Thought I could share some little-known facts regarding WDW in no order and of no particular importance. I've got access to a ridiculous amount of these sort of tid-bits (perhaps enough to fill thousands of pages on here!), so I'll just start with random stuff, and perhaps someone will find...

Couldn't find a post on this yet - sorry if it's a double. Considering that entrance into the PI clubs was included in the price for my Premium Annual Pass, any chance Disney would reduce the price of the PAP? Considering the fact that we're getting less, shouldn't we be charged less...

To be called: "Magical Milestones"? This is a rumor. Repeat, this is only a rumor. Do not adjust your computer screens. :lookaroun I heard it from a bus driver. : )

Heard today from a pretty reliable source that Disney will soon announce more specific plans for their smaller themed "parks/attractions" in cities outside of their traditional theme park locales. I don't have much specific info, but I was told that a speech would happen in the "near future"...

Can't say where I heard this, but on Oct 1st look for the following merchandise in EPCOT: mickey ears: the head is 1/2 of spaceship earth outer design, with one ear having the original pavilion logos on it and the other the flags from world showcase. t-shirts: with the original EPCOT pavilion...

To anyone who has any say in what happens on Oct 1st, or anyone who is reading this from the Disney company that can make this happen: I have one very small request.... Please, oh please play the original 1982 EPCOT entrance music on October 1st for the 25th anniversary. Most guests wouldn't...

I was in EPCOT today and spotted an Egyptian Goose drinking out of the water near rose gardens adjacent to the Imagination Pavilion. These are pretty rare in Florida, and I know Animal Kingdom has a few. Maybe one got out. I'm pretty sure the only ones in Florida are escapees from zoos, etc...

I noticed Disney.com provides customizable maps these days. Then I also noticed a thread about Wonders of Life no longer being on the maps. That got me thinking. How long before Disney comes out with maps you can carry through the parks that show your exact location within the park - sort...

I'm hoping someone might be able to help me out that knows a thing or two about pins. I don't collect pins, but I decided to buy four of the 20K leagues piece of history pins when they came out in the off chance they might be collectibles some day. I heard recently that someone bought one not...

I noticed yesterday that the jumping water in the flood scene of SM was working for what seemed to me like the first time in years. I hadn't seen it in a while at least. Good to see this fixed up. Now if only they could fix that hopping rabbit on a permanent basis.

Spent Friday-Sunday with wife between all 4 parks. I'd post wait times, but there weren't any for us! Walk on for everything for all parts of the day we were in each park. Splash, BTMRR, Test Track (this is the first time I just walked right on to this), Soarin, ToT - all walk-ons. Even Pooh...

Does anyone have recordings of the old WDW Information radio station that you could pick up as you got near WDW? I figure it's not likely, but I figure I'd ask here.

This is to me, as I'm sure it is to many, one of my favorite Disney cartoons of all time. I've heard rumors that one of the upcoming Disney Treasures DVD's will have this on it, but I can't find any confirmation of that. While searching online I did find out that Disney DOES sell this on DVD...

Forgive me, of course, if this has been posted. Couldn't find it in a search. I hit POTC this weekend for the first time in a few weeks and noticed that the Pirate whose leg dangles over the bridge has been changed. He's now different from the leg up, and blows into a jug to the music...

The last dozen or so times I've been to Ice Station Cool there hasn't been any snow falling inside. This has been the case in the summer, fall, and this winter. Anyone with any info on this know if I should ever expect to see snow fall inside again, or if this is another thing Disney is...

Does anyone have accurate and up-to-date information on what the 2005 Annual Pass benefits will be? I thought they were to be released Jan 2nd. Also, I purchased my last AP in July. Will my '04 benefits stay until July 05, when I buy my next AP. Or do they just exchange my '04 benefits for...

For those interested in this story... Judge: No Proof Disney Stole Epcot Idea By MIKE SCHNEIDER, AP Business Writer ORLANDO, Fla. - A federal judge has dismissed a lawsuit that accused the Walt Disney Co. of stealing the idea for the Epcot theme park. U.S. District Judge Patricia...

Hey all, For those of you that can't get enough of Off Kilter (the band that plays in EPCOT), they'll be performing at the Celtic Festival in my town, Dunedin, on November 20th. They're scheduled to do 2 shows that day. Just as importantly, they'll be plenty of beer...

Looked for this on the forums, but didn't see anything about it - I was in EPCOT sometime last week and noticed a "Winky" car from Mr. Toad in World Showcase in EPCOT. Here's a pic. Another tribute to the Toad found throughout WDW...
