Disney gets in a rut from time to time. I guess they are like anyone else… sometimes the new ideas are just hard to come by. Ever been on Universal’s “Earthquake” attraction? There was a ton of stuff going on at the Disney parks in the late 80’s and it all came to a head […]

Set a Course For Adventure:
The fabled Adventurer’s Club at Disney’s Pleasure Island was much loved and many protested loudly when it was shuttered for good. It (like all of Pleasure Island) always felt a bit forced to me. Too much pretending that it was New Year’s Eve (when in fact is was Tuesday November 8th or whatever) and too […]
Hip to be Square
We love our Huey Lewis references around the Parkeology offices. Anything that would confuse someone under 30 years old is cool by us. Told you he loved Disney. Shane was freaking out today.

So the Story Goes:
Parkeology is all about having fun and not being too serious. Afterall this is a blog about theme parks… not really world altering stuff. But sometimes things are just not fun or funny, sometimes thet are serious and sad. Thousands were trapped within the parks The past week and a half has brought us many […]
A few more…
Nothing too fancy today but we thought you might enjoy seeing a few more of the matchbooks of Disney’s past… Think of this as a continuation of last weeks post and we will have some new stuff up soon. The official hotels at the Hotel Plaza got in on the action as well. […]
