The Duckburg University Neighborhood was originally going to be a part of Duckburg proper, a downtown university, if you will. But as I've reconsidered some of my ideas, I've moved it's location within the park, thus necessitating making it its own Neighborhood.
The first Duckburg University attraction will be Gyro's Flying Saucers based on the Gyro Gearloose character from Duck Tales and the Scrooge McDuck comic books. Gyro is known for his screwball inventions and Guests would get the chance to test ride his latest: the flying saucer! Disney has perfected the hovering vehicle over at California Adventure with the Tow Mater ride so it would be very easy to translate it into a new theme. For those who aren't aware of the Tow Mater ride, picture a GIANT game of air hockey combined with bumper cars. Guests float on the air in round vehicles bouncing off of each other much to everyone's delight.
Time-traveling adventures await Guests on the next attraction themed around Ludwig Von Drake, Disney's resident professor of everything. This simulator ride would take Guests through history as told through cartoons. In the process, though, Guests will also be brought through the history of cartoons starting with Gertie the Dinosaur right up to modern day Mickey Mouse. Guests will soar through 3d representations of some cartoon classics as an animatronic Ludwig guides them through the adventure.
For food, we are going back to the basics. The Campus Dining Hall would be a straight up cafeteria offering a HUGE variety of foods to please any palette. Quick service in all its simple elegance.
Finally, Guests could stop in at the Campus Bookstore where they could buy any if a variety of Disney-themed books or movies as well as Duckburg U apparel.
I picture Duckburg University as a quaint, quirky college-themed area where guests can experiment and learn all while having a great time!
