To win the Exclusive Mickey Lightning McQueen & Minnie Sally Disney resort playmat generously donated by Fiddlehead of Maine, you had to regale us with your Disneyland/World/Resort story … of the best stories, Fiddlehead selected the best of the best and because it’s so hard to pick a specific one, we fired up the ole Random Number Generator – winner – MICKY!

Her story …

“THIS ONE TIME I WAS AT DISNEY …

Let me start with some background info. We were/are big Toy Story/Toy Story 2 fans. We started collection Toy Story toys when the first movie came out and continued right through the second movie (can’t wait for TS3!). As was our routine on our trips to WDW, we always went to Hollywood Studios (then MGM) to check on any new Toy Story toys out and to visit Al’s Toy Barn to wait in line to take pictures with Woody & Buzz, usually the only character there. We were never lucky enough to ever see Bullseye up close and personal, although we were told that he sometimes made a surprise visit to Al’s. As we got to the place in the path where you make a turn and see Al’s, we both screamed out together, Bullseye, Bullseye, Bullseye!!! There he was alone, with only his handler and a Green Army Man for company. No one else, not another living soul was in that area. We ran like two 5 year olds up to him calling his name. Bullseye, we’re so glad to meet you, we said. We loved you in Toy Story 2 LOL.

It was a “magical” moment. One you can only image happening at Disney. We spend about 5 minutes alone with Bullseye, taking pictures and making jokes with him (he didn’t talk back LOL) and his handler.

In all the trips we’re made to WDW since that day, we have never again seen Bullseye (except in a parade) but we will always remember the day we got to spend time with him.

I put photos up on our Flickr pool page. Also, I have to explain. Even though my name is Micky, I’m the one in the pink shirt LOL. Micky is a nickname I picked up while selling shoes at Penney’s during my college days. Yes, the Cars are my collection. I’ve loved cars for as long as I can remember :)
