Even an hour is stretching it for me; I've been to DL enough to not feel the need to have to ride something so badly that I am willing to wait that long.

Originally Posted By wonderingalice 2.5 - 3 hours for Splash Mountain on the first weekend it officially opened to the public. My ex and I were there as two of the 60+ guests of a Las Vegas radio station that was broadcasting live from Disneyland for the event. The line was horrendous, but it WAS the main reason we were there that time, so we grabbed a couple of frozen bananas and waited. Good thing we did, too... on the second day of the trip, Splash was "down." We ended up being two of just a handful of the LV folks who got the chance to ride and it totally worth the wait!
Originally Posted By MomluvsDisney My best friend and I waited over three hours for the Indiana Jones ride on the first weekend when it opened. But it was fun atmosphere, and decoding the codes on the walls killed time (even though a majority seemed to be product ads...lol). In fact we both slipped into the Tiki room for that show while the other waited in line. So we ended up with a show each, some yummy whip and then the Indy ride which was worth the wait!
