Whats the fate of the Fountain of Nations?

[Bing Bong]

A lot of the people here seem to be used to the broken version of the fountain... It hasn't worked properly for almost 15 years.

Upsets me terribly that they won't fix these to their most pristine condition. I tried googling to see if there are any stats on the fountains @ Bellagio being broken. Found only one specific result. 11/22/2014 and they were functioning again the very next day. How can a casino that has their fountain show free for all keep them running while a fee based park can't keep theirs working. Both were designed by the same imagineering (now former) team, btw.

Good to know. IllumiNations got some new speakers a few years ago. Maybe FW and the FON can get them, next.

What the crowds don't notice won't hurt them or their wallets. The Beagio Fountain has been looking pretty sloppy as well. I would love to see a hardware restoration but at the same time I don't know if any newer parts are comparable now. If so I would fear the new music they would choose. They could market off a good fountain show with all it's amazing origional long lost affects as well as new ones. Fountain shows are a destination landmark in big cities, Epcot can have the same thing to.

20 year old speakers, fountain jets, lights all probably running off some computer that came out before Windows 95 was released and Mackintosh Performa's and Packard Bell computers were the most advanced piece of household technology known to man kind.

Packard Bell...
