Originally Posted By CuriousConstance Cool, but I can feel for a shorty, like me, stuck behind a sea of the ears further blocking their already limited view.

Originally Posted By yamabuki The ears interact with the lighting at Mad T Party. They react to the beats of the music and DJ lighting. There are hidden areas throughout the park that also react to the hats (try wearing them inside Flo's V8 Cafe and Luigi's Flying Tires for example!)

Originally Posted By utahjosh "Very cool, but what did I have visions of mind control chips going into those ears? Lol" My wife had the same reaction. First, she thought it was amazing. Then, creepy. She even mentioned mind control.

Originally Posted By Autopia Deb I noticed in the clip one guy waving his ears around and they didn't synchronize the way the other hats did. Is there a pressure switch or button inside that lets the chip in the hat "know" when it's being worn?
