- Finally today, sad news, indeed…We reported this rumor quite a long time ago, but now it’s come sadly true. Indeed, bad news for Brodie fans all over the world:
ORLANDO, Fla. (Reuters) – Walt Disney World has been targeted by Southern Baptists, animal-rights activists and anti-homosexual groups, but the biggest protests have come from fans of Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride, which Disney officials said Wednesday would soon join the ash heap of history. One of the Walt Disney Co.’s worst-kept secrets has been its plan to scrap the 27-year-old Fantasyland ride in favor of one featuring Winnie the Pooh. Disney officials confirmed Mr. Toad would be closed next Monday. Many of the ride’s fans, who have picketed the park weekly since the rumor of Mr. Toad’s demise last April, consider the ride a treasured memory of childhood that they enjoyed revisiting as adults.
