Blowing Out Illuminations One Last Time

[DisneyDefenders]

As I walked around Epcot tonight, after the final performance of Illuminations, I realized that there were 19 torches around World Showcase, and since those torches were blown out for the final time in 2019, Disney lit all the torches but one...number 19. Disney's attention to detail, never ceases to amaze me.

Or it could just be broke

Or it could just be broke

Of all the torches to brake...that would be quite a coincidence

Eh?

It's been broke for a few days.

Broke or not, it's still pretty cool!
Btw, this was taken after my very last viewing of RoE in April

I'm probably in the minority and I'm OK with it, but I never liked Illuminations all that much. I struggled to see the projections on the globe and I couldn't ever really hear the soundtrack that clearly.

The pyro was pretty good. I will say that much.

Yeah it’s been on and off all week. For the final show it died about 15 mins before the show and didn’t relight

What a freaking coincidence...number 19 was the only one that was out!

It's was Illuminations' final farewell tribute to Yeti.

I might be really dumb here but why is that significant though? Confused. Each torch represents a century, so the 19th century torch was out, and?

Disney merchandising: That barge is going to make sooooo many pins!!!

They couldn't even be bothered to add a farewell tag or even an announcement signifying the occasion so I don't think they were subtly extinguishing torches.
