Last week Shane reached the midway point on our list of the 50 Greatest Park Characters of all time by focusing on some Disneyland originals. His odd obsession with Wally Boag not withstanding it was a pretty strong list. Today I dug out 5 more of these classic vintage trading cards. While the cards feature […]
Last week Shane showcased another five of his favorite cards RIGHT HERE. As I have discussed in the past I was around 14 when EPCOT Center opened. As an adolescent boy my hormones were raging like bulls in Pamplona, out of control and seeking something to gore. Unfortunately I was also a Disney fan and […]

Don’t get ahead of yourself but part two of this series can be found HERE. Upon hitting the scene in 2011 The Disneyland Hotel’s Trader Sam’s Enchanted Tiki Bar became an instant hit. How could it not be? After all, it combines several things Disney does extremely well: heavily themed environments, clever special effects and […]
Well maybe it’s not that dire, but we have always tried to keep a unique angle on Disney around here. That’s not to say that we don’t love what the many (many, many) other Disney sites provide. In fact we can’t get enough of it. But lets be honest… the world does not need more […]
