Tri-Circle-D 2,059 Posted August 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 I am going to throw out a wild shot in the dark on the yellow tent. Maybe another baby care center. Like the one next to Crystal Palace. Probably not though since it would make sense to put a baby and first aid place next to the biggest little kids play area. Just a thought though. And the wifi is supposed to be so the smartphone users can actually use the new disney app with their next gen fast pass system.Let's see how I do.I am re-posting this because I just had another thought about that yellow tent.I wonder if it will be for an expanded Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique? That thing is a huge cash cow for Disney. Why not make a giant one complete with a gift shop full of costumes for guests to buy? It would fit in Fantasyland nicely- and the train station is right there for easy access.TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DaveInTN 3,247 Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 I wasn't going to say anything, but I suspect the yellow tent may be somehow related to the Iranian nuclear experiments being conducted in the blue pools at River Country. It's proximity to the Double Uranium Enrichment Centrifuges masquerading as Dumbo lends credence to my theory. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fortpartyof4 108 Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 My guess is some kind of eatery. They make tons of money on their food and drinks.Speaking of drinks, will Gaston's Tavern be a real tavern? Will we finally have a place to get a beer in the MK?FP4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SCTigerCock 171 Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 Speaking of drinks, will Gaston's Tavern be a real tavern? Will we finally have a place to get a beer in the MK?Hell is about to freeze over. Or it has and my following post is after the fact.I enjoy beer while on vacation and relaxing. HOWEVER, after seeing how it gets crazy and overconsumed at EPCOT, (WARNING HELL FREEZING OVER FOLLOWS), I hope they keep MK dry. I think kids AND parents need a park where they don't have to worry about obnoxious drunks. Walt had this one right. But then again when has the mgt at Disney followed Walt's wishes lately.

But, I am glad that there are not marauding crowds of drunks there. It does get real ugly at Epcot, and even Hollywood Studios some times.And FP4, I think you might be on to something. Even though they will have the Be Our Guest Restaurant and Gaston's Tavern, they may need some other food service locations over here.Be Our Guest becomes full serve at dinner, so they do need a quick serve place here. Gaston's doesn't look too big. That yellow tent could be a seating area and a food court type location like they have there outside Tower of Terror and RNR at Hollywood Studios. That would also be consistent with what the castmember told me about it being a place to rest. If they had drinks, snacks, ice cream and such for sale there, that would be a place people could sit down and eat and drink.And, taking Dave's lead, and thinking outside the box, I just had another idea . . .What about a DVC sale location?They need one of those in the MK.TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites

fortpartyof4 108 Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 Very good Dave! All those years you spent watching Scooby Doo are finally starting to pay off!How could I have forgotten the blue tanks?They are there for a reason, right?Well put, Genia.I agree with you. There are times that I would love to have a cold one at the MK. But, I am glad that there are not marauding crowds of drunks there. It does get real ugly at Epcot, and even Hollywood Studios some times.Agreed. I wouldn't want that, either. They should get rid of the smoking areas, too - or at least reduce it to 2 or 3 of them.It's a classic example of the people with no common sense ruining it for everyone. My husband and I have often commented to each other when we've had a long day at the MK how nice it would be to have a cold beer with dinner. Or to have a nice glass of wine while watching the electric parade. But, notice I said "a beer", or "a glass". Not 3. Or 10. Just the one. How can people afford to get sloppy drunk at Epcot, anyway? Those prices are so steep! When I do splurge and get a frozen drink in Mexico, it has long since melted by the time I finish it! I milk that sucker! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I agree with TCD and others, I hope they keep up with tradition. If you need a drink that bad, then take the monorail or a boat and get one at one of the hotels.
