No i didn't know that. How odd.

Did you know that you can ride Cinderella's Horse on the carrousel? It has a golden ribbon on the tail!:thumbsup2
 
Did you know that "The Song of the South" will never be available again in the U.S.? It has too many un-PC words and phrases that are degrading to the African American population. But, you can still get it through E-bay from S. Korea!
 
DYK... that there are 37 hitching posts in the MK that get stripped and repainted everynight!!!! Talk about tedious!!
 
Did you know that when Magic Kingdom first opened its doors on October 1, 1971, adult admission cost $3.50?

If I'm not mistaken, that was just to get into the gate. You had to buy tickets for the rides. They were A, B, C, D & E classifications. The more expensive rides were the E tickets. My first trip to Disney was in 78 or 79, I can't quite remember, by then the rides were all inclusive but it still wasn't half the park that it is today.
 
DYK...that Kodak estimates that approximately 4% of all amateur photographs taken in the United States are snapped at Walt Disney World Resort or Disneyland?
 
DYK... That Cinderella's Castle is the most photographed building in the world

BUMP
