Well "Tarzon" doesnt exist anymore for one.

You guys have the mirror effect on your tower.

You guys dont have to deal with Super Soap Weekends.

The last one is pretty simple, only an Undead Monkey can top that.

You have MGM Studios, the Brown Derby, real Cobb Salads, pretty herons instead of the sparrows, miniature golf courses, water parks, the movie ride, and no Oprah.

Ummm...we do, or did anyway. We had a few Super Soap Weekends, but I think they gave up cause it was all a ploy to get people into DCA and I don't think it worked very well.

No doubt, our Fantasmic! is better then your Fantasmic! But, you got stadium seating!
They got rid of Tarzan Rocks mid '06. :mad: Now we got Nemo the Musical. :D:

BUT you got the subs!!!!!!!

Also, we also have those annoying Cheerleaders from Pop Warner. *cringes* Not sure which is worse. Dealing with them in the parks, or dealing with the Guests that complain about the cheerleaders. I'd take the guest complaints.

Do not get me started on the superiority of the east coast park. Better pin trading, better hotels, hotel pools are real pools and nice ones, a hotel next to the wild animals, transportation is cuter and better, better shows, better food, tree of life, wild animals, .............................

I got me a list a mile long on how I hate the management of disneyland and how they ruined my life and the parks. At least you do not have a leaking roof like Honey I Shrunk the Audience, wood rot at Tiki Room, wear and tear that is obvious, painted rails that had the paint come off before DLR opened at the mad mouse ride, slick slippery entrance to the park *shows knee that sill is damaged*, a rusted out metal post holding up the stairs to the skyway, bathroom doors that would pop open, ..............................

One thing about WDW is its big enough the ghetto is a bit far away. Both resorts have their advantages, thats what makes them great, the differences. But the one thing that will always make Disneyland special is Walt walked in the park.
