fishiness aside, it sounds like a really cool experience from the description but having people around you is half the experience

I heard that they were escorted by 1,000 Cast Members and media.

Sure, they got the park all to themselves.....and a thousand other people.

Reminds me of the offer from the back of a cereal box....Free! Just send in 4.95 for S&H!

Also, I'm not sure this "Grand Prize" had anything to do with the Million Dreams promo.

Sounds like a cheap promotion for the park. I'm not sure I understand why this is the "grand prize." The article doesn't even say if the rides were open.

I think that is Wendy (kneeling) from Peter Pan.

With all due disrespect to the apologist O.P, I offer this quote from the link:

Hmm, ML, do you owe me a churro for my wild, outlandish guess that the big winners would be cute nuclear families, with nary a single mom in sight, much less a nose-pierced, tattooed lesbian?

Meanwhile, on the other coast where the shamelessly RIGGED stunt is not happening, Disneyland is so far getting a black eye from the fan community for it's stunning Dreams Come True of table service at Pizza Port and reserved seats at the last-minute, walk-up section of Fantasmic.

So far, year-of-a-million ripoffs is going .... hmm, exactly as I predicted. Insuting gifts given to the masses, and rigged grand prizes going to Mr. and Mrs. Cleaver, Wally and the Beav.

Well, at least I got a smirk from seeing all the DisneyParks merchandise already on the shelves at Company D.
