The event did not go smoothly. The park was overcrowded as the by-invitation-only affair was plagued with counterfeit tickets. All major roads nearby were empty. The temperature was an unusually high 101°F (38°C), and a plumbers’ strike left many of the park’s drinking fountains dry. The asphalt that had been poured just that morning was so soft that ladies’ high-heeled shoes sank in. Vendors ran out of food. A gas leak in Fantasyland caused Adventureland, Frontierland, and Fantasyland to close for the afternoon

This perhaps gave Disney the creative spark whence Disneyland originated. The fairgrounds for the World’s Fair were a cheaply constructed set of individual “Country” areas from around the world and areas representing various time periods of man, it also included many “rides” including the first Ferris wheel, sky ride, a passenger train that circled the perimeter, Wild West Show, etc. Although the 1893 World’s Fair was meant only to last a summer in Chicago,in Southern California the weather was accommodating to a “Fair Grounds” of stucco buildings that would otherwise disintegrate in the rain, snow and ice of other climates. One can see the resemblance of a “Land” filled with “rides” and a fair grounds with differently themed areas to the Disneyland created 60 years later in the 1950s as the population of America for the first time shifted West into desert climes
