I haven't been really visiting MK lately so I wouldn't know. I just would like to know when was the last time on a beautiful, sunny Orlando afternoon a child was able to run up to Mickey and Minnie in front of the castle and dance in circles, hand in hand, with no one in sight. Talk about false advertising.

They might have went to making it more sparadic because when I saw it they were doing it like clockwork in the mornings. I never mentioned it online but that wouldn't have mattered, I'm sure word got around as you said and they had lines of parents asking, "HEY! Where's Pooh? When's Tigger coming out to ride with my son?! Can I wait to the side until Pooh shows up?"

This stuff should be a new topic: the most outrageously misleading Disney promos. What might be fun is if someone created a parody promo depicting actual or very honest typical experiences at WDW. Like a whiny 5 year old at Epcot at 10pm, a close up shot of a frustrated Dad carrying 4 burgers, 4 friess and drinks at the "Lunching Pad" while trying to find available seating at 12:30 in July, a close up shot of the stand by time for Soarin showing 75 minutes or maybe some romantic footage of a British couple looking lobster red at Blizzard Beach as they hold hands in the main wave pool.
