Hrm, according to an inflation calculator, which bases it off of the real inflation rate, a ticket that cost 18$ in 1983 SHOULD cost 38.20$ in 2007 dollars. Somehow, I think prices have gone up by more than inflation! :eek:

That's just nuts. I seem to remember Michael Eisner once saying something like, we'll just keep raising the price to see when people stop coming. People never did! :eek:

But in 1983 all there was were MK (without Toontown) and Epcot (without Morocco or Norway), as well as the Marketplace, golf courses, and four hotels.
