I was coming back On Stage after a break, and used the Backstage Door located behind Innoventions. This is the backstageish area that the Carousel Building platforms rotate through.

As I walk through the door, I see the oddest thing.

A large group of guests seated on the platform, slowly rotating through. It seems that they were loaded on the platform to enter Innoventions and were never actually let in to the building. Instead, they had to stand, and eventually sit there as the building crept forward. We ended up walking them out.

What gets me is that no one noticed the group of guests who were standing on the Platform doing nothing. Also, they should have figured out something was wrong when the video finished, nothing happened, and they got a near-circle tour of eastern Tomorrowland.

:rolleyes:

I have witnessed SG asking cast members if the Mark Twain ship will drop them off onto TSI. I seriously don't know where that ship would stop and folk, if you are smart, take the dang rafts and stop perstering those who are trying to work. :cool:

Sounds like they let themselves onto a non-op preshow.
Only about half of the doors are working at all.


If you ever stop and ask yourself: "How do they dress themselves?"
Congratulations and welcome to my world.

I was in Innoventions back when the disabled were supposed to exit down stairs. The CM let me out at the wrong time and left me back stage to wonder around until I found the exit. He did not even point left or right, lol. Not much was back there besides lockers and a bulletin board of some sort.

The only way onto the platform is the main entrance, the south side exit area, and where fast passes are. Maybe they slipped in through the fast pass area as surely the CMs on duty at the main entrance would have seen them coming around from the south side.

I wonder how much Walt would have charged for a ticket to ride the Innoventions ride. How would he have advertised the ride to make it sound worth a C ticket at least. OK that is a challenge folks. Your job is to sell me on the new Innoventions Platform ride and you will charge it as a C ticket. Bet you cannot do that. :D:

Perhaps they thought it was a ride? ;) :D:
