Epcot 40 Fan Meet-Up

[TheEPCOTHistorian]

Yep sorry to say. There really isn't anything happening at all beyond the merchandise and food. It is a sales event, and nothing more.

That's what you get when a company is so misguided they won't even celebrate the history of a park they're dumping money into "re-imagining". This isn't even an issue with a single person. Throw the entire company away and start over. Its infected with a cancer that's spreading. It's funny, they're willing to run EPCOT Forever to retain some sort of revenue while their current trash show has to be taken apart. When there's money involved, stories change. Incredibly disrespectful and disgusting.

It's really disappointing and that's putting it lightly. If they didn't care about MK then they aren't going to care about Epcot. The fans are going to carry this event.

If someone can't make it to the Imagination Gardens at 10 am but wants to say hello, will there be any active status updates about where the group plans to be for, say, lunchtime and Harm?

 

[TheEPCOTHistorian]

Absolutely,

If someone can't make it to the Imagination Gardens at 10 am but wants to say hello, will there be any active status updates about where the group plans to be for, say, lunchtime and Harm?

I'll be updating the thread with new updates as the day goes along, so keep following the thread. I am working on finer details for the itinerary today.

Okay everyone, a wrench has been thrown in our plans. Due to the ridiculous line for merchandise spanning to the Land/wrapping near Imagination, the unannounced 11 am ceremony, and out of consideration for those who want merchandise, we will be pushing our meet up back in the day to 2 PM, still meeting at Imagination Gardens!

Looking forward to meeting everyone!

Wish I could've made it down! If it weren't for some storm, I would've been there.

I’m here with my wife and son, if you see us say hi!

 

[Figment82]

@marni1971 I saw you in line at LwtL this morning, but you were too far away to say hi! It was so great to see you, even from afar. I’m sorry I missed the meetup, my daughter had other plans and we ended up on the other side of the park, haha! Looks like a fun time!

 

[mkt]

greetings from the rose and crown where I will be having a pint shortly if anybody wants to say hi

[muddyrivers]

I hope you all celebrated by listening to @marni1971 latest megamix through the parks! If you thought the 25th mix was great, this one will blow your mind.

And tomorrow we shall be at Disney Springs for the post 40th hangover and some merchandise returns. My wife and I separately made some duplicate purchases and don’t want to deal with going to a park

And we need some greasiness and hair of the dog from Disney Springs.
