There was an exhibit at Olentangy Park called Mickey Mouse Town featuring over 500 white mice.[1] Thomas Slack of Powell, Ohio, was the custodian and created the various miniature park rides for the mice to play on including Ferris Wheels, Merry-Go-Rounds, and a "Mickey Mouse Hotel."[2] After the park's closure, the exhibit was moved to the Haenlein Brothers' new Zoo Amusement Park across from the Columbus Zoo.[3]
