New Seating in the Tiki Room

[RSoxNo1]

Has this been done?

 

[JenniferS]

Has this been done?

If there wasn't a press conference, then I would say, NO.

 

[luv]

Yes - Disney will invite the press if they're going to make an announcement regarding new benches.

 

[lego606]

The work was unavoidably detained because changing the bench seating would threaten the structural integrity of the Tiki Room. The benches will remain in B mode for the foreseeable future.

 

[DaGoof00]

They could always install new Tiki Bathrooms instead

 

[Tom]

They're actually concerned with disturbing a known sink hole under the Tiki Room. Drilling the new benches into the floor will vibrate the earth too much, risking the entire building going down.

So instead, a giant vibrating spinning attraction will be installed called Mission: Tiki.

As long as they keep the window boxes with the rain.

The tiki gods are very territorial about their space and will not allow any alterations once so ever unless TDO wants another fire it is not going to happen.

I have a feeling the tiki gods booby trapped the place with a sinkhole to prevent changes from happening.

Sorry but Disney has decided to make the Tiki Room entertaining for a change:

 

[PeterAlt]

Yeah, I am wating for the huge press even where they announce the new Tiki room seating.

They should have Aflack sponsor it and keep Gilbert Godfried just to tick them off!

"In the AFLACK Tiki Tiki Tiki Room AFLACK..."

That's entertainment? The restored Tiki Room is great the way it is.

Except both companies would have to re-hire him to pull this off...

 

[Clever Name]

Do the Macarena in the Tiki Room.



It just needs more cowbell!

 

[lego606]

This just in: Disney has announced that the seating has been changed...

from what it was in the 60s.

 

[jeff59rt]

We missed the whole show by not being told to look up and complained to disney, now they will be installing reclining benches.

Do you folks even listen to yourselves? , , ...in WDW no maintenance is ever done. , , ...when WDW does maintenance, it's not were I think it should be, so let's ridicule it. Nothing makes this group happy. Nothing! Is it any wonder why they don't listen to anything that is said on this board and others. If I were a part of TDO Management I'd tell you all to kiss my bench cushion and go collect my bonus check. At least then maybe I could buy some love!

Disney is being disingenuous with the Tiki Room. It was originally created by Walt back in 1963 to promote tourism to Hawaii and United Airlines was the sponsor. Hawaii had become a state in 1959 and they needed all the tourists they could get. The Tiki Room created a big boost for Hawaiian tourism.

We all know that the next major zombie apocalypse is going to be centered in Hawaii. Yet Disney continues to do all it can to lure unsuspecting tourists to Hawaii. They built the Aulani Resort and they're running their cruise ship itinerary to Hawaii as well. They say nothing about zombies in their sales promotions.

I think the least that Disney can do is give guests fair warning and show some brain eating zombies in the Tiki Room. That way we wouldn't be so critical of how Disney runs the Tiki Room.

A new show like...

TIKI BIRD ALIEN ENCOUNTER

...would be GREAT!
