What's your favorite "wink wink nod nod" moment at the parks?

Two tributes for Dreamfinder

1) The door just as you enter the Sound Lab..As you pass by it A light hits it and slowly dims out..Which I find sad..

2) Dreamfinder's Dream Catcher minus Blimp and Plaid Bubble hangs inside Mouse Gears.

When the Sargent introduces himself to you in the 2nd preshow room.

Thanks

Another favorite is on a poster in the Muppets 3D queue area with Miss Piggy in an astronaut suit that says "In Space No one can find their shoes"...which is a hilarious takeoff on the Alien "In Space No one can hear you scream" advertising logo...

The original Haunted Mansion tombstones. Those are the best in-jokes they've ever come up with.

I could have sworn years back in the original Star Tours droid room I spotted a canister that read "3D Muppets". I could never find it again after that.

In the Alien portion of the Great Movie Ride, if you're sitting on the far left look down at the base of the wall. There is a faux computer screen featuring a Nostromo "crew roster"....those are the name of the imagineers who worked on that portion of the show.
And yes...some of them are Alien chow....

His full name is...Sergeant C4703BK2704-90210

But we all call him "Fat SIR".

In SM the gopher sticks his head out from above you as you are ready to go down the falls and says FSU. One of the imagineers went to Florida State and added that to the ride.

I am not sure if that is there anymore. I looked for it the last ime I went (August) and did not see it.

I had seen it before.

I'm not sure if they even use this audio anymore but in the Original Star tours there were announcements on the PA for a land speeder in a no hovering zone with Licence number THX 1138 (Which is Lucas's first film) and another message was for a Mr Egroeg Sacul to pick up the courtesy phone..(Which was George lucas name backwards)

Me too!

The biggest joke on people is that the light bulbs are actually reverse motion sensor and voice activated. They come on once you walk away and stop complaining that they are not working.

The FSU Gopher is probably the most reliable animatronic on the attraction...

What's your favorite "wink wink nod nod" moment in the parks? That is, what makes you smile and say "ha, I got that in-joke"...

My favorite: The alien tourguide on Star Tours 2 doing the same finger wag while saying "smoking is never allowed" which is a direct copy of the Delta Airlines safety video flight attendant's finger wag.

I never noticed that on Star Tours! But I know exactly what you're talking about.

If you play Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom game, the villiams can get racy, watch for Cruella and her "itch".
