The Beatles ended at the Poly

Here's a cool little story on how the end of the Beatles came to be at the Polynesian Resort.

Yes, I had read that story before but not in such detail. I think I saw it either on the Tikeman web site or in a guidebook. That was in the days before they started putting all the celebrities at the GF.

Interesting story! The Beatles nut (and obvious Disney nut) in me when "ahhhhh!" when I saw Beatles and Disney in the same sentence. Thanks for sharing!
