about
Len Testa & Jim Hill take you back to October 1, 1982. Which is when over 25,000 people came flooding into Future World & World Showcase and completely overwhelmed Food Service in the front half of that theme park
lyrics
Over the course of this episode, listeners will learn about:
Why Disney execs decided to have swing bands from the 1940s provide the entertainment at the Spaceship Earth gala
How many countries did WDW publicity head Charlie Ridgeway say would eventually set up pavilions around World Showcase Lagoon
Why did the physical set-up of the Farmer’s Market at The Land wind up making things worse when it came to EPCOT Center’s opening day crowds
How late in the day did WDW Operations team toy with opening World Showcase during that Resort’s slower times of year
Hyrum Osmond -- the talented animator behind those “Olaf at Home” shorts -- was supposed to be the director of a new feature-length film version of Winsor McKay’s “Little Nemo in Slumberland”
How much did La Carnaval de Lumiere have in common with “lluminations: Reflections of Earth”
