Atlanta Family Banned From Universal Studios

Guest Cursed At Child For Screaming On Ride

 

POSTED: 5:10 pm EDT August 11, 2009

 

ATLANTA -- A metro Atlanta family has been banned from Universal Studios Orlando for a year after a verbal run in with a fellow guest.

 

The family said they got kicked out of the park after that guest cursed at their young daughter for screaming too loudly on one of the park's most popular rides.

 

"This is the actual woman who had the audacity to turn around to my 7-year-old child and say, "Did you really have to scream that {expletive} loud,'" said Cassandra Nix.

 

Nix and three of her children, including 7-year-old Ariyon, planned to spend all day Sunday at Universal before the first day of school Monday.

 

But their first ride, The Simpsons ride, turned out to be their last.

 

Nix said at the end of the ride a woman starting cursing at Ariyon for screaming too loudly.

 

"She insisted on, 'Oh she's a spoiled brat. She's an {expletive} brat.' Oh it was horrible," said Nix.

 

Nix asked park security to call Orlando police to file a formal complaint against the woman.

 

When police arrived, she was stunned to receive a trespassing violation and kicked out of the park for a year.

 

"It says you are to stay off our properties all our properties or be arrested and we were actually escorted out by security," said Nix.

 

Nix said Ariyon is scarred, thinking this was all her fault for having fun on a ride.

 

"It was so fun," said Ariyon. "Did you scream a little bit," asked CBS Atlanta's Danielle Knox. "Yes ma'am," said Ariyon.

 

Nix had purchased a season pass to Universal Orlando, but now, with Ariyon's 8th birthday next month, they said they will be going to Disney World.

 

CBS Atlanta News contacted Universal Studios in Orlando several times today.

 

We were told someone would get back to us to clarify their policy on trespassing and why Nix was kicked out.

 

Nix has filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau.

 

To me, I really think that is a stupid way of banning a family for a year at Universal just because of screaming on a ride...

I read a little bit more about this, and the family that got kicked out are not telling the whole story. Apparently they got abusive to the people who complained as well as to the ride staff.

 

 

That does not surprise me since most people I met from Georgia are nasty.
