Imagine stepping into Disneyland using a ticket that’s nearly four decades old! In an enchanting tale shared by ABC7LA, one young guest did just that. Sabrina King, an 18-year-old Disney fan, walked through the gates of Disneyland Park with a blue passport ticket from 1985, handed down to her by her father, Scott King.
Back in 1985, Scott King visited Disneyland during its 30th anniversary celebration, where every 30th guest could win a special prize. Scott not only got to experience the magic of the park but also won an extra special memento—a free ticket and an “I’m a Winner!” badge. Cherishing this magical moment, Scott stored the ticket and badge away in a scrapbook for nearly 40 years.
Fast forward to today, when Sabrina expressed her desire to visit Disneyland with her boyfriend, Scott rediscovered the vintage ticket in their garage. Though the ticket had no expiration date, it was still a gamble to see if it would be honored. Thankfully, Disneyland’s Cast Members verified the ticket’s validity, allowing Sabrina to experience the park just as her father did years ago.
This heartwarming story isn’t just about a ticket; it’s about the timeless magic and memories that Disneyland offers to its visitors. If you have an old, unused Disney ticket, it might be worth checking its status. With current one-day ticket prices ranging from $104 to $194, a vintage ticket could save you a fair amount of money. Back in 1985, admissions were a mere $16.50!
