    Looks like someone felt these were sporty at one time - can't imagine anyone in sports playing in these nowadays.

    Where precisely are these smelly old things?

    The obvious would be Casey's Corner, or perhaps the sporting clothing shop (uhh I know DL has one on Main St), but WAI usually isn't obvious.

    I see carpet in the reflection, and while I was going to say UK, that isn't a cricket bat.

    You're right...

    It's not the obvious. ; ;) ; Not at Casey's Corner, or a clothing shop.

    How about the lobby or food court of All-Star Sports Resort?

    wait, maybe the Backlot Tour. ; They could be the shoes and bat from "The Natural" or "Field of Dreams".

    No on both counts above. ; Actually, things are getting cooler. ; Earlier guesses were warmer than these!

    Yeah, Craig, Boardwalk. ; ESPN Club seems apropos.

    Good try. ; Alas, still cold! ; I will confirm this - it is in one of the 4 main theme parks, not at a resort!

    I think the carpet you are seeing is not a reflection, but rather the actual carpet inside the window and it is partially blotted out by the reflection of Craig taking the picture from outside the window. You can also see the tip of the pennant hanging to the right of the shoes. I am certain this is in MK, but since the Sport Clothing shop just before Casey's has been shot down, I am not quite sure of where else in MK this could be located. There is also a reflection of something just to the right of Craig, between the pennant & the shelf. I think this has to be one of the shop windows on Main Street.

    Good analysis of the shot Leo. ; Though the reflection is Justin's...not Craig's. ; :)

    You are definitely warming things up! ; But you haven't quite scouted out the location yet.

    If it's not Main Street, it has to be Frontierland. ; But I'm not thinking that's right....kind of the perfect timing for it to show up, but perhaps the Exposition Hall?

    The carpet appears to match.

    Re: They PLAYED in these!? Where are they?

    Nope...still burning hot...you were in the right building - I'd say you got this one...I was just wondering if you (or anyone) knows where in the Hall this can be found. ; You get credit for the solve, either way!

    As you step inside the Hall, you go through the camera shop, and past the Tony's desk. ; To the right are the photographic exhibitions, and farther back and right, the entrance to the theater. ; To the left, across from the theater entrance, is a rather strange photo exhibition which includes a few cameras along with some Boy and Girl Scout stuff, and very old baseball artifacts. ; I can't say I know why - I was breezing through looking for ideas for WAI. ; I suppose it had something to do with sports and photography. ; It's all the way near the back, where they have little tables and chairs you can chill at. ; Here's a wider shot:

    Congrats Rog! ; Good work whittling that one down!
