. How much really needs to change?

I’d say crazy to close this before HHN but I never see anyone in here either way

I would assume this should allow it to open up during HHN season?

Just spent the evening at CityWalk. It was Jamaican Independence Day. Never seen the place so slammed!

Every club was packed to the brim. Would’ve been nice to have Red Coconut Club open, even if it had no theme.

Overall a successful night for the entertainment team at CityWalk. People singing in Pat O’s, dancing at Rising Star and Marley’s. The streets packed with a DJ and stilt walkers. Busy all the way up until the 1am close

We absolutely love CityWalk, entertainment and restaurants. Sounds like that was a fun day, just like all times are at Marleys. Kind of a MarleyWalk.
