I have also heard that Eisner was a fan of PI, and more specifically the AC.

Who knows??

heard he was a fan of is a huge understatement. PI was his baby from start to finish. He pushed for it, he visited it frequently, everytime he was in Orlando. That dock over by Motion was built specifically for him to come by boat from other ares of DTD.

Having said that...April fools, but still nice to dream about PI being brought back isn't it?

Wow... I never assumed a reputable Disney news site would post a fool's joke.

I guess I was wrong!

To clarify, I meant the linked site, not DIS boards.

You were almost right, actually. You should have said:

"Pleasure Island is getting stripped."

The best part of the whole thing is ---> I never thought I would actually be excited about an Eisner return!

My favorite Disney-related April Fool's joke was the article stating that Splash Mountain was going to be re-themed; replacing the Brer Rabbit characters with Winnie the Pooh. I can't remember if it was here or at the Disneycorner site. But the thought of a Pooh-themed Splash Mountain still gives me nightmares to this very day.

On the PI subject, yes my hopes were up until I remembered what day it was. One can dream though.
