Why did Rolly Crump add a Gypsy Camp to Mr. Toad's Wild Ride?
In this episode of Distory, we continue motoring through track A of Walt Disney World’s extinct Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride attraction. As we crash through the kitchen window, we head out into the woods to explore some Rolly Crump posters foreshadowing the camp around the corner. After Kirk does some palm reading and tells Kate’s fortune, we do a deep dive into Romani culture and history in order to understand what this unique scene is all about, and why Rolly Crump chose to put it in this attraction. Kirk gets excited about some wagons, Kate teaches us about what instruments should (and should not) be in this scene, and we find a few familiar characters before coming to a screeching halt just before we slam into a sideways caravan door into next scene.
Note: We know that “Gypsy” is a derogatory term for the Romani people, but it is historically accurate to this scene as that is how it is described on the 1971 blueprints and layout. So, for the sake of historical accuracy, we do use this terminology in this episode.
