    Can someone explain the recent trend of putting corn hole stands outside closed attractions? The first photo was posted elsewhere outside Monsters Unchained. I took the second photo today outside Pirates of the Caribbean which was closed all day today.

    Do you take new items left outside someone else's room?

    I see posts everywhere of well-intentioned guests leaving new items--snacks, drinks, etc--outside their room when they check out and notifying people on various forums they have done so. I'm curious if you actually pick up anything.

    WDW Interesting Promo for Elio (Beaming up Spaceship Earth?)

    Interesting way to promote Elio. With WDW removing four attractions (MV3D, ROA, RSI, Liberty Belle) within the span of one month, this seems tone deaf to me.

    MDE removed ability to add reminders for fireworks, shows, etc.

    For the last several weeks, I noticed that the feature to add fireworks, shows, etc. wasn't working. A button with the time would show up for you to click but nothing happened. Now that button has been removed altogether. You can no longer add those reminders. I especially liked it for AK...

    WDW Courtesy (or lack thereof)

    What are lack of courtesy situations that you have run into while at WDW? I'll start. I was on Pirates last night. Two ladies were talking incessantly in the row behind me in my boat.

    The hanging body in the Portrait Gallery has been removed. There is nothimg in the rafters as the lights go out. I guess its just as well. It was dead weight anyway. Also I noticed what appears to be candlelight in the graveyard scene. Don't remember that before.

    Where to watch football?

    With the closure of ESPN Zone, where on property can you watch football? Multiple screens are preferable. I return from a cruise on 10/28 and will be staying overnight at WDW. Would like to watch the Georgia-Florida and other NCAA games.
