I don't trust Pro as far as I can throw him but after the chaos on Sunday nothing would shock me.

Tiana's Bayou Adventure: Disneyland Watch & Discussion
- Thread starter Californian Elitist
- Start date
I’ll believe the quick closure if and when it happens.

I do just wonder if they want to rip the band aid off and be done with it though I do suspect TDA is not in favor at this time with Mansion, Indy/Adventureland pathway, GRR and most of Toontown and possibly Fantasmic all down in February.
Certainly hasn’t been a great media cycle for a company that wants to put SoTS behind them.

They need to give a closing date, and they need to give more than week's notice.
A minimum of a month's notice is needed, IMO.
Otherwise they're unnecessarily PO'ing a lot of fans who already don't want this change to happen and making them further against the redone ride.

This is a mess that they created and have never taken full responsibility for. They deserve every last bit of bad press they get.

Oh, I agree. I’d argue by calling the IP “problematic” after trying to split the baby on this for so long has been rubbing salt in the wound of the fans for a while.
And this from someone that agrees with the need for a contemporary Tiana-based retheme. The way they’ve tried to “too cute by half” the whole thing to almost pretend the SoTS property never existed at all is a little ridiculous and insulting to the customer.
Just give Splash Mountain a proper send off and accept that yes, SoTS is an antiquated property of its time that will dominate discussion for all its faults.

Does anyone here know any CM's that work Splash? Knowing if Splash closes in a few days should be as easy as looking at scheduling.

Wait, Splash Mountain might actually still be running when I go to Disneyland in early March? Hells, yeah, if true.
If they want less drama, they will announce a closing date in advance for Disneyland’s instead of closing it out of nowhere. DL fans are nuts.
I don’t believe this rumor.
Maybe the sudden shut down is to keep people from stealing and reselling all the water leaving the ride bone dry!!

This just boggles the mind.
The ride isn't going to be bulldozed! Do some think it is going to become a parking lot or something?
Money to go to HBCUs.
I thought you were referring to auctioning off the actual last guest rider and was very worried for a second

I mean- I get it. Splash is my favorite thing at Disneyland, as far as I'm concerned this Tiana thing is a completely separate ride (that I will likely never ride).
So I can understand why someone would differentiate Splash Water from Tiana water- it'd be like saying Tower of Terror is the same as Guardians. Even if I think purchasing theme park water is a bit extreme. To put it politely.

I might order a few jars, fill them with pool water and sell it as Splash water. I mean if there's money to be made....
