Disney's Double Secret New Race
Disney has a new race! What is it? I don't know. Who is eligible? I don't know. Similarity to Abbott & Costello comedy routines aside, Disney is using social media to turn an announcement into a game. Robert Mathis has the clues. Has he solved the puzzle?
Your guess is...
Disney has a new race coming, but they are painfully playing with the runners by giving clues to the race and where it will be held. For the first time ever, Disney is posting clues on Facebook rather than simply making an announcement.
To join the 'fun', you have to like Disney on Facebook.
The Clues
The first clue is:
Fantasia/Dumbo
Dumbo:Tangled
Any guess?
The second clue is:
Enter
24 25
Any guess yet?
The third is a image of a teapot with a crack and a white dove coming out of its spout.
Got the answer?
The Buzz
These clues are perplexing millions of loyal Disney runners. People are guessing races of all lengths and of all types at different Disney Parks. The Mouse has found a fun new way to add excitement about an upcoming race other than a press release. This looks to be one of the methods by which Disney will use social media networks as promotional tools.
My guess is another Princess Race but this one in Disneyland. We will soon find out. Looks like I will have to adjust my travel plans next year once I know for sure!
