Hi everyone!
I had the opportunity to go to my first ESPN The Weekend event, it was really a great time! The theming starts from the time you arrive (below, left) and the stage in front of the sorcerer hat holds a variety of events during the weekend (below, right).
Atlanta Braves catcher Brian McCann shares a car with Minnie (below, left) and Chip and Dale, Goofy, Minnie and Pluto pose with ESPN the Weekend cheerleaders (below, right).
Mike Alstott and Chad Ochocinco answer questions after their motorcade (below, left). Chad Ochocinco sits with Goofy in a motorcade car (below, right).
Pluto puts his arm around Mike Alstott (below, left) while Thurman Thomas poses with Minnie (below, right).
The ESPN Sports Zone (below, left) was one of my favorite spots in the park, with games for guests to play as well as meet-and-greets with athletes. I also enjoyed the location, with a different view of the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror than I am used to having (below, right).
Houston Astros center fielder Michael Bourn smiles as he picks up a golf club in the ESPN Sports Zone (below, left). New York Yankees pitcher CC Sabathia also takes up a golf club as he mingles with guests in the golf tent.
Yankees pitcher Joba Chamberlain joins CC Sabathia in playing some basketball with park guests (below left and right). The kids seemed really excited to be playing with their sports heroes!

We tried to get into Stump the Schwab to see the Yankees, but we narrowly missed getting in (below, left). There was a number of nice items of merchandise for sale as well (below, right).
Bernie Williams is a classically trained guitarist, and played a concert for guests at the end of the night (below, left and right).

Be sure and check out my first new DVD release of 2010, Jeff Lange Remembers: Disneyland’s Light Magic (Includes: One Man’s Dream Show) featuring the often requested “Light Magic” (1997) and the rarely seen on video “One Man’s Dream” stage show (1990)!
Available Now – Latest Release:
Jeff Lange Remembers: Disneyland’s Light Magic (Includes: One Man’s Dream Show)
Jeff Lange brings you vintage footage from two completely different but unique elements of Disneyland history!
Light Magic replaced the popular Main Street Electrical Parade, but ended after only 4 months in 1997. Two different vantage points – from the Small World mall and Main Street USA – give you a complete look at Light Magic!
One Man’s Dream was a beloved stage show that also ran for 4 months in 1990 before making way for Dick Tracy’s Diamond Double Cross. Performed at the Videopolis theater, this show celebrated the remarkable imagination of Walt Disney. This is a show not to be missed!
