This past weekend marked the closing of Pleasure Island, and my particular favorite attraction, The Adventurers Club. As much as I'm against this move by Disney, I understand the reason for adding more dining. Disney dining is a popular thing to do when vacationing with the mouse.
If you're as big of an Adventurers Club fan as I am, I encourage you to read the tribute by one of the opening year cast members who then worked the show for another 17 years, Kris Truelsen.
Here are some cool facts:
- Tim Goodwin invented the word “Kungaloosh.” Talk about leaving a legacy.
- Three original cast members invented the Club salute.
- Phil Card invented the New Member Ceremony.
- There is no apostrophe in "Adventurers Club."
- Colonel Critchlow Suchbench’s name is misspelled on the brass plaque in the Main Salon listing
members.
Read the tribute here.
