''Wide Open Spaces'' is a ''WesternAnimation/{{Classic Disney Short|s}}'' from 1947 starring WesternAnimation/DonaldDuck.
The short centers on Donald driving deep in the night and deciding to sleep outside in the wilderness after refusing the pricey cot on the porch of a fully booked motel he came across. Of course, with [[BornUnlucky Donald]] [[HairTriggerTemper being]] [[KarmicButtMonkey Donald]], HilarityEnsues.
----
!!''Wide Open Spaces'' contains examples of:
* AllBalloonsHaveHelium: The mattress floats up in the sky while getting excessively inflated by the tree branch, even though it's being pumped with air.
* TheAllegedCar: Donald's [[CoolCar sleek convertible]] is turned into a sputtering Ford Model T-looking jalopy after getting squashed by the IndyEscape boulder.
* AsideGlance: Donald turns towards the audience to [[ActuallyPrettyFunny chuckle awkwardly]] about being reduced to a flattened state after blowing into the mattress too hard, before popping back normal.
* BadVibrations: The boulder makes the earth tremble as it tumbles down the hill, waking Donald up in time to attempt an escape.
* {{Balloonacy}}: A variant. Donald is lifted off the ground while laying on the overpumped mattress, before it deflates flying away MagicCarpet-style back to the motel.
* BlanketTugOWar: Donald has it with a [[FiendishFish large toothy fish]] he ends up sleeping with after falling underwater.
* CactusCushion: Where Donald ends up sleeping in the ending. For added comedic effect, the cactus is [[CactusPerson vaguely humanized]], as it quite literally embraces Donald, its "head" wears a [[FlowersOfFemininity flower of femininity]] and appears to have a serene smiling face.
* ContrivedCoincidence: The deflating mattress just happens to fly Donald all the way back to the Hold Up Motel, landing right on the cot in the porch and in a manner that makes Donald ring the doorbell to alert the owner of his presence immediately.
* DisasterDominoes: Instead of simply putting the stone that bothered him aside, Donald angrily throws it far away, sending it up to the top of a pointy hill where it falls back and pushes an alignment of progressively larger rocks that [[IndyEscape sends a huge boulder towards him]].
* DisproportionateRetribution: Donald could've simply said no and leave after being told that the cot costs 16 dollars instead of assaulting the motel owner by tying his arm into a knot. The man understandably responds with a LiteralAssKicking.
* DoubleTake: Happens when Donald realizes he's underwater next to a fish.
* DrivesLikeCrazy: Donald is introduced driving his car erratically going constantly off-road, due to his tiredness.
* ExhaustionInducedIdiocy: The cause of all the poor choices Donald consistently makes throughout the short.
* EyePop: Donald does it several times. When he [[ToonPhysics stops a high fall in mid-air]] and grabs a cushion for a soft landing, when he sees the boulder coming towards him, and when he and the fish freak each other out.
* TheFaceless: The motel owner's face is never shown.
* ForWantOfANail / FromBadToWorse: For the sake of not paying 16 dollars, Donald spends a disastrous night in the outdoors, his CoolCar gets wrecked, he barely gets any sleep [[AllForNothing and ends up giving the 16 dollars anyway]] before being promptly dumped onto a cactus.
* GettingReadyForBedPlot
* HeavySleeper: Going underwater doesn't wake Donald up, neither does flying in mid-air on top of the deflating mattress or falling head first and ending up in the thorny embrace of a cactus.
* HollywoodDarkness: A woodland with no street lights should be pretty dark even on a clear night, instead everything is visibly lit in a moody shade of blue.
* HorribleCampingTrip: The short is about Donald trying to sleep in the woods on an air mattress, and how he manages to mess it up due to his propensity of [[EnmityWithAnObject troubling himself with inanimate things]].
* InflatingBodyGag: After failing to pump up the mattress twice, Donald decides to blow it up himself, inhaling a massive amount of air that [[TemporaryBulkChange balloons his body]] before puffing it all in.
* LaserGuidedKarma:
** What was Donald expecting to happen after assaulting the motel owner other than getting a good old kick in the butt and have him [[TookALevelInJerkass take a level in jerkass]] in the ending?
** On a minor instance, it doesn't occur to him that the air mattress is giving him a hard time with AmusingInjuries each time it deflates because he keeps pumping it too much.
** Throwing the small rock so far away instead of just putting it aside causes a DisasterDominoes that wrecks Donald's car.
** Due to his VacuumMouth and SuperBreath snoring, Donald causes the wobbly branch of a pine tree to smack him in the face.

* MickeyMousing: When the mattress deflates sending back all the air Donald pumped, the handle of the pump beats his butt whilst synchronized to a musical drumming.
* MurphysBed: The air mattress proves difficult to inflate, randomly swells up to make Donald fall off a cliff and takes him back to the motel almost in retaliation for causing the excessive pumping it received from the tree branch.
* OneDimensionalThinking: Donald never consider turning his car to any side to get out of the boulder's path.
* ThePreciousPreciousCar: It's [[KarmicButtMonkey Donald Duck]]. Of course if he's introduced driving a big, fancy looking car it's ''NOT'' gonna stay that way.
* RecycledAnimation: The animation of Donald's car traveling in the distance as he's arriving at the motel is repurposed when he drives towards the woodland after a SceneTransition.
* RubberHoseLimbs: The motel owner appears to be a RubberMan given how his arm gets [[AmusingInjuries tied into a knot]] and then he kicks Donald away with a ''very'' stretchy leg.
* RuleOfFunny:
** Donald accidentally bends the rod that goes into the pump, but instead of straightening it back, he bends the whole pump giving it the same crooked shape the rod has. ''And it works''.
** Upon noticing the boulder coming at him, Donald has WheelOFeet when he runs away in a panic, which is to be expected... but then the ''wheels'' of his car do it too when he speeds up.
** The mattress randomly swelling up to put Donald on a vertical position and have his opening and closing beak [[{{Sleepwalking}} sleepwalk]] him over a cliff and fall into the body of water below.
* SleeplessAlarmClock: The motel owner rings an alarm clock against Donald's head mere seconds after making him hand over the 16 dollars because the time to use the cot has run out.
* SquashedFlat: A variation. Donald becomes paper-thin after blowing into the inflatable mattress too intensely, emptying himself.
* WackySoundEffect: The air mattress makes an ascending xylophone sound when Donald unrolls it, and then produces strange, flatulent rubber razzer-like noises while getting pumped the first time. In the end, as Donald overturns towards the cactus, honking noises are heard.
* WaterWakeUp: Averted. Falling to the bottom of a lake doesn't wake Donald up, he continues to sleep with SuperNotDrowningSkills next to a fish.
* {{Wipe}}: Used for three scene transitions throughout the short.
* WraparoundBackground: Occurs when Donald attempts to flee from the boulder.
