Someone (Terri) actually posted that they wanted more WDW trivia so here it goes

  1. On Cinderella's Carosel, one horse with a gold ribbon on its tail, that's supposed to be Cindy's horse.
  2. In MgM on the street in the New York neighborhood you can hear gangsters talking and gun shots inside the buildings
  3. Star Tours, right as your leaving the droid room entering the staging area look up and you'll see 2 mechanical birds; a neat homage to the 2 crows (ravens?) on Splash Mt. just before the big drop
  4. Tower of Terror, Images of Mickey Mouse have been hidden throughout the attraction by mischievous Imagineers. During the entire show, for example, the little girl is holding a Mickey mouse doll. Also, look for the famous silhouette of three circles along the balcony railing just before you enter the building and as a water stain on the wall in the boiler room. Although probably not intentional, the bell for the elevator above Rod Serling's head in the Library film also bears a resemblance to those famous mouse ears. A reference to Mickey can also be seen in the sheet music in the Library which is a copy of actual music written in the 1930s. The child actress in the libraryis holding a doll that is one of the first Mickey Mouse dolls ever made, and it is the only Hidden Mickey that the design team has confirmed. The luggage in the lobby is a complete set made from genuine alligator skin. While looking through a 1930s furniture catalog, Imagineers decided to call the company to see if they were still in business. They were, and Walt Disney Imagineering had them reproduce two settees for the lobby. It is said that Imagineers had mahjongg players set up the game in the lobby so guests who know how to play the game can see that it is authentic. The top speed for The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror is said to be about 39mph. When you board the elevator, on the left side, outside of the elevator itself, is an inspection certificate that's dated Oct. 31, 1939, and signed by "Cadwallader". Cadwallader was a character in the sixth Twilight Zone episode "Escape Clause" who actually turned out to be the Devil himself. the inspection certificate number is 10259, which is cool because The Twilight Zone's first episode ("Where Is Everybody") premiered on Oct. 2, 1959.
