Not King Kong!

June 1, 2008 / Posted by: Michael K

Universal Studios is currently on fire and LAist reports that the King Kong ride has been destroyed. NOOOO!!! I lost my virginity on that ride. Not really, but it would have been really sad if I did. The fire also completely murdered the New York Street, Courthouse Square and Hill Valley. The video vault is on fire and the plastic from the video archives containers is what’s causing that nasty ass black smoke.

The fire started sometime between 4:30-4:45 this morning. TMZ reports that there’s no reports of boo boos and fire hos are currently trying to figure out how this shit started.

The MTV Movie Awards is set to take place at Universal today. The fire has not affected that shit and Marc Malkin reports that the awards show will go on as planned.
