Heh, sorry there. I thought the 'lugnet.legoland.california,
lugnet.events.brickswest' newsgroups woulda tipped it off.
And at least to me, this is a major event for Legoland. Their version of
Washington DC was the first images I saw from inside the park when they were
getting ready to open. It was also one of the most used images in their
promo material. And for them to totally remove a entire city is pretty major
news for them.
Hope no trips to the ER were made as a result in reading the title :)
