Round 1 Game 17: Vote for your Favorites in the KtP Attraction Tournament

Vote for your favorite Walt Disney World attractions in our first ever Walt Disney World Attractions Tournament! We are voting on Walt Disney World “thrill” attractions now, so come cast your vote and see which attraction won yesterday!

The Crew had so much fun with the KennythePirate Character Tournament, we’re starting another one!  This time, we’ll vote each day to narrow down our favorite Walt Disney World attractions.  In the championship, we’ll decide on the ultimate Disney World attraction!

Here’s how it works:

Every day at approximately 12:00 pm EST we will post two attractions for you to vote on. The link will be sent to Twitter, Facebook (both the official page and Crew group), and your email if you are a subscriber. We will work through 4 categories of attractions:

• Classic Rides
• Family Rides
• “Thrill” Rides
• Shows

The poll will be closed at 6:00 am EST the following day.

Once we work through the first round in all 4 categories, the winners will advance on to the next round. We will continue this until we have a winner!

Make sure you are on the lookout for this post each day, and vote using the poll in the post!

This tournament will be played similar to March Madness. Let’s call it “summer madness!”

Be sure to check out Kenny’s Character Locator for detailed information on attractions and so much more!  

The Attraction Tournament Bracket

Here are the attractions we will be voting for during this tournament.  You’ve got some tough choices ahead of you!

Some attractions fit in more than one category, so we selected what we felt was the most appropriate category.

Yesterday’s Results

Yesterday was so hard for me to choose! I love both shows, but Beauty and the Beast Live on Stage is my favorite. However, Frozen Sing-Along was the winner!

Walt Disney World “Thrill” Attractions

We’re moving on to round 3!  The third round features Walt Disney World “thrill” attractions.  

How did we define “thrill” attractions?  When most people think of these attractions, they think of rides that are terrifying and get your heart pumping!  However, the simplest definition of a thrilling attraction is: “an amusement attraction that is very exciting.” 

Not many of Walt Disney World’s attractions are “thrill” attractions in the sense that they are terrifying, (although some can be!), but Walt Disney World does have many that are very exciting! 

Warning: this category will be a challenge!  There are so many loved attractions here, and unfortunately, all but one will need to be eliminated.

Round 1 Game 17

We are starting off Round 3 with an incredibly hard challenge! Which mountain is a bigger thrill, Big Thunder Railroad Mountain or Space Mountain?

Big Thunder Railroad Mountain

Howdy partners! Ready for a ride on Big Thunder Railroad Mountain? If any of you folks are wearin’ hats and glasses best remove ’em, ’cause this here’s the wildest ride in the wilderness!

Big Thunder Mountain Railroad is an iconic roller coaster at Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom. Since there are versions of this ride in Disney Parks all over the world, you have lots of opportunities to experience this wild ride!

My family absolutely loves Big Thunder Mountain Railroad. To us, no trip to Magic Kingdom is complete without experiencing it at least once, but more likely several times!

We all agree that as much as we love this roller coaster during the day, the experience is even better at night! A family tradition of ours is to race over to Big Thunder after viewing Happily Ever After.

Check out this virtual “ride along” for an at home ride through the wilderness!

Space Mountain

Space Mountain is an indoor roller coaster designed to have you feel as though you are blasting off into outer space, and zooming around in a rocket!

Fly past shooting stars, and drop down into complete darkness on this out of this world adventure!

KtP writer Rebecca wrote a fantastic social story to help children with autism or any young child who might be frightened to ride!

Which is your favorite?  Cast your vote now!

We’d love to hear which attraction tops your list!  Let us know who you voted for on Kenny the Pirate’s Facebook Page, or join our crew and tell us there!
