    Next time you are at the exit point to walk down from the Innovention's top deck. Look right to where the restrooms are .. and just look directly up.

    I've seen that happen not just once .. but multiple times.

    And not only are they closer .. but it's less crowded as you have Starcade, Space Mountain, and HISTA crowds all in that one location.

While this might possibly be true from the location that you end up in at the bottom of the exit ramp, I always find it a little surprising that they make no mention of the ones that are attached to their building. It may be a big building, but it's not that big.

    I wonder if there's some sort of sewer problem that makes them want to keep the crowds in the bathroom a little lower. I can't think of any other reason that they would avoid telling people it's there...
