Hi Team Moustalgia,
Thanks for the great interview with Matt Emerson. I worked in Fantasyland at the same time and remember him getting trained on Storybook. At the time it was only ladies working the ride so it was unusual to have a guy doing the spiel. I was also there when the Dumbo and Skyway incidents happened. This episode brought back lots of memories and crazy, true stories that happened during my time there.
Happy holidays to all of you. Thanks for your dedication to informing and entertaining us Disney fans.
