UK Daily Mail "Disneyland will be removing a scene of captive women being auctioned off as brides from its Pirates of the Caribbean ride.
. . . Above them is a sign that reads: 'Auction: Take a Wench for a Bride' and a rope-tied, redheaded woman, in a pink dress and matching hat, is up for bid when patrons arrive.
. . .
"The ride will be closing on April 23 so the Anaheim theme park can remove the infamous scene, reported the Orange County Register.
"When the ride reopens around June 7, a new animatronic scene instead will feature a female pirate auctioning off loot.
"Since 1967, guests have ridden on one of the ride's small boats through several pirate-themed scenes before coming upon the bride auction.
. . . Above them is a sign that reads: 'Auction: Take a Wench for a Bride' and a rope-tied, redheaded woman, in a pink dress and matching hat, is up for bid when patrons arrive.
'Hey, are you selling her by the pound?' a pirate is heard yelling, while an auctioneer commands: 'Shift yer cargo, dearie, show 'em your larboard side.' " . . .
