A series of popular ads running since the late 1980s following a noteworthy accomplishment, almost always something in the sports industry (i.e., winning the SuperBowl), and involving one of the Ride/DisneyThemeParks. They went a little something like this:

* From 1998-2001, Creator/CartoonNetwork would have a cartoon special called "The Big Game" which was a spoof of the SuperBowl that aired the night before that game and would pit two traditional cartoon rivals against each other with commentary by then-FOX duo Pat Summerall and John Madden. The final match (in 2001) pitted WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes rivals Bugs and Daffy. After the game ([[spoiler:which Daffy wins 37-31]]), Summerall briefly poked at both the catchphrase and the Disney-Warner Bros. rivalry with his comment.

* Parodied by Phil Simms (former New York Giants quarterback and MVP of the SuperBowl this campaign was introduced in) during a locker room interview immediately afterward that included him remarked about him saying the phrase, then mocking it.

* Parodied in ''Series/ParkerLewisCantLost'': When Larry Kubiak finds out he has actually met his weight loss goals and can stay on the football team Parker asks:

* After DanielBryan and Wrestling/{{Kane}} won the WWE Tag Team Championships, they were seen bickering backstage, with Kane eventually walking off. A few seconds later, he reappeared on camera and threw Gatorade over Bryan. He then yells out exactly this and walks off proclaiming that he is the Tag Team Champions.

* After you win the Backyard Football Championship in ''[[BackyardSports Backyard Football]]'', a character always exclaims "I'm going to [[CaptainErsatz Walter Weasel World]]!"

* While the exact phrase was never used, many [[Creator/{{ABC}} TGIF]] programs had an episode (''Series/FullHouse'' and ''Series/StepByStep'' both had a two parter) where the main characters went to Disney World.

* BruceSpringsteen ended his recent Super Bowl halftime performance with "I'm going to Disneyland" as a ShoutOut.

* ''WesternAnimation/MyLifeAsATeenageRobot'' "Historionics": After escaping an island run amok with [[MrAltDisney Uncle]] [[WaltDisney Wizzly's]] robot duplicates of historical figures, Brad asks what they should do next. Tuck eagerly replies, "I'm going to Wizzly World!" to which Brad responds, "Um... No."

* ''{{Duckman}}'' exclaimed, "Yes! I'm going to Disney World!" after the judge presiding over his latest trial refuses to incarcerate him due to California's "three strikes" law.

* In the 2000s, a Disney Parks commercial aired weeks before the Super Bowl with NFL players chanting the phrase [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_bY75hnNzyk as a mantra during their training.]]
