Small Fire at MK Hub

[Goofyernmost]

I was responding to the person that thought the fire was a controlled burn. Unlikely they would leave hoses near the flames if it were controlled.

I understand, but the hoses were attached to the pump. The pump was what was burning. They had no choice but to be connected to the pump until the fire was out.

I don't see why posters need to chastise anyone for "going off topic". Isn't that what moderators are for. If there's a problem, they usually chime in.

Am I the only one that doesn't take these boards too seriously? Honestly, why do some people get so worked up that they think about not coming back? Once I close my browser, any negativity I saw here is forgotten.

Anyhow, too bad this didn't burn down the enclosed part of Cosmic Ray's, that was our favorite spot to sit and eat.

I was not suggesting you were off topic I was referring to the rants of things other than the fire. Sorry if you mis understood.

The fire was due to the exhaust from the pump being too close to the screening on the fence....

Really? Is that from Reedy Creek Fire Dept? I missed it.

It is really very scary with all these people in a park that the construction crew and contractor didn't know better. Worse that none of the engineers caught it.

I have the most beautiful picture of the hub around the castle somebody posted a while back.

Thankfully it was not the Tiki gods as we all know what happened last time they got angry.

Yep those Tiki Gods were BBQing the birds that night. Wasn't very long ago that the Mermaid roof caught fire. Not long before that Tomorrowland had 2 fires in pretty short order and then a few years ago a fire truck rolled up into Tomorrowland in 2011 when there was an issue around Orbiter ??? Right into the park on Main Street.

This is my background photo on twitter. The unusual makes for some good memories.

Plenty of flaming the last couple years in the Magic Kingdom
