Lagoona Gator is the mascot of Disney's Typhoon Lagoon.
History[]
Background[]
Lagoona is a resident of Typhoon Lagoon, being an alligator which came to flourish following the hurricane that terraformed Placid Palms. He is noted for having a successful history of beach parties, music-playing, and surfing.
He came to reside under the heavily damaged clock-tower along the lagoon and the tourist-trade of the locals would make him the lagoon's mascot.
Development History[]
Lagoona was created in the late 90s in response to the popularity of his Blizzard Beach counterpart, Ice Gator. While Ice is a skier and sledder, he is a surfer. A third gator was planned for River Country named Ranger Gator, but was not implemented.[1]
Appearances[]
Typhoon Lagoon[]
When first entering the park, a sand sculpture (in reality a statue) of Lagoona can be seen. Within the park, his "home" can be found at the board room under the clock tower, featuring memorabilia related to his surfing career. He will make appearances here for meet 'n' greets.
