the day MK was open 24 hours (reg hours)
Getting to be in the Backlot Tour show, the one w/ Nautilus, water, and yellow raincoats.
Family picked to be in the original Imagination post-ride show. (Don't recall the name, but it was about photography)
Original Imagination post-show area

2am (and later) paper FP for Peter Pan
2am (and later) paper FP for Space Mtn

Watching an extended family group: adults, kids in a stroller, grandparents) all rushing across Tomorrowland to get to Space Mtn around 1am, and overhearing the grandfather saying, "I'm not even normally AWAKE at this hour, but tonight I'm rushing to get to a roller coaster! This is sooo much fun!" (or close to that)

This whole thread is making me so nostalgic :')
I've done so much over the years, so here's a couple of the weirder/less well known things:

-Got to feed Push the Talking Trashcan
-Did Jedi training academy multiple times (got to fight Maul and Vader!)
-Traded with one of the Vikings in Norway pavilion (not sure if they're gone but it was 2018 and I haven't seen em since)
-My family got picked to sign Figment's book in the Imagination queue (only a few yrs ago, but again I haven't seen it out since)
-The Muppets present Great Moments in American History
-Went to Star Wars Weekends several times (I won one of the trivia shows!)
-My first time seeing Tiki Room was during the unfortunate Under New Management overlay
-Went during the Year of a Million Dreams celebration (and still have the ears and dream Fastpasses)
-Got to be subjects for a photographer who was training for Capture Your Moment in Launch Bay before they had it available in HS
-Agent P game and the Duffy Bear version of Kidcot in World Showcase
PUSH! I never knew Maul was a Jedi Academy option, I only ever saw (and was lucky enough to fight) Vader. You can sign the queue line Figment book, WHAT???!!! And oh, I miss WDW Duffy... :(

Maul was the 'secondary' villain, so he was usually down next to the stage while Vader and troopers were onstage. They replaced him with the Seventh Sister or Kylo Ren when they revamped the show in the mid 2010s. My brother got to do a show w Kylo Ren before it closed, so he was lucky enough to participate in both versions of the show.

I always did it during the summer, and they needed both the villains to accommodate all the kids participating. I wonder if they sometimes just cut the secondary character when they had fewer participants???

Either way, we were lucky souls to be able to be Jedi graduates🥲

Oh yeah, Kylo was a villain too! I never got to see that rendition of the show. Didn't know about the Seventh Sister either TBH. Wow, I miss Jedi Academy...
