I just assumed they were dressed up for the Bday lol :) Dapper Day makes sense.

Oh and did I forget that today was Dapper Day too?!

We were there today. It was fun to see all of the people (young and old) in their 1950’s outfits. It made it very festive.

I was there tonight. Nothing special other than a vocal dedication.

Apologies for the vertical orientation.

According to Twitter and Periscope, HEA was dedicated to Mickey for his Birthday...I think that was it, No one's streaming HEA tonight. 1 did, but only up to Hunchback. Hopefully Mickey will get a tag next year!

There was Alice and Julius before Oswald.

Did they close Mermaid? Had the best hidden Mickey that only showed on his b-day. Maybe next year?

I'm gonna be able to wear two birthday buttons tomorrow. So glad to share my birthday with the McMouse.

Exactly! If we don't see a improvement next year like an actual tag for HEA or something before or during MVMCP if its a party night, then we can be mad! Disney really doesn't go big with birthdays that doesn't end with 5 or 0. TDL used to go big every year for Mickey but I think that ended in 1993.

True, I'll give them that. Now, if next year they try this same thing, get out the pitchforks and torches. :D
