the tiki room in disneyland and now again in wdw have the same line and disneyland is celebrating the tiki rooms 50th anniversary this year so that is probably why they added alittle nod to it in the new BTMR queue i didnt have the time for a picture with the line moving but its right by the new autocanary machines there are a bunch of bird cages hanging from the ceiling and one of them clearly says rosita on it next time any of you are there go check it out for yourself its a fairly large white cage

Warning: Five Year Thread Bump!!!
I listen to Sorcerer Radio all. the. time. and hear Enchanted Tiki Room soundtrack played a lot and the line "I wonder what ever happened to Rosita." I have always been curious if this is some inside joke (or a removed joke but they did not remove the line from the script). I have tried to track down the answer (including searching threads here) and can't find it, but did find this thread.

So, to any visitors to Magic Kingdom (and to any who know, or think they know what happened) your tasks for today/coming days:
1. FINALLY post a picture here of BTMR that is the reference to Rosita (I bet you @Cmdr_Crimson has probably forgot about this;) or confirm it is not there.
2. What DID happen to Rosita? (or your plausible theory.)

It's actually a bit of stereotypical humor.
Pierre, the "French" bird, is excitedly calling out all the fancy female birds on the birdmobile, all of whom seem to also have dainty-sounding French names (Collete, Joséphine, Gigi, etc.) Afterwards, Jose, the "Mexican" parrot (voiced by a decidedly non-Mexican Wally Boag), wonders where "Rosita" is, the joke being that there's apparently one oddball female bird with a stereotypically Mexican-sounding name and that's the one the "Mexican" parrot is interested in.
The joke hasn't aged particularly well so it's just as well that people aren't "getting" it these days.

Yeah, I have read that explanation and, while it might be just because it is old humor, it doesn't strike me as it.
"What ever happened to" implies that she was there previously but long gone (trying to remember). Said another way, he is remembering her but not why she left or where she went.

It really is just a throwaway line meant to get a chuckle by juxtaposing different "foreign-sounding" names and Wally Boag's broad "Mexican" accent. It actually sounds like something Boag may have ad-libbed.
