| So you've become our resident slacker AND cheater?! Kidding !!! Love ya!I haven't been in the Tiki Room before so I can't judge what it looks like...but I imagine the original looked the same (well before they added Iago and Zazu)...the name fits too. And the sponsor also goes well...

| | Not sure about this at all. Thought it was always known as the Tiki Room. I do know the original idea at DL was to have the Tiki Room be a restaurant, but they thought that people might be a little freightened to sit under animatronic birds (or animatronic droppings). Maybe they had that same concept for the one at DW? Anyways, I'll guess Dole was the sponsor back then, and maybe referred to Walt Disney's Enchanted Tiki Room?? |

| Ha Ha! LOL Bird droppings!!! Well, Dole is close....I'll give that to you....it was the "Florida Citrus Growers". The name was totally different than Tiki Room....clue: warm weather and singing.

| Oh duh, I knew the sponsors, one of my podcasts was talking about that awhile back. I'm gonna have to research the name though (sorry, been too busy to cheat with school and packing 'cause we leave in 5 days!!).

| | I had to look it up. Such a strange name. Never knew this fact about the Tiki Room. Always thought it was known as the official name. Wonder why they did this? I do infact remember going to the Tiki Room in 1979, when I went to DW with my grandmother for Christmas (I can only remember a couple things--- country bear jamboree, Peter Pan, Tiki Room, and Mr. Toad's Wild Ride). Great question!! |

| | During the 1959 dedication of the new tomorrowland (supposedly referred to by Walt Disney as the Second Opening of Disneyland), who were the guest(s) of honor during the dedication of the monorail? |

| Some astronauts? Buzz Aldrin? (wait, I guess that was after 1959 but that's still my guess)
