The Cool Tradition Walt Disney World Has When A Ride Closes In The Park

Happily Ever After fireworks at Magic Kingdom.

The beginning of February was a big time for Disney’s theme parks. The guy who ran them got promoted to CEO of the company. The upcoming Avengers Campus expansion at Disney California Adventure reached a major milestone in its development, but it was also the end of an era as the popular Dinosaur ride at Disney’s Animal Kingdom said its final goodbyes.

Disney Parks are a place of traditions for the guests, but that’s also true for the Cast Members who work there. When the new showbuilding at Avengers Campus hit its highest point, Cast Members signed the steel beam. When Dinosaur closed, the last people to ride it were the Walt Disney World Cast Members who made it great. While February 2nd was technically the last day of operation for the ride, the next day, Diservations captured that Disney CMs (and actor Wallace Langham) came together to say goodbye.
