Originally Posted By CuriouserConstance lol I remember reading in one of the MouseTales books where CMs would try to create scenes in the Treehouse to encourage guests throwing money onto the scene.

Originally Posted By CuriouserConstance I know. I'm sure CMs have pretty much tried and done it all on guests. I remember another CM who noticed a particularly touchy, feely couple, and when the couple asked him exactly how long the ride would last he told them it lasted 20 minutes. It actually was only like 7 minutes, so when the ride came out after 7 minutes, the couple was half dressed and all over each other, lol.

Not about potentially longer returns come January. That said, I don't believe for a second that the Matterhorn will close for 18 months. If they ever bring on the new sleds, it certainly wouldn't be surprising it they combined that with a standard track refurb, but that's about it.
