Earlier today the José animatronic in the ‘Gran Fiesta Tour,’ at the Mexico pavilion in EPCOT, somehow ended up laying on the floor during the shows today. Much like when Ursula’s head fell off at Disney California Adventure’s ‘Journey of the Little Mermaid’ and kept going, Jose kept on performing.
The attraction was shut down for a bit and when it reopened José had flown the coop. Or was more likely wheeled out.

No word on when José will return, but hopefully it will be soon. He seemed to be working fine, aside from being face down on the ground. But on the positive side we got to see his backside. It’s the backside of José.
The Twitter comments did not disappoint:
He’s leaning down because he’s begging Disney to give him his cigar back.

The general consensus seems to be Tequila or he was drinking around EPCOT.
