I was being shady guys lol.

Must have missed that 8-mile font, shady......

Fixed that for you.

Holy Moly it was 9 of them?! I was younger when they had them and didn't realize how big it was. Dang.

Didn't EPCOT used to have a Holiday Light display a few years back? Never to return?

Yes they did!

I've heared whisperings and rumors that the Osborne lights or some sort of Christmas lights extravaganza could possibly make its way to EPCOT, seeing that it is done for good in DHS. Has anyone else heared anything about this?

Maybe something smaller, but I don't think the stores would tolerate the level of disruption the installation of something of the scale of Osborne would cause.

Because really, when you get right down to it, the level of disruption that came with making everything into Disney Springs was just some piddly annoyance that pales in comparison to putting up Christmas lights.

Springs will be quite beautiful for the holidays. Town Center especially.

That will be nice. Meanwhile, DHS will be virtually empty even with 1/3 of the park walled off.

Even more of a reason not to cause further disruption 6 months out of the year for the lights.

Considering they returned the lights to the Osbornes it's not likely.

What would that family possibly do with all those lights...

Probably the same thing they did with them prior to loaning them to Disney.

Just what they did before, irritate their neighbors and the greater local community.

Keep in mind a majority of the lights themselves were Disney's and supposedly scrapped. The family received the original figures back, which are certainly large with a ton of lights, but not the millions Disney advertised.

There have been reports that the family has received offers from other entities to display the figures, so I wouldn't be surprised to see them again soon. Can't imagine the family would want to pay to store everything long term which would only cause them to deteriorate over time.
