Disney fans rejoice! On this episode, we’re traveling back to 1991 to discuss an eight month event at Disneyland that people have varying opinions on. If you grew up in the ‘80s or ‘90s, you probably loved it. If you were an adult at the time, there’s a good chance you thought it was cheap and tacky. I’m speaking of Afternoon Avenue, which was a sort of precursor to Mickey’s Toontown, featuring characters that were particularly popular to kids at the time. Characters like Scrooge McDuck, Gruffi Gummi, Gadget, Baloo and so many more were all featured in this temporary land. Joining me to discuss is Modern Mouse Josh who actually got to experience Afternoon Avenue when he was a kid visiting Disneyland. Although I didn’t get to personally experience it at the time, I did get a taste of it when Disneyland recreated it somewhat at Disneyland After Dark: 90s Nite. That and so much more in this episode.
