139. Scandalizing Mr. Toad: The Shocking Designs Choices of WDW's Mr. Toad's Wild Ride - Track A - Mr. Toad Part 13
Description
What artwork appeared in WDW’s Mr. Toad that would NEVER be in a Disney ride today?
In this episode of Distory, we head back to Walt Disney World’s extinct Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride attraction to finish motoring through Track A. After going the wrong way down a one way street, we spend some time meeting the inhabitants of Town Square (and discovering some borrowed lamps along the way). Kirk teaches us how to mount a penny-farthing and Kate shares some heartwarming stories of Alice and Marc Davis before we pop on into Winky’s pub to discover some shocking artwork and a few design flaws. After discovering another Disney blunder in the Keg Room, we dash our way through the Rain Room and get hit by a train before descending into the hot place, where Kate shows some old Bruce Bushman concepts to explain a missing scene that no one ever talks about in Disney history.
