Win a trip for 4 to the opening of Cars Land and a private Jungle Cruise tour skippered by John Lasseter!
From late 1977 through spring 1978, John Lasseter, before becoming chief creative officer at Walt Disney and Pixar Animation Studios and principal creative advisor for Walt Disney Imagineering, worked at Disneyland, and was a skipper on the Jungle Cruise attraction. Recently, a search for a photo of John skippering the Jungle Cruise came up empty. Surely there must be a photo of Skipper John somewhere? To find one, we have created a contest: the first person to submit a verifiable photo of John as the skipper of the Jungle Cruise from 1977 will win a trip for 4 to the grand opening of Cars Land at Disney California Adventure in summer 2012, and a ride on the Jungle Cruise skippered by none other than John himself! What better way to turn a Disney memory of old into a Disney memory of today?

The script for the Jungle Cruise back then is better than what it is now. Wish I had that picture, but I doubt if I do. That was the year that I went with some kids from my junior high.
I know me too. I tried a picture. Not sure if it was the right one.
