Disney has a knack for weaving subtle tributes into their new attractions, and Tiana’s Bayou Adventure at Magic Kingdom is no exception. As fans explore the re-imagined Frontierland attraction, many have picked out a heartfelt nod to the beloved Splash Mountain within the queue’s barn.

Perched on a shelf above Tiana’s desk, this tribute is a great Easter egg for eagle-eyed fans. Among the items, you’ll find a green flower pot flanked by small statues of a bear, a fox, and a rabbit. These figures are charming references to Br’er Bear, Br’er Fox, and Br’er Rabbit, the iconic characters of Splash Mountain.
On the other side of the pot, there’s a frog statue, a subtle homage to Br’er Frog, the narrator of the classic ride. You will also note a riverboat next to the frog, which seems to be a nod to the riverboat scene guests would encounter in the large Splash Mountain finale scene.
The shelf also includes cherished photos of Tiana with Naveen and her parents, but it’s the interspersed props that make the tribute truly special. These subtle references to Splash Mountain honor the ride’s legacy while celebrating the new adventure with Tiana.
