The Kungaloosh Society event is at Adventurers Club tonight but last night WDW Radio held an event there too. Here is some news posted on the Disboards website by someone who attended:
Just returned from the event hosted by wdwradio at the AC last night. It was confirmed by the suits in the joint that the AC will NOT be returning in any shape form or fashion.All of the major artifacts will be going to Hong Kong- To settle any rumors of some artifacts already having shipped, it isn't true. Other than the booze and kungaloosh machine, everything is still there. I asked about the replacement Colonel and was told that "EVERYTHING" is still on site and will be shipped as a lot to HK.It was really sad- all of the CMs were teary-eyed throughout the evening.
I met up with one of my sources yesterday who confirmed the huge volume of PI rumors out there lately. Source said that there is prettly reliable information out there that the AC, RRBC and Motion buildings are coming down! Sorry folks, but after many ups and downs, it appears that the future of PI does not include clubs of any kind.

If this is part of the new PI, its time to kill the name Pleasure Island once & for all. Make it all branded as Downtown Disney & don't promote PI anymore as a brand, with the closing of the clubs, its dead now.
R.I.P. Pleasure Island, you will be missed!
Ugh, depressing......like the passing of a good friend.
I told you so! hey BringBackCW PI was dead a year ago! this weekend ;(
Yes & I was very lucky to be able to be there last year a few days before it did close.
Disney does not care about what it's guest or castmembers want or need, they just want more money and if getting rid of PI makes them more money Disney does not give a damn what you think.
>Disney does not give a damn what you think.
This appears to be true. Even if Disney wanted out of the night club business, AC was not a night club. It was a brilliantly conceived show that exceeded all expectations. They could have found a way for it to continue and make more profits for them.
Disney does not care what you think this is why I HATE disney now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and will NOT spend any more of my hard earned money on the FAT RAT!!!! if you could get millons to stop going they would! I wish we could do someting like this but most people love disney they just don't know?
There is already nobody at Pleasure Island. I hope the current tenants get a break on there rent. Universal is thrilled that Disney does not want an adult entertainment area. Guest will spend their drinking dollars at CityWalk. With Disney building the mall on it's west property line, maybe they will add some clubs and not just a GAP and a Children's Place...
Maybe we can buy the AC and the former BET club from Disney. Open the AC as a bar and convert the BET Club into an attached restaurant themed with the AC. Jeckel & Hydes was built after stealing the plans for the AC from Disney. A former Imagineer took many of the gags to build the restaurant in NY. They tried to expand into Florida and Michael Eisner threatened to shut down the whole company if they tried. They did not pursue the project after that. J & H is near Carnagie Hall.
buy AC & BET why????????? Mannequins was there from the start made more money than the whole Island 3 times as much for years and you want AC & BET NOT a good idea!!!!!! Disney could have closed all of the clubs but Mannequins and made more! and more! and more! AC was BORING! could go into any bar and have more fun that place..........
I still say Disney's down fall was when they did the "city walk" idea and let anyone on the island
An 8TRAX type of club would be pretty easy to replicate but Mannequins....WOW....would cost millions to reproduce!
