Also, the whatchamohoozit at Dumbo is a real-for-real pipe and percussion musical instrument, not a fake one with sound coming out of it.
My best two guesses. |

| FerretAfros Fri 12/23/2005 12:08p | It's the fountain in Mr. Toad. I never actually noticed it until I was specifically looking for it on my last trip.
Your turn! |

| monorailblue Fri 12/23/2005 10:22p | Argh. Note to self: always have a question in mind before guessing, in case you are right.
OK. What bank had an actual branch inside Disneyland for, what, about 40 years or so? |

| trekkeruss Sat 12/24/2005 12:46a | That would be the Bank of America, which went away in 1993. It was where the AP processing center is now. |

| monorailblue Sat 12/24/2005 3:16p | Good job. That's the one. BofA also hosted "it's a small world" for a very long time before Mattel did. |

| trekkeruss Sat 12/24/2005 3:28p | What was the first attraction to be dubbed having Audio-Animatronic figures? |

| FerretAfros Sat 12/24/2005 7:44p | The Enchanted Tiki Room? |
560
| trekkeruss Sat 12/24/2005 9:19p | No. It's a trick question. While the Tiki Room was the first attraction to be credited as the first, another source said this attraction had AA's, before the Tiki Room was open. |
