Rustler Roundup


Cattle thieves have been hitting some of the ranches surrounding Thunder Mesa, so the town's Sheriff is putting together a posse to round up those rustlers. Interested persons may apply at the Rustler Roundup Shootin' Gallery in Frontierland, where a series of targets will test your skills as a marksman. Similar to shooting arcade attractions in the other Disney Parks, the Rustler Roundup Shootin' Gallery features a cartoonish western scene filled with gags ready to be triggered by sharpshooters aiming their infrared rifles.

The scene is comprised of three main sections. First up is the Twin Butte Gold Mine. There are fun plays on words here with some of the names represented. Check out the crate of surveying equipment addressed to Ewell B. Rich or the medicine man cart of Professor N. Clement Weathers. His Thunderbolt Elixir claims to be a "Miracle from the Heavens." Elsewhere, be sure to look for a case of bullets from Ames & Fyers.


The middle section is old Boot Hill. Here, the tombstones are partially in French, partially in English and completely tongue in cheek. Overlooking Boot Hill is a bunk house that isn't the most reputable of establishments. In fact, lucky shots may just discover it's a hideout for rustlers.

The final part of the scene is a farm, and it looks like the farmer has been dabbling in moonshine. He's got his own still, out behind the chicken house. If properly encouraged (by a good shot, of course), the chicken will lay an egg down through the chute and into the basket. Keep a close eye out, though, for human rustlers aren't the only thieves around. Looks like there's a fox in the hen house, and he's about to sneak out the side door!
