[Fun] 1980s E-Tickets: Which of these rides is the least deserving of the "E" designation?

[PiecesOfEight]

As far as I can tell, the last "E" tickets made were for the following attractions:

Bear Country Jamboree
Enchanted Tiki Room
Haunted Mansion
It's A Small World
Jungle Cruise
Matterhorn Bobsleds
Monorail
Pirates Of The Caribbean
Space Mountain
Submarine Voyage

Which of these is the least deserving of the "E" designation?

Monorail

I vote Monorail. It's certainly a neat experience (especially if you get a ride at the very front of it), but I wouldn't consider it an E-ticket experience.

For those who remember the ticket books for the 1960's, the monorail was a D ticket.

Wow...the monorail is running away with it!

Maybe I should have said "except the monorail, which attraction is least deserving of an E ticket designation"!

From what I can tell, the Monorail required an E ticket the entire time tickets were collected for it (1959-1980), while the Disneyland Railroad required a D ticket from 1956-1958, then an E ticket from 1959-1966 then back to the D from 1967 to 1980.

My personal opinion would be that all the attractions in this poll were, at the time they were introduced, worthy of an E ticket. My least favorite on the list was Country Bear Jamboree, but that's because I was just a kid and not into country music.

Exactly. Judging the worth of half century old Disneyland E tickets from the perspective of the present is an exercise in temporal chauvinism. That's like asking Disneyland fans in 1959 to judge the worth of amusement park tickets from 1906.

It's just supposed to be a convival query.

We're tossing around fancy phrases like some imperious predatory dowager.
