We were evacuated a few years back from Pirates. It was really cool. It broke down just feet from the exit, right by the jail/dog with keys scene. Here's what we had to watch for about 20 minutes.
They ended up putting people in the water with giant waders, and pushed all the boats backwards two scenes to the first fire scene. They off-loaded us from the boats and we had to go through the back of the attraction and then wander through the backstage for a while to come back out around the side of the ride. We got a FP for our trouble. Definitely a fun experience, except that it probably took about 45 minutes of lost time and the ride was down the rest of the day.
Quick question for you - Homecomin' versus Edison. We are planning our October couple-only getaway and while we are mostly targeting Food and Wine we don't want to go near Epcot Saturday night, so we were thinking of either eating a late dinner at Homecomin' and then heading to Edison for the late-night entertainment, OR just going directly to the Edison. I've generally heard better things about Art Smith's place, so I'm leaning towards that, but there's a few things at Edison that sound intriguing, if pricey. Homecomin' also takes TIW and Edison doesn't, so that also factors in that Homecomin' would get 20% off. DS is so not our thing anymore, but the Edison tempts me. (I could care less about shopping, and there are plenty of restaurants around property without the PITA of a trip to DS.)
