Grab your rum, strike yer colors, and set sail with us on a swashbuckling voyage to a time when Pirates ruled the seas as Tandy walks us through her favorite ride.

Show Notes:

  • Here is the link to the 1968 episode of Disney's Wonderful World of Color that we mention in the episode
  • Tandy asked for a candle and while Disney is still not selling them (HUGE mistake), we were able to find a Pirate's candle here for those of you interested (Tandy does not endorse this candle as it is not made by Disney).
  • The “Boring Stuff” that Jess makes Tandy include (Disney World only via Thrill-data.com):
    • Ride Length: 8.5 Minutes
    • Average Wait Time: 32 Minutes
  • This ride is an Emotional Rope Drop Decision (ERDD) Ride, and Tandy would totally make an ERDD on it.
  • Tandy referred to the system used in Pirates as the Bateux, but that is the boat. The system is the Flume System.

Our thoughts on Pirates of the Caribbean:

This is a top ride at any park and is a 10/10 in our book. That said, we would not use Genie+ on this and certainly not purchase Genie+ for this ride. Bottom line: Go on this ride, enjoy the queue, smell all of the wonderful smells and enjoy!
