Re: Segway at Disneyland Innoventions

If you ask me, it needs to be standing up in a glass case right in the middle of the floor where you can walk all around it. It needs big signs explaining the idea of it changing the future of urban transportation. Every employee in the Innoventions Hall should be riding one. The Segway is probably the single most fitting thing for the Innoventions Hall, although by the poor display, it appears like must have been a struggle to even get Disney to agree to put the thing in there. What is going on?
Innoventions' second floor used to house a permanent Segway exhibit that allowed visitors to ride the HT around an obstacle course. It was removed in 2005.

It wasn't a struggle to get it there at all, I'd imagine, as the folks at Disney were among the first to know what "Ginger" really was.
