Yes! The nautical flags are warning "piranha in pool". It's the little details like this that hardly anyone notices that make Disney so much fun!

Your turn.

Approximately how many guests attended opening day at Disney World?

I recall it was a heckuva lot more than they anticipated...maybe 25,000?

Nope, but I've seen speculation that 25k might be Magic Kingdom's limit on attendance when it reopens....

Let's double my guess; 50,000?

Think I've heard that number mentioned for initial capacity levels too. Should be plenty of elbow room!

Getting colder with 50k.

Went the wrong way...Think I'll try 15,000?

Not quite there yet... But getting warmer!

Tempted to go to the next round number, but think it could be just a little more than that. I'll try 12,000?

kraysister · Posted: Tue Jun 30, 2020 4:44 pm Post subject:

Even warmer!

10,000? Guess I'll just keep inching down!

kraysister · Posted: Wed Jul 01, 2020 10:35 pm Post subject:

That is correct! Official count was 10,422. With all the expansions done, I think max occupancy is 100k.

What was to be the original name of Splash Mountain, and why was it changed?

Assuming it was still based on Song of the Soutb, maybe Brer Rabbit Falls?

On the right track, with being based on an element of Song of the South. Not a character, though.
