Grad Nite - 1977

The Grad from 1977 that held this ticket was insanely lucky; their Grad Nite was on the opening day of Space Mountain! May 27, 1977 was the official grand opening of Space Mountain, as if that wasn’t enough; Disneyland had Grad Nite activity's that day too!






Major, I’m sorry but you can’t wear your turtleneck with sports coat tonight, even with your distinguished pipe.





There's a certain blogger out there (he has some stuff from the park) that just happens to have the Grad Nite 1977 Program - maybe if we ask nice he'll scan it for us... Pretty Please...

Don't you hate those scrap books with the sticky pages? They ruin everything. I have more destroyed photos...

I always wear a tuxedo to Disneyland anyway, so the dress code is no problemo.

I regularly visit your blog.
Keep on challenging!

Major, when you dress like that, everyone else is underdressed.

There were 3 major bands that night: KC & the Sunshine Band, Starbuck, and Flash Cadillac.

Grad Night 77 was nice; I was there with the rest of the Grad 77 all over Florida. KC and Sunshine Band was the featured band and Walt Disney had the music playing in speakers around the Magic Kingdom. So as you toured Disney you could hear the music surround sound. The weather was perfect. Disney's night-lighting also set the mood to magical.
