Retired Disneyland rides that you miss

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share

I miss the buckets. I also am dismayed by the demise of Country Bear Jambouree. Even though I never really liked the show that much, it was a “must see” when my dad was alive. (He loved bears.)

Our favorite “bear character” was “Big Al”—the big, morose bear that sang (in the lowest, slowest, saddest voice ever) “There was BLOOOD on the saddle, and BLOOOOD everywhere…” (My dad’s name was “Al”, so he loved “Big Al” too.)

I miss Big Al.

I thought Disneyland shut down the Matterhorn Bobsleds a year or two back. Does anyone know if that’s true or if they are coming back? I loved that ride.

Bobsleds were working fine when I last visited Anaheim in November.

I was at Disneyland September 01 and (happily) the Matterhorn Bobsleds are still running through the mountain.
