Can’t say I feel much watching this all close. Primevil Whirl was the only draw for me and it’s been closed for years. Either way looking forward to bigger and better things!

Very surprised with the wait times for something disliked for so long. The Oakland Athletics of theme park attractions I suppose. People distance themselves from it for years, but come to revere it in swarms on its final day.

Today was amazing!
There were so many people celebrating the land and having a good time. I saw three people dressed as Doctor Seeker, a whole family with handmade outfits based on the plush toys, and two separate instances of crowds being drawn because someone setup all the plush toys for a photo-op, among other things. One of the CMs was in the game in the middle was asking people their favorite thing about the land and giving fun facts.
I counted over a hundred people with dinosaurs, a special shirt, or some other special Dinoland accessory.
The fact that there were no more dinosaurs to win so I would never get to walk around and see people with the cuteness all over the place again was making me sad, but so many people brought them in from home that it was like they never left!
There was so much cheering for everything and plenty of people who were there from rope drop to close!
Chester and Hester's half of Dinoland will be missed. I'll treasure the memories (and my very large collection of dinos. Three giant igaunadons, baby!) forever.

Now that Dinoland is officially extinct, I am going to guess more concept art of Tropical Americas specifically what type of ride Encanto will be (trackless Mystic Manor style, Omnimover?) showed off at Destination D23 2025 in September.

Confession? I always thought these two Dinosaurs were supposed to be called Chester and Hester

I would've stood in line for hours for Chester and Hester. I don't want say I was hoping they would show up because I didn't really have any hope it would actually happen, but I made sure to keep an eye open all day so on the off off off off off off chance they did pop up I wouldn't miss it.
Then I saw the cast event signs and knew they would show up for that.
Again, just saying, it would've cost them like fifty bucks to get these people in just a little earlier to just wave good bye at the mob that had formed and everyone would have freaked out.
Chester and Hester (human husband and wife duo) owned the gas station before the dinosaurs were found down the street. They converted their store into a gift shop, made piles of money, so expanded to make the carnival.
I can see where you'd come to that conclusion, though, because all of their ads use a blue dinosaur.
