- Get set to amplify your sushi - Rock N Roll Sushi is ready to take the stage across Central Florida
We’re free. Free Fallin.’ Fallin’ into endless plates of sushi, get ready to amplify your sushi as Rock N Roll Sushi is coming to Florida, and will be taking to the stage in Central Florida first! Sushi and hibachi lovers are gonna rock Rock N Roll Sushi as the American-style sushi restaurant founded on great food, true love and rock n’ roll music, prepares to bring big, bold and loud flavors that are sure to leave everyone eager for an encore. Expect a one-of-a-kind dining environment with multiple TVs playing music videos and sushi rolls that are Rock N Roll themed! Founded in 2010 by husband-and-wife duo Lance and Gerri Mach Hallmark in Mobile, Alabama, Rock N Roll Sushi is the original American-style sushi restaurant, and is the only theme-restaurant in the world where local and loyal fans can experience the rock they love and the rolls they love with the ones they love. The menu is broken down by Opening Acts, Classics, Green Room, Headliners (with Raw Tracks), Back Stage Hibachi, Kids Rock and After Party, with Rock N Roll Sushi’s greatest hits – like Crispy Wontons, Punk Rock Roll, VIP Roll and Hibachi – stealing the show. From humble beginnings in a modest 1000-square-foot space tucked inside the Mobile Mall, RockN Roll Sushi has rapidly expanded to encompass more than 60 locations across the Southeastern U.S. in just a decade, and now they are taking to the stage in Florida, read on for the details!! Rock N Roll Sushi CEO Chris Kramolis has revealed that the company signed an area representative agreement (ARA) with Rock N Development owners Andrew and Terri Jessen, Craig and Dianne LeMieux, and John and Katerina Weissfisch to share their passion for killer sushi and hospitality with their local communities. With this deal, the new ownership group plans to open and develop 35 Rock N Roll Sushi locations throughout central and southwest Florida. The first locations are expected to debut in Tampa and Naples later this year, where a real estate search is underway. Rock N Development’s ARA spreads from West Palm Beach to the Daytona Beach and Orlando areas, and across to Tampa, Fort Myers and Naples as well. “We’ve wanted to grow our footprint within the great state of Florida for some time and feel we’ve found the ideal partners to do just that,” Kramolis said. “Each of them has succeeded before as multi-unit franchisees and they know the markets we’re entering first-hand. Rock N Roll Sushi offers a one-of-a-kind dining environment with multiple TVs playing music videos and sushirolls are Rock’n’roll-themed – and now we’ve got the perfect local promoters to bring in the crowds.” “We believe in the brand and everything about it, so we’re excited to help expand Rock N Roll Sushi across Florida with future franchisees,” Weissfisch said. Weissfisch is a former auto industry executive with experience as a multi-unit restaurant owner and operator of Tropical Smoothie Café and Island Wing Company. The LeMieuxs are former co-owners of 15 Tropical Smoothie Cafes in multiple states and served as area developers for the brand, overseeing more than 140 locations. Residents of Naples, the Jessens are former corporate executives who turned to franchising upon moving to Florida almost 20 years ago. They connected with Weissfisch and the LeMieuxs through Tropical Smoothie Café, twice winning the brand’s Area Developer of the Year award. The Jessens and LeMieuxs also own Rock N Roll Sushi locations in Arizona. “This is a fun, laid-back concept that appeals to all walks of life, so we know we have a hit on our hands as we expand in Florida,” said Andrew Jessen. “Terri and I are very excited to team up with seasoned and successful area developers like the LeMieuxs and seasoned full-service restaurant operators like the Weissfischs to build out the Rock N Roll Sushi brand here with other franchisees who share our passion for great sushi, hibachi and hospitality.” At Rock N Roll Sushi, fans enjoy food that’s deliciously twisted and made fresh for everyone. Everything about the American-style sushi restaurant, from its soundtrack to its soul, is pure rock ‘n roll – raw, inspired, amplified.

- With little fanfare, drop tower ride Falcon’s Fury has reopened at Busch Gardens Tampa Bay!
Falcon's Fury which has been closed for nearly a year, is today, Wednesday, April 12 up and running, (or dropping we should say!!) Yes!!! The great news from Busch Gardens Tampa Bay, is that drop tower ride Falcon's Fury is now open!!!!! The ride has been testing over the last week and then today, Falcon's Fury reopened with no prior announcements from Busch Gardens Tampa Bay. Once the ride was up and running earlier today, Busch Gardens announced on its social media channels that the parks popular drop tower, Falcon's Fury is now open! The park announced the opening with the following post on socials "Look who decided to drop on by. Falcon's Fury is officially back open and ready for the thrills!" Falcon's Fury is a drop tower ride that reaches a maximum height of 335 feet, making it North America's tallest free-standing drop tower. Riders experience about five seconds of free fall, reaching a speed of 60 miles per hour. The ride's name was chosen to invoke a falcon's ability to dive steeply at high speed to capture prey. The ride which opened on September 2, 2014, was closed in the immediate aftermath of the tragic accident on the Orlando Free Fall drop tower ride in March 2022 at ICON Park in Orlando, to conduct safety inspections, as similar rides throughout the country did the same. It should be pointed out that The Orlando Free Fall was an entirely different drop tower ride from Falcon's Fury, manufactured by a different ride manufacturer. Falcon's Fury reopened following the inspection, but then closed shortly after for unplanned maintenance, but has remained closed ever since. Busch Gardens revealed that they had been waiting on parts to repair the drop tower, and with the news that the ride is now open we can't wait to ride again, and again!!!
