Disney4me Posted June 6 Report Posted June 6 You won’t believe who we just saw at EPCOT! EPCOT We were recently at EPCOT, enjoying our day at the park, when the most unexpected thing happened. We’re willing to bet you won’t be able to guess what it was! Check out who we ran into at EPCOT… Country Bears at EPCOT? …it’s the Country Bears from Country Bear Jamboree in Magic Kingdom! They’re a long way from their home in Frontierland, and seeing them in EPCOT felt a little strange. EPCOT is known for having Character Paloozas, which are where there are groups of random characters out and about learning how to interact with guests and play in Disney World. Big Al is at EPCOT! The Country Bears were walking around World Showcase and hanging out with guests. Hey, we guess the Country Bears are allowed to enjoy touring around the world, since they never really get to leave the den. We met Wendell, Big Al, and Romeo McGrowl. Look who’s here! It was so fun to see the Country Bears at EPCOT, but we know you’re all asking the same question — why are they there? Well, we actually saw lots of Character Attendant Cast Members with a red “Earning My Ears” banner under their name tag. If you’ve ever seen a Disney World Cast Member with on their name tag, it means they’re training. EPCOT We love seeing Cast Members and characters getting a chance to train on the job, and we’re always down for meeting some more characters and filling our autograph books. Daisy These character appearances that have lots of them just come out to meet guests are never scheduled or planned. They can pop up at the International Gateway or the World Showcase on training days to help Cast Members practice before they start working at an official meet-and-greet. They can also pop up all around Disney World, which explains why the Country Bears are so far from home! So fun! The agents at Small World Vacations know how to save money on your Disney Vacation!
