1 minute read

Disney’s Pop Century Resort at Walt Disney World features 20th century pop culture icons. Here’s a look at some of those symbols:

The bowling pin tower is more than 65 feet high. A regulation pin is 15 inches tall.
The giant Rubik’s Cube reaches 41 feet off the ground. Compared to the 4-inch high toy.
The 8-track tapes are more than 35 feet tall. A real 8-track is 5 1/4 inch tall.
The table soccer players are more than 12 feet tall.
The giant Big Wheel icon can “accommodate” a child rider that weighs up to 877 pounds (or so says the sticker on the towering riding toy).
In the 1960s area, giant “thumbprints” can be spotted on the ears of the elephant peeking out of the giant Play-Doh canister. And can you name the child depicted on the Play-Doh can? That’s Play-Doh Pete!
