5th Walt Disney World Theme Park?
shark6495 replied to Colonel_SoB_fan's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
Not true. The more days you add onto your ticket, the cheaper it becomes. They let you bring a cooler (no hard sided) into the park with food on it. You can even have grocery stores deliver food to your Disney hotel. If you stay on property, you get free parking and transportation. If you stay off property many hotels offer you free transportation to the parks. Disney is expensive if you go for 1 day, but if you go for a longer trip it becomes cheaper. #firstworldproblem If I want to squeeze in 6 Broadway shows while in NY, while seeing David Letterman, SNL, and Jimmy Fallon it would be difficult to do it as well. Not sure how having so much to do/see is stressful. Some people go to Disney to experience it for 3 days, some go for 14 days. Disney charges what people are willing to pay. Exactly. Not sure why there always seems to be an undertone of Disney hate on here. If a 5th gate ever does get built, its because of demand. Sometimes I feel that there is a pervasive hate on here of all things Disney because its popular with many many people..... -
This is the CBS PP right?

So if these people really got hurt due to negligence, the Facebook article is full of victim blamers..... 3 sides to all stories

Yes but things happen. Accidents happen. The job of the employee is to ensure that the accidents can be avoided. If this comes down to no one told them not to use it, then it's on the park.

I think slide tubes are made of a thicker construction/different internal design than tubes for the lazy river so the park decides which colors it wishes to use to signify the type of attraction the tube is made for. Some guests aren't the brightest.... I can't count the number of times that I have been waiting in line for Zoom Flume at Soak City and a guest gets in line carrying a Splash River tube... lots of lifeguard whistling ensues... I know how you meant it, but... Come on. Many guests, may not know the big difference between a Slide A's intertube vs Lazy River's intertube. If I recall correctly, Surf Cincinnati's and the Beach's rental tubes were good on every thing from wave pool, to river, to slides, etc. So the blame cannot be put onto any guest when there are employees sitting near by who have the explicit job to.... not let the wrong tube to be used...
-
As a more "typical vs enthusiast" type of guest, I wouldn't have any idea which tube goes to which slide. I would assume that the workers would tell me if my choice was the right one. Sort of how I assume if I get injured, the workers will triage me correctly. Very similar to how I assume that I will be safe on a coaster when they check my restraints....
-
So to me something like this seems pretty cut and dry. Either the inner tubes were correct or they weren't. If they were not the recommended type (size, shape, inflation, etc) and someone got hurt...... Actually besides single and doubles are there different types? I have only seen the big inflatable doughnut type.... Unless that come in different sizes
-
^^ that's fair but Phantom Theater had a consistent fear level. ... It had the "haunted" music, creepy busts, the Phantom in the lobby, the overt ghost theme. There was some comedy but I felt it at least it had the same theme as opposed to 2 different ones.

While yes the name would imply, maybe, something a bit more sinister. But the transition from kid friendly to not kid friendly is very stark. One moment, you are cruising down the line, a guy is being chases, skeleton relaxing. Some dude is playing a big organ... then you go down a hill making doors open/close.... then its dark and here are some big skeletons... then its over and the ride is done.....
-
However that ending with the skeletons and it's completely dark..... Not exactly the same tone as the previous 95% of the ride....
-
Not sure why it upsets you someone may want to wear this? They are not making you wear one.... This is one of those times where it literally doesn't negatively or positively affect your experience at all....
-
* not a lawyer * But if someone said hey this will be fine you will be okay..... Then I ride it and get hurt because it wasn't the appropriate gear for the ride...... Difference between getting hurt because of an accident and getting hurt due to (possible ) negligence.......

Disney Fastpass+ at Walt Disney World
shark6495 replied to bkroz's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
But Disney would argue that you (Terp) are not a target at WDW and they have a spot for someone like you (DL, for now) -
I wonder if any of the two guests asked "is this the ride tube?" And if the worker said yep..... Well then....

Teen Killed under zombie bus haunt
shark6495 replied to upstop's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
Probably a quick and easy safety fix will be to keep a mandatory distance from the vehicle to avoid that? Maybe a bumper system? -
However, with kiddy rides, they are almost always new to someone. Not many stay in that area once they are able to ride the big rides.... But a dedicated stage show in that area (indoors perhaps?) with a more enhancing family ride that children of 2-222 can enjoy would be great as well.... A kids area would be the spot to have more than any to have multiple shows and characters walking around....

Disney Fastpass+ at Walt Disney World
shark6495 replied to bkroz's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
Ultimately this is a smart move by WDW. You get more people to stay at your hotels. Then more demand than spots mean higher prices..... -
Disney Fastpass+ at Walt Disney World
shark6495 replied to bkroz's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
This is always a ridiculous convo. If you stay on property then this is a perk. Not a slight for those not staying on property. Is it fair for people to make reservations to a popular restaurant months in advance? I'm paying to stay on property because of the perks. The previous set up harmed the guests and families that may only get to go to Disney 1 time in their life. They may not know about the FP system of running around. This makes it fair, while yes it does hurt some of the spon visit people it rewards people who plan their trip out in advance. Also, the CF example is silly. WDW is not making anyone "buy" a special ticket. Just giving a perk to those staying on property by allowing them a perk over others not staying on perk. -
I wrote what I meant and I meant what I wrote, 100%.... Both new companies were created so the owner could sell off or close Sears or Kmart while retaining the rights to the Sears only brands. He then could, possibly, sell an exclusive deal with another company, say Autozone, to sell Craftsman tools or Best Buy selling Kenmores....

Vortex acting werid when I went last. (last weekend)
shark6495 replied to JubJester's topic in Trip Reports
Well if the ride was sparking I'm sure it would have been shut down. Also if it was sparking, I'm sure it would have been reported by more than 1 unknown person who is new to a fan blog. Also if it was sparking I would hope you would have reported it to someone. Was it sparking because the steel was grinding against the concrete as it sank? -
Or not... It may or may not add extra value to a potential buyer/seller if the web address is owned by others.... The owner of Sears/Kmart created two new desperate companies for Craftsman and Kenmore
