I was just sent a photo of what looks like Under the Sea's roof on fire - I am hearing it may have been caused by the fireworks. Is anyone there or does anyone have news on this?

Apparently fireworks fallout tonight has caused a grass fire on top of the little mermaid attraction.
An eyewitness is saying that it's on the gaston's tavern side.
Multiple people saying fantasyland is evac'd with west clock shuttles being rerouted to behind MSUSA.
Fire is out, last I heard.

I didn't know rocks could burn...Hopefully Ariel splashed some water on it with her tail.
Only the sides of the building are covered in rock work, most of the roof is exposed.

It seems The Little Mermaid has taken the 'Tiki Room' route. Does this fire mean that we get 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea back?

They should never have carved the Nautilus in the rockwork...

No kids, it's just a grass fire. Nothing serious according to anything I've been told by any of my people.

No. It's not a joke. I have multiple sources giving me this that have nothing to do with Twitter.

I meant, Epcot Explorer's post was a joke.

I hope there was no serious damage and I certainly hope no one was hurt, but immediately my sinister/humorous thoughts kicked in as I envisioned some 40-something man [not unlike myself] screaming down mainstreet "THE LITTLE MERMAID IS ON FIRE!! THE LITTLE MERMAID IS ON FIRE!!"
