But seriously, any idea when heāll be moving again?

Disco Wheezy could be pretty cool at night. They could even pretend it was intentional

When I was down there a couple weeks ago I noticed it too. I also love the yellow duct tape holding the cord onto his microphone.

He's in "B mode" (much like the Yeti, that doesn't stand for Beast, either)

Honestly not surprised for an outdoor AA. But the lack of fixing it is what really surprises me.

After the yeti...lack of fixing is just the status quo anymore. I'm more surprised when they do fix something.

Well, I've always felt there's at least some plausible reasons for not fixing the Yeti, but an AA like wheezy that is VERY accessible is just unforgivable.

I don't want to venture too far off course, but the vast majority of those reasons have been busted to bits by our insiders. It all comes down to money. They don't want to spend the money to fix something that sadly the vast majority of guests don't even realize is broken.

Wait, seriously? I always thought it was structural issues.

Just got done speaking to a bus driver's cousin's dentist, and she told me that the reason Wheezy is broken is because the base of Wheezy is cracked... in order to fix him they'll need to remove all those toy blocks, the books surrounding him, in addition to the entire track of the ride and also all of Rise of the Resistance.

Nope. The structural issue trope is just repeated endlessly by YouTube imagineers... lemme go find my cut and paste explanation real quick.
EDIT: Here is the explanation for @spacemountaincarlo and anyone else who wants to read it.

I think this was the most recent thread. But there are a few threads on point.

It does now. But it didn't always, at least not with this company.
"As the original Mary Poppins budget continued to grow, I never saw a sad face around the studio. Even my brother Roy was happy. This made me nervous. And then a horrible thought struck me: suppose the staff had finally conceded I knew what I was doing?" -Walt
"Well, after forty-some-odd years in the business, my greatest reward is I've had the public appreciate and accept what I've done all these years, that is a great reward. I think by this time, my staff, my group of executives are convinced that Walt is right, that quality will out. And I think that will hang on after, well, after Disney." -Walt
