    Yeah, just check this out. It is a little old, but still might have some secrets you don't know:

    About the 'prototype utility door' in Tomorrowland - Since Buzz was built .. does anyone know how much of the access was changed on the west end?

    (For those who don't know, in the days of Circle-Vision, there were offices hidden to the far left of the main entrance doors into Circle-Vision theater. From those offices .. you followed a corridor that leads you directly under Coke Terrace. Mainly storage area. A little further up .. you see the hydraulic stage to the right. You then continue through a truly dedicated "tunnel" portion .. that takes you on to Innoventions. And eventually .. backstage.

    When Buzz was built .. I have no idea how much of that office space was cut into .. and if the west access into the tunnel was modified.

    Anyone know?

    Another "tunnel" question ....
    The access path for Rocket Rods, which took guests underground .. and up again to the center boarding station. Was that tunnel completely filled in for Buzz .. or is it partially still there?
