Is that a straw sun hat on the left in slide 3? They should make that again. It would be a hit!

Genuine question. Who are these buyers that get these attraction pieces? Does Disney sell to esteemed collectors when a ride closes?

For whatever reason I have been enjoying Indiana Jones a lot more recently. It’s not the snake that’s still too slow or “fixed” boulder scene that wasn’t working last Sunday. It seems like the motion of the Jeep is more thrilling and closer to what it was when it first opened. Has anyone else noticed this? Is it just me?

Not sure how it took me until now to realize this tower was a (pathetic) recreation of the Santa Fe Depot in San Diego.

So what else is around the Twin Cities outside of the baseball stadium? Any great places to eat? Wasn't thrilled with the pizza the office brought in.

There just wasn't anytime to get away.

I feel so horrible for the young man on board. 19 is so young.

The news cycle has moved on but his mother has said that she was originally going but her son wanted to set a deepest Rubik's cube solve record so he took her place.

Home of the world-famous Juicy Lucy. There are a couple of other places that do it also but Matt's Bar is the best. There is usually a line going out the door every weekend.

I saw that!

So my brain immediately went to "so, what is the truth?!"

Within a family, who knows? Maybe both.

Was there a point where they stopped doing the sunset Sh-Boom thing? Because it was popular from the day Cars Land first opened.

I find Rise’s queue sort of punishing and rarely ride it anymore. Maybe rope-drop is the solution?
