EXPLOSION AT DISNEYLAND!!!

[captain_slinky]

Yes, I heard about the explosion in Disneyland today. No official word, but authorities are seeking one Wyle E. Coyote as a "Person Of Interest" in the case...

Actually, it was just a water bottle full of dry ice that started leaking. Still, fun story :)

But why did someone have a bottle with dry ice, if not to purposely cause something like that? Hmm.

Ooh, looks like they arrested an employee for TWO dry ice explosions.

It sounds a lot like a traditional Disneyland Last Day Prank. There's a long standing tradition of trying to become immortal through doing something crazy on your last day, such as the Jungle Cruise Guide who jumped off his boat and in to the water with a plastic knife to wrestle the animatronic hippo :) Another guy, in charge of moving a skiff in to place for Fantasmic, got up and danced with all the characters while in his underwear. A driver of the raft to Tom Sawyer's Island, usually a 3-minute trip at the most, took an entire raft full of guests "hostage" and drove them all the way around the island!

This guy probably thought he'd make a big mystery noise that couldn't really harm anybody, then let himself get "fired" on his last day.
