I think they served Iago and Zazu over at the turkey leg stand yesterday afternoon.

Actually...I heard they replaced the two buzzards at Chickapin Hill with Iago and Zazu.

Hope not! Those two buzzards did their jobs better than Iago and Zazu! It would be ETR: UNM all over again: bring in the inferior replacements...
Actually, boilerbabe, we're probably not cold enough. Back in Dec 2010, that visit to ETR: UNM was one of the worst Disney attractions/rides/shows I was unfortunate to witness...

You're saying that the various painful live stage shows where they kept saying "Disney World" over and over again were better? That's like saying "oh being boiled in lava is much worse than being boiled in oil".

Nice job!

I noticed a few places where the show was shortened from the DL version, but I won't say anything in order to preserve it for anyone who is waiting to see it in person.

But would you be really spoiling it if they already knew the DL version? It's not like there is a shocking twist at the end.

LAKE BUENA VISTA -- The Reedy Creek Fire Department is responding to a call about a small fire at the Enchanted Tiki Room at Disney's Magic Kingdom theme park Wednesday.
Sources say they have restricted access to the Tiki Room, along with th...e Country Bear Jamboree, Pacos Bill Tall Tale Inn and Cage and the Sunshine Street Terrace.
No injuries have been reported.

Gotta love Reedy Creeks fast responses. Never forget about the day we had a signal at Peter Pan and had to do an evacuation. Was really hectic but everything ended up working successful and the guest all got to enjoy Mickey Mouse sandwich ice cream bars lol

A Mickey Mouse ice cream bar would be waaaay better than a free FP for being stuck on an attraction

I thought so... the Guests also received a preferred entry pass for an attraction. All not bad if you ask me

Finally saw the non-UNM version of Tiki Room today. Consider me converted. UNM, what were they thinking??
