[wdwtheplacetobe]

YES, DPS!!!!!!

You get a Good-Old-Days' AAQ!!!


think up a good question to ask!!!

 

[dps17@case.edu]

so i just looked at this post and put down the anwser cause i knew it, what type of question do i ask?

 

[plutospup]

Any "trivia type" question that pertains to the four WDW theme parks.

 

[dps17@case.edu]

What does the 10/6 mean on the mad hatter's hat?

 

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Size Matters???

 

[disneycruise05]

I'm pretty sure the 10/6 is the pricetag of the hat...10 pounds 6 pence? Something like that....I think...

 

[dps17@case.edu]

That is correct

 

[wdwtheplacetobe]

dps!!!! To the Parks' Trivia Game....

There are a few basic rules....Questions are always in Bold, so that we can follow the game
AAQ's (ask a question) are awarded when a correct answer is given.
AFTER the asker acknowledges that you are right, you get to ask the next question.
Questions are limited to the Four Parks in WDW. (Nothing about water parks, resorts, or Downtown Disney)

I think that's about it...someone else please chime in if there's anything I forgot.... MBabe---explain Chalk Circle...that's a good story.

The Chalk Circle was based on a posting in another thread. A woman went to WDW and actually drew a circle of chalk on the ground on Main Street to save space for her family for one of the parades. She was horrified when people did not respect her circle and actually sat down in "her area".
The Chalk Circle became our cyber hangout where we indulge in Whiparitas (Dole Whips in the adult style), lay in our hammocks and watch the World go by.

Since we are missing a question, here's a softball:

What did you need to buy to ride the best attractions, such as Haunted Mansion and 20,000 Leagues, on Opening Day, 1971?

 

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Thanks, Dave! I NEVER get tired of that story!

Since you didn't mention any other rules, I guess I hit them all.

I'll leave the question open for someone else, even tho I think I know the answer....

AN E-TICKET?

 

[gometros]

AN E-TICKET?

I second DIsney Girlie-Wirlie's answer.

Now where is the Dole Wench with my Dole Whip?

AND A third!!!!

Hey Sandy!!! Everything going well in your corner of the world??? Good to see you!

 

[ksdave]

Disney Girlie-Wirlie gets the AAQ!! gometros gets a second and wdwtheplacetobe gets the third. E-ticket attractions were the coolest thing in 1971. Most now are either closed or generally a walk-on. It's amazing how tastes always change.

 

[disneycruise05]

Sorry for the slow response time...family emergency.

So here's my question:

How many triangular panels are on the exterior of Spaceship Earth?

 

[wdwtheplacetobe]

Hope everything is Okay....DisneyCruise...


My GUESS is 3071????

 

[disneycruise05]

Nope...I can say that the number is less than 1000. Each triangle that you see on SSE is part of a panel that has (what looks like to me) 3 triangles...if that makes sense.

Or for an easier hint....

The year WDW opened minus the number of countries represented in the World Showcase minus the number of happy haunts at the HM, minus 7...equals the number of panels.


P.S. Grandpa has a touch of pneumonia, and should be good as new by Wednesday. I'll try to get on as often as possible.
