Goat-Choker Trivia
Forum rules
At the old Disney Hyperion Studio, the screening room where animators would show animated scenes to Walt for his approval was small, with no ventilation or AC. Not only was it hot, but the animators were nervously awaiting Walt's reaction to their work. Thus, the room became known as the Sweatbox. Even after the Studio moved to Burbank and elegant screening rooms were offered to the staff, the moniker remained.
Now SGT has a sweatbox of our own. This is the place to find and post all entertaining topics such as video links, jokes, games, and the like. A general rule of thumb is that if the thread is meant to be informative (interesting news stories for example), or a topic for discussion (like setting up a park meet) then it should go in the Break Room, but if the intent is to entertain the masses then it's home is The Sweatbox. I'm sure there will be grey areas at times, so if you have doubt as to where a new thread should go, just use your best judgement and the SGT Staff will be glad to move it later if you guessed wrong.

Re: Goat-Choker Trivia
Here's a timely goat choker. In what state would the Easter Bunny be busted for not wearing a helmet?
Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen.

Yes! We have a winner!Rosie wrote:I haven't been keeping up but did anyone suggest Lady and the Tramp at Tony's?
Okay, so that's three: Main Street Cinema, Casey's Corner, and Tony's Town Square.
If y'all don't get it by tomorrow, I'll tell.

The fourth location is the DVC center next door to Le Chapeau. When a likely prospect family walks in, they pop a DVD into a player and suck up the kids' attention so they can work the adults.
Okay, on to the next question:
"Name a link between Batman and a Disney animated feature."
Notice how I'm not asking for the one and only link any more? Some of you guys are scary, even to me.

Ummm.... The DVC center closed up years ago, before I even started with the company. Le Chapeau expanded into that space.Zazu wrote:Your silence is most eloquent.

Around here, however, we don’t look backwards for very long.
We keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things, because we're curious…
and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.

I believe Mr. Bunny was caught in La Mesa, CA. Apparently he was let off with a stiff Warning: "Tricks are for Kids!" :twisted:hobie16 wrote:Here's a timely goat choker. In what state would the Easter Bunny be busted for not wearing a helmet?

An episode of Kim Possible had the sidekick Ron Stoppable stumble upon the hideout of a superhero voiced by Adam West. Ron Stoppable was also voiced by the actor Will Friedle who voiced Terry, who became the new Batman in Batman Beoynd. Will is known as Eric Matthews in Disney's Boy Meets World.
Parties of 33 should consider dividing their parties into two groups of 16 and a half each.

Adam West voiced Uncle Art in Meet The Robinsons (Remember Meet the Robinsons? No? Don't worry; you're not alone). He also did a voice in Chicken Little.
