The best time to ride Pirates, Jungle Cruise and Haunted Mansion is at night. Hardly any lines and your eyes are better adjusted to the darkness so you notice more details. Same thing with Spaceship Earth. People run to that one first thing but if you wait til closing time, there's no wait.

I used to be part of the "Tinkerbell Flight Crew." What's even funnier isn't just where she lands, but the process we had to use to slow her down and "catch her."

Free Shellfish University
As an FSU alum and a fan, I get the reference. Sometimes we deserve it after boneheaded decisions by the players. However, on this forum, I would "Disneyfy" it by changing it to "Free Sebastian University".

Definitely Jungle Cruise at night. HM, POTC, and SSE are the same ride at day and night. You might say, "But wait! So, is JC." Oh, no. It definitely is not. JC is not just about what you see from your boat but also how well the skipper leads the passengers through the ride as well as the mood of the passengers itself. I was on it at night in early April, and I can tell you that the passengers were feeding off the skipper and vice versa. They would be completing the skipper's jokes and the skipper was grooving off that. I was already in a foul mood that night dealing with exterior issues and this ride really lifted me up. You get a very different experience at night than what you might get during the day (heat, cranky children, etc.)

So may have been mentioned already. The Well in ToonTown that talked to you...now gone. Loved the U R doomed in TOT. Free chocolate at Ghiridelli in DTD. Kiss Goodnight at MK which has been mentioned. Moving tree/bush at AK, If you bend down and look at the drinking fountain behind Cindy's castle, the crown on the back wall appears to crown Cinderella. Lance Bass from NSYNC years ago was on the monitor as you decended in SSE as he was going to go into space, now gone of course, Walt's apartment, at night at the Haunted Mansion if you look about the door for a while, you can see a light pass, Hidden Donald on the red velvet chair as well...lots in the Haunted Mansion, of course all the hidden Mickey's...but that is a post unto itself
Along with several Disney executives....

So mad that they retired PUSH!
They retired PUSH?? I didn't I was wondering why I didn't see it when I was there in January. That is such a bummer. I really looked forward to searching out his "voice".

I think they retired him at the beginning of February....I remember reading about it right after we had just left on Feb 5th.

@graphite1326, Usually when we leave DAK, we go to the right around a cave past Rainforest Café. If you go through the little cave, though, there is a wooden, swinging bridge. It's nothing amazing, but it's now our habit to give a few jumps on the bridge before leaving. Enjoy!
Yup, they are indeed gone. I had read that they removed them somewhere in the aftermath of 9/11, but who knows if that's actually the reason. I do miss when Disney takes out tiny quirks like that.

If you saw the process, it's pretty funny and low tech. We actually had to catch her in a moving blanket because if she hit the pad at full speed (even using the brake) she'd get injured. Basically, as she would come down, another technician and I, would have to immediately go into a sprint and then slow her down with the moving blanket. Somewhere awhile back on here I posted a picture I took with my phone where I was looking at the castle from the Tink landing deck.

This. Unfortunately only viewable by Cast as you can see by the time of the competition. Friends who have participated tell me it is a blast. Sounds like it would be fun during park open hours. I would trade MiSiCi for this.
