Yet Another Open Door at POTC! Pictures!

Breaking news...breaking news...the furor over open doors near the soon-to-be-reopened Pirates Of the Carribean attraction took another turn, when a crazed man nearly revealed everything (of the ride, that is;) ) while posing for some rather silly pictures Sunday morning.

Steve, who goes by the nickname "TicToc" was holding the camera when the unidentified large man decided to pose with a cardboard cut-out in front of the closed attraction. At first, it was innocent enough...

The man told authorities that he'd recently lost his own dog...and felt sorry for this one, real or not.

But then things took an ugly turn when the man posed with the pirate in the other cutout. He told authorities that he lost his balance a bit, and grabbed onto the bucco, and LOOK WHAT HAPPENED NEXT...

The man said he never meant to open the closed door (he didn't even know there was a door there!), saying something about the hysteria over open doors recently on a fan website called "MiceChat".

The man, at the time a 49-year old recluse living in a bohemian beach enclave, took one look inside...said he saw the "cursed treasure"...and hurriedly left saying something about "telling no tales".

His picture-taking friend swore off any knowledge of the crazed man.

An investigation is continuing.

Great, thanks, it's nice to know I only have ten more years until senility sets in. ;) Good one though!

You got me. LOL.

Great Pictures Barry.

All I truly wanted to do was have Tic Toc take another silly picture of a grown man posing with a cardboard pirate. I honestly had no idea the door was there...and when it swung open...we both laughed hysterically, and knew we could not deprive enquiring minds of yet another POTC open door! ;)

PS...The rather bewildered cast member nearby seemed to take it all in stride.

You were indeed at the right place at the right time.

hehehe, thanks for the laugh!

It was one of those moments where you had to be there. It was funny, the CM nearby was real gracious with us when the door popped open.

Why does that guy remind me of Sallah from Indiana Jones. Any why couldnt they just take a picture of what was inside the gate.

You big tease! Still, beggars can't be choosers so I will take what I can get for my POC fix :D

:ot: PS - Radiobarry are you heading to Omaha to watch your team? We might not have Disneyland but there really are fun things to do in Nebraska!

Not much to look at, trust me, either in front of, or beyond the door. Like Steve said, it was a "be-there" moment that I just thought I'd have a little fun with.

Unfortunately I can't make it..I'd love to take in a College World Series back there one year, though...

(And for those wondering what's behind the door... it's just the same old queue area... visible from the bridge they're diverting all traffic over)
