From the Tickle Trunk – Disney Clubs

Posted on by Gary Cruise
Are you a member of D23? To the best of my knowledge, it is the only “official” fan club, organized by Disney, in operation today. But D23 has had several ancestors over the years . . . and those old clubs are what I’ll describe briefly in this blog. I’ll be using plenty of scanned … Continue reading "From the Tickle Trunk – Disney Clubs"

D23 Expo 2013 – Day 3

Posted on by Laura Gilbreath
Sunday was a much less busy day than Friday and Saturday had been, at least in the various sessions. I don't think any of them filled up - I know for a fact that the two Arena presentations and all of the Imagineering sessions still had room for people to walk in. The exhibit floor was busy, but not as crowded as Saturday. I had a chance to go through the new Tomorrowland exhibit, which had opened the previous afternoon. It contains "artifacts" from the supposed "1952" box. Bizarre, and since I didn't see the Disney Studios presentation I didn't really get it.

D23 Expo 2013 – Day 2

Posted on by Laura Gilbreath
Another pretty good day at D23 for me. Today was sold out, and it was a LOT busier - the show floor was quite crowded after 11:00 or so. The biggest frustration I heard was how long it took just to get into the building, though - 60-90 minutes for those who arrived in the 8:30-9:30 range (doors opened at 9:00 for D23 members).

D23 Expo 2013 – Day 1

Posted on by Laura Gilbreath
It's the end of day 1 of the 2013 D23 Expo, and I am very happy to report that overall it was a pretty good day. I can honestly say that I had a good time, and am far less frazzled than I have ever been after an Expo day. Not that everything is perfect, but those of you who have read my blogs on previous D23 Expos know how frustrating I've found them in the past. D23 seems to have finally learned a few things this time around and made some improvements to reduce the frustration level.
