Here are some more tidbits I didn't see mentioned:
Between The Pirates League and The Pirates Bazaar shop there are 5 Pirate movie props - but getting the Pirate CMs to point them out is difficult because the Pirates aren't familiar with the phrase "movie." There used to be 6, but one was stolen shortly after TPL opened.
Inside Casey's Corner there is a team photo where females are wearing mustaches - since women weren't supposed to be playing the sport in that time period.
The official fruit of the Grand Floridian is the Pineapple. You will see Pineapple inspired art from light fixtures to the wall paper if you look.
We've all heard of shows being canceled, for whatever reason... but Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular prides itself on never canceling a show. They can always offer some modified version (which may only last 5-10 minutes), but they avoid canceling if at all possible.
There are 4 mechanical balloons inside the Land pavilion which represent the 4 seasons. When the location originally opened the balloons moved up and down. However, when the area was remodeled for the seating, they later discovered they could no longer fit the cherry picker in the building to service the balloons, so eventually they all stopped moving and sit stationary today.
And I had to correct this one...
I would have never guessed that the animatronic Simba in the Festival of the Lion King is 12 feet tall!
It's not an animatronic. The four large animals in FOLK are puppets, Simbas front legs are the Puppeteers legs.
I learned that when I worked in Fantasyland
and they had to airlift her out in an air ambulance. So the next time I saw it, before she slid down the rope, she slipped her wrist into a rope loop (attached to the triangle) as a safety precaution.
