Golden Idol

[Richy_roo]

When i was in Adventureland once, a cast member (adventurer) gave out maps and clues to a stolen idol, although i was outnumber by children, i set off and after jostling my way through the pack (my embarressed wife following) .

located the golden idol and returned it to its rightful owner...


for my efforts i was given a front of line pass, for my party on ANY Magic Kingdom attraction.

i chose Thunder Mountain, as id been on the other e-ticket rides.

Has anyone else had any of these kinda experiences!!!!

That is really really neat.

This is the kind of thing they should be doing - magical and cheap!

Richy were you atying on site at the time? It was 1997 when we did it, when we were @ Dixie Landings. I was just wondering if it is something they do on EE days.
