That's right. It's such a momentous occasion I had to share it on micechat. 
So I'd never been evacuated from a ride before, not counting little things before the ride even starts.. Earlier in the day I was on Soarin, the upper hangars came down and we heard "Soarin to tower you are clear for takeoff" and then they popped right back up and all the house lights came on. It broke! So we got moved to the other theater.
But it wasn't a true evac. I lamented at how I was so close to getting stuck on a ride mid-ride and possibly taken off of it without them resetting it.
And then we were on Indy. Things were great, the door room worked, we went through the temple and had just run through the log full of rats and then bam we stop.. and we chug in place.. Indy's really an interesting ride to get stuck on. Your jeep just sits there going crazy and bucking like a bull anyways. And then the house lights come on. And we still sit bucking for a while. All the sounds are off and I can see all the wiring and speakers and electrical boxes and even the jeep behind us bucking around. We were there a long time and they came on with several announcements to stay seated. And then a few such as "please keep both of your feet on the ground at all times as your jeep may start automatically." woah.. heh
But then I lamented because the lights went back off, the sound effects immediately kicked in, the fog filled, the rats reappeared, our jeep flooded the ignition and we were off to the indy score again. We go 50 yards and get the darts flung at us, and stop again.. Okay it's backed up still from the stoppage. We turn the corner, go to the boulder... Uh ohhhh here it comes.... hmm boulder's coming but the wall's not moving. Lights on! The jeep keeps bucking in place and the boulder rolls its way back into a lit electrical room that I can see perfectly. And then they walk up to us and say we're getting evaced. YES!!!!!
After a while they brought the ladder, we climbed down, stood in the boulder room for a while, then walked back down to the queue area and exited. I now have 2 re-ad passes to have fun with.
Yay for my first evac =D
