Ok so...A look back, Disney Style!

It’s the summer of 1973.

You’ve been reading your Walt Disney World Spring/Summer 1973 Information Guide. There are great attractions in each land of the Magic Kingdom.

Before you can enter the park, you need to decide what kind of admission to buy. You could just buy a General Admission ticket:

— GENERAL ADMISSION ONLY —
ADULT$4.50
JUNIOR (12 thru 17)$3.50
CHILD (3 thru 11)$1.50
Walt Disney World General Admission includes use for one day of the transportation systems (Monorails. ferryboats, and trams), admission to “Magic Kingdom” Theme Park and all free shows, exhibits, and entertainment.

A General Admission could work out well if you already have a pocket full of unused attraction tickets from earlier visits. But you probably don’t because the park is less that two years old. And even if you do, the tickets in your pocket are probably just “A” and “B” tickets—not the valuable “E” tickets that you need for the best attractions, such as the 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea submarine ride and The Hall of Presidents.

Because I grew up in Los Angeles, we spent tons TONS of time at Disneyland. We were recently talking to my mom about coming down with the kids and doing Disney.. she asked how much the tickets were now and I'm pretty sure she had a mini stroke when I told her.
