I don't know why they put the memorial there but it's good to see they HAVE a memorial for him.

Yeah it's pretty random where the memorial is but it's better than none at all.

It kind of does seem random, but according to what I've heard, that location was chosen because Randy loved that ride and used to have a photo on his desk of him and his niece and nephew on it.

Here's some more information about the medallion and also a memorial Fellowship that Disney created at Carnegie Mellon: http://www.cmu.edu/news/archive/2009/Fe ... ship.shtml

Awww ok, that makes sense now. I'm just glad he's honored. He lived a good life.
