browntimmy:WhippingBoi: Those things are going for $100,000+ right now on eBay.
Who's the idiot now?
Link to ebay from the article shows them going for $100-200. I guess if you value a whole day's worth of your time at $0 it makes financial sense.
I'd lined up for midnight album releases in Chicago in the dead of winter and had a good time just hanging out with people who were the same brand of nerd I was. Even if they were there for the wrong band.

sure if you're an asshole that wants the physical bucket.
what I've got is an NFT of that hard to find bucket, surrounded by the stuffed Disney characters of your choosing. Completely custom and available for $487,000.
You can make it the background on your phone and always have it with you to show when you (a childless adult) start talking about Disney unprompted at work.
This truly is the Idiocracy we are living in. Adults waiting 7 hours for a bucket at an amusement park for a children's ride. Adults buying Pokemon cards, adults Twitch streaming children's games, and adults dressing up like children for NerdFest.
We will soon be patting on the head a 35 year old who wants to get married and go to a bar to celebrate by saying "aww thats cute, when you grow up to become an adult you can do that".

If you want to go cheap, this guy is selling a drawing his daughter did of what the buckets look like: https://www.ebay.com/itm/275113881597?hash=item400e10affd:g:3DQAAOSw5Flh4jdY
I think he's donating any proceeds to Habitat for Humanity, and is upfront about just what you're getting. Good on him.
SunTzuX:Modified Cornstarch: Figment was awesome. I loved that Imagination ride. Went back in 2000 and it was gone. Only saw one mural that had Figment in it.
It was there when we went in 2020, just a few weeks before Covid shut everything down.
So, wifey and I went to Disney World for our honeymoon nearly 15 years ago, all the way from Japan. Wifey is Japanese and as such is obsessed with Disney (she used to work at Tokyo Disney: Haunted Mansion, then Aquatopia). Anyhow, we spent 4 days in the parks in Orlando, and took like a million pictures... the only one where my smile is absolutely genuine (which wifey calls me out on anytime it shows up) is with the two of us and Figment. I swear I felt 8 years old again.

I have no idea why, but Figment was my favorite character to see at the park. I'm sure I look just as happy in the pics we took when we found him roaming Epcot.
I would get this shirt every time we went. Wore the hell out of it.

Yeah I'm sure you're curing cancer and writing operas in your spare time

Have you ever paid attention to the plots in opera? Utterly ridiculous. There's a reason they picked the term "soap opera" when they made those TV shows.
FarkerMcFarkface:Spend $150+ for parking and an entry ticket, seven hours of your time, plus $25 for the bucket to resell it for a few hundred dollars. That makes perfect financial sense.

Fark if I know. All we have is footage of people so fat they need to use a scooter to "stand" in line.

Yea. The millions of people that care will be telling other people. Then you get a reputation as a tacky person that you never overcome.
