Cast Member Shenanigans, Summer of '82 Pt. 2



Today's cast member shenanigans take place amongst the crew of Space Mountain, located in Tomorrowland. Is this one asking you to pull his finger?

This gal looks like she's attempting to point to the exit, using the famous sign language of flight attendants everywhere.



Is she actually putting her leg up on the railing? Oh my...



The rest of these look like they were taken in a break room:







Meet Mark.



I don't think Mark wanted his picture taken.



Now we know why. Zzzzzzz...



Here's Patrick. The first pregnant male cast member at Disneyland. Any of my readers ever see the turkey, "Rabbit Test" with Billy Crystal?



Meet Malou; she sure has a pretty smile.



"Hello? No...this isn't Rocket to the Moon. It's Space Mountain."



It's quittin' time at Tara, and this cast member is going home!

  1. Awesome photos! Space Mt before those stupid control gates!

    Hey, I paid to see "Rabbit Test" took my first "date" to see it at "Theeee Movies" in Tarzana, one of the worst movies ever - on the plus side I met Chuck Norris at the concession stand...

  2. From the orange-and-white cast member costumes to the glowing orange geodesic sphere inside Space Mountain and orange bricked terraces of the Space Place restaurant, I loved the 70s orange accents throughout Space Mountain '77.

    Dave, these are great pics of the CM staff. Though 'after my time', it still reflects the atmosphere of the shared fun and enthusiasm that I experienced. I worked with Malou back in the 70's in Adventure/Frontierland. I recognized her immediately without reading your caption. I suppose she has retired from Disney by now. Those were the days when you could make being a ride operator a career. KS

    I'm pretty sure Malou is still at DLR and is working in Resort Transportation & Parking now.
