I would like to take this moment to thank you for saving me from being roasted on a spit by frenzied Disneyland fans.
Having taken on the task of researching Bambi in the park, I told some people that Thumper is an occasional walk-around at the Disneyland Resort particularly at Easter. I knew I'd seen them in my youth at WDW, and I remembered seeing a picture somewhere (though I couldn't remember where) of a Disneyland Easter that offered the twee twitterpated one as guest of honor at a buffet.
"You're full of it!" my counterparts brayed, and looked at me with mad buggy eyes as though they were something we'd ride past in an oversized caterpillar.
But I promised them I'd show them photographic evidence, and as soon as I got home I hopped on google. And what was the fourth link for "thumper, disneyland" but colddeadfish.net! cstephens-- I read her photographic reviews all the time!
And lo and behold, there it was. An image of Thumper at an Easter buffet. Thank you, Ms. Stephens, for always supplying me with interesting dawdling material, and for unknowingly backing up my story!
