Hello all! Here are some much belated pictures from the final evening at the Adventurers Club on September 27th, 2008. Once again, please excuse the crappy photography. My friend and I arrived in line at about 3-4PM with about 130 or so people in front of us. Throughout the afternoon, we saw several of the performers pass by and say hello to us, but we weren't quick enough with the camera.

There were several well-dressed fans that evening:

Later on as it got close to opening, several of the permanent members came out to say hi to people, including the long thought dead Sutter Bestwick:

I remember reading in another thread that someone was curious about the references to the Adventurers Club in the Jungle Cruise queue, so here are some pics:

The references are indeed gone off of the FastPass machines, unfortunately, but I do remember seeing them there, myself.

Last set in just a minute...

Thanks for the pics...bittersweet, really, as I have such great memories of the place and will definitely miss it.

I mailed my letters, and I'll be crossing my fingers.

Thanks again :)
 
I remember seeing you guys there, we were practically on top of one another going into the final hoopla, got scary there for a couple of minutes....but it was worth it....and your friend is cute :)
