In the very early days, the Autopia cars were not on tracks. Early in the mornings, some of the employees would race the cars up and down Main St. One morning, Walt caught them and gave them a tongue lashing... then walked away laughing to himself!

This little debate has dug itself into a hole. How great it would be to have the opportunity to personally explore the area beneath. That's the credible varification that I am looking for. Regardless of one]s opinion, it is a fascinating subject.

-The City of Anaheim provides Disneyland with Free Electricity.
-Mickey Mouse never appears in two places at once.
-The Metal thing under Sleeping Beauty Castle is the center of Disneyland, or where they first broke Ground, one of the two.

By the way, I don't vouch for any of these, they are just what I have heard since I was a kid. I don't really trust the Idaho rumor Mill

Lets see:

-Coca-Cola provedes Disneyland with free Coke products, as long as it doesn't sell any other brands.

Now for my top ten list:

• Walt originally wanted Disneyland to be called WalMart.
• "Queue line" is a redundently repetitive bad form of English.
• The original plans for Pirates of the Caribbean was to have the pirates eat the tourists whenever the ride breaks down. This would've been a protective measure to make sure people don't go around the Internet spreading tales about how PotC broke down.
• The Skeletons found in PotC are former Disney animators that participated in the animator's strike.
• If you were to fill one of the tea cups up with real tea, you'd probably be spending a lot of time in the Fantasyland restrooms.
• 52% of APers born between 1964 and 1983 were conceived in Adventure Thru Inner Space.
• Abraham Lincoln has about five dollars in pennies in his pocket.
• Never order the garmanbozia at Blue Bayou. It's not a valid food item.
• Small World CMs really find it annoying when you point at them right between the eyes just a half inch away from them.
• The auctioneer from PotC also runs a Disney Princess escort service.
