Cast Members Only — A Quiz — Answers

Here are the answers to the “Cast Members Only” quiz. I found it interesting that I came across the fewest uniquely themed signs in the Magic Kingdom and none at all in the World Showcase section of Epcot. I’m assuming that the lack of interesting signs in the Magic Kingdom has to do with the age of the park. It’s possible these signs were not common in the ’70’s and the practice of theming “Cast Member Only” signs came about in later years.

I suspect I found no unique signs in World Showcase because it would be nearly impossible to come up with a plaque that would allow cast members access backstage yet deny the general public. For example, a sign that read “Canadians Only” would not forbid access to backstage areas to our northern neighbors.

Anyway, here are the answers to the quiz. I hope you did well.

A.

This sign was found at Casey’s Corner in the Magic Kingdom.

B.

I found this sign in several areas of the Africa section of the Animal Kingdom. However, this particular sign was located near the Harambe Train Station.

C.

The Imagineers seemed to like the “Flight Crew Only” sign as I found it on three different attractions. However, I felt there was enough difference between them that you could figure out their locations. The first “Flight Crew Only” sign was found at Mission Space in Epcot.

D.

This next “Flight Crew Only” sign was found at the new Star Tours attraction at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.

E.

The final “Flight Crew Only” sign is part of the Soarin’ attraction at Epcot.

F.

This one should have been easy. Yes, there are a few other “hotels” within the parks, but Tower of Terror at Disney’s Hollywood Studios was the obvious choice.

G.

This one should have also been somewhat easy. How many attractions would have servants? This sign was found within the Haunted Mansion at the Magic Kingdom.

H.

The cast members who work at the Imagination Pavilion in Epcot are part of the Imagination Institute.

I.

Inside the shop of the Rock ‘N’ Roller Coaster you’ll find this sign keeping the Aerosmith audience from venturing backstage.

J.

I actually found two different signs on the Dinosaur attraction at Disney’s Animal Kingdom. The second sign read “Funded Research Staff Only” and it did not display the Dino Institute logo.

K.

This sign can be found in the outdoor seating area behind the Yak & Yeti Restaurant at Disney’s Animal Kingdom. I was hoping the Southeast Asian font at the bottom of the plaque would clue you into its location.

L.

I think it was pretty obvious that this sign was taken at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. But the real challenge was to figure out where, within the Studio it can be found. It was taken at the Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular Show.

M.

This very “official” sign posted by Pork Security can be found all around the Muppet*Vision 3D attraction at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.

N.

There are several trains at Walt Disney World. But this sign can be found near the exit of Expedition Everest at Disney’s Animal Kingdom.

O.

Once again, I think this one was pretty easy. This sign can be found on a gate leading to the backstage area of Stitch’s Great Escape.

P.

If you remembered that the Pangani Forest Conservation School and Wildlife Sanctuary is located in the Africa section of the Animal Kingdom, you might have been able to figure out that this sign can be found on the Pangani Forest Exploration Trail.

Q.

This one was difficult. If you were able to figure out the reference to Monster’s Inc. you would probably think of the Laugh Floor at the Magic Kingdom. But these signs can be found at Disney’s Hollywood Studios in the back lot area for a Monster’s Inc. photo op.

R.

This one was a gimme. Where else could this sign be located other than Camp Minnie-Mickey at Disney’s Animal Kingdom.

S.

This sign can be found at the Main Street Bakery in the Magic Kingdom.

T.

This sign really didn’t offer too many clues. If you guessed anywhere in the Animal Kingdom, I would give you credit. But to be specific, it was taken inside the shop located in Chester and Hester’s Dinorama in the Animal Kingdom.

U.

Although a similar sign as the one above, this one does offer a clue. Once again, the Southeast Asian font should have told you it was located someplace in Asia in the Animal Kingdom. Specifically, this sign can be found on the restrooms located on the pathway to Expedition Everest.

V.

I can think of several places where this sign might be appropriate, but I found it on a door leading into the kitchen of the Columbia Harbour House at the Magic Kingdom.

W.

I was hoping that the blue coloring of the sign would help you figure out that this plaque can be found at the Sea with Nemo and Friends in Epcot.

X.

These two signs stop guests from entering the backstage area of Test Track at Epcot.

Y.

Before Tusker House at the Animal Kingdom was converted to a buffet, this door would be used to enter or exit the restaurant. Now guests are restricted from entering this establishment via this doorway.

Z.

This “Closed” sign can be found on an out-of-the way door next to the Ziwani Traders in the Africa section of the Animal Kingdom.
