Anyone know why The Seas in Epcot evacuated?

[Eckert]

One of the most common reasons for evacuating a ride is a technical issue that requires more time than they feel is acceptable to leave the guests on the ride to resolve.

I'm chalking it up to something simple like that. No tank-cracking vomit fire.

They found nemo. Attraction over.

That is very odd. Do you know if and when people were allowed back in?

I heard that only those people who were strong swimmers were allowed back in.

Just keep swimming, just keep swimming...

it was at least an hour or two.... May have been longer. We ate lunch and rode a ride and it was still closed.

Still no one knows why? Pretty spooky

 

[ChrisFL]

what if someone vomited ON the fire?

what if someone vomited ON the fire?

Then it would smell like the monorail?

Did they reopen yesterday?

A young blue tang fish became separated from her parents. With help from cast members and two clown fish, they all embarked on an epic adventure in the Living Seas pavilion to find them. Their journey forces them to search sea base alpha, the Coral Reef Restaurant and stop in to quick conversation with Crush to find out if he had seen them. it is unknown at this time if they were successful.

Could be a guest who became very intoxicated after drinking around the world decided to pop into the seas, vomited all over the place, started a fire by throwing a lit cigarette into a pile of plush nemo toys, and then climbed inside of Bruce and starting shouting obscenities to the point where all guests started running for their lives.

Fish are food.

Kind of weird that if you look it up online the only thing that comes up is this forum. I saw someone ask it in a Facebook group yesterday and then the post went missing!! Super weird! I wonder why it closed and for how long.

 

[WDW Guru]

Is it back open today? If it is then its most likely nothing major.

 

[mouse_luv]

Lines is showing it up with a 35 min wait.

I believe it was a Signal 25 (Fire Alarm) issue, although there wasn't an actual fire I believe, just an issue with the alarm system.
