WHY IS THE EVENT CALLED PIN ROUTE 498? IS THERE SUCH A ROAD? Since this is a Disney Pin Trading "road trip," WDW had to select some place to travel. Route 498 does exist - it can be found in Dinoland, U.S.A. at Disney's Animal Kingdom® Theme Park. This road is found between Chester and Hester's Dino-Rama! and Chester and Hester's Dinosaur Treasures. The evening celebration will be held in this location. Why is it called "498?" To discover the answer, just think about what year and month Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park opened.

 

I HEARD THIS EVENT WILL ONLY FEATURE STITCH. IS THIS TRUE?
While Stitch will no doubt cause some sort of trouble, he is not the only Disney character that will be a part of this event. The pins created for this event also feature Mickey Mouse and friends, Dumbo and Timothy, Disney Villains, Jessica Rabbit, Chip and Dale and several others. The story of Pin Route 498 is as follows: Stitch has been taking a Coast to Coast trip down Route 498, collecting pins along the way. His journey ends in Dinoland, U.S.A. at Disney's Animal Kingdom® Theme Park. Chester and Hester Diggs are holding a celebration in honor of Stitch's great feat with a shindig called the "Route 498 Pinboree!"

Of course, the Diggs never do anything small. So, they have invited the WDAK News team and Disney Pin Traders from all over to greet Stitch as he crosses the finish line. While the News team and Pin Traders wait for Stitch, there will be games to play, rides to ride, delicious food and a DJ spinning tunes. There will also be a "pin dig" in the Boneyard and several Disney characters to meet. Once Stitch arrives, one lucky guest will be named the Ultimate Traveler with the help of a surprise visitor. The evening will end with a grand finale that will make this a Disney Pin Event to remember.
