Notice of application to sell alcohol IN Disneyland on display - Page 3

Morrigoon · 12-10-2007, 02:47 PM

I think only time will tell Kevy. When they opened DCA with alcohol, many of us objected then, saying it was a slippery slope to wanting to sell it in DL. I see this as another step in that direction. Not right away, of course, as the public will have to have time to "get used to the idea". I don't even accuse them of necessarily planning to do it now. Maybe they genuinely think they're only doing this to make serving alcohol at private parties easier. But who's to say that management 10 years from now won't wonder why they aren't just selling it during the day?

Why is it bad to sell alcohol inside DL? Feh... shall I name names?

I promise I'll behave!

I kind of like the idea of theming the drinks to the land, but I do worry about public drunkenness since there is a contingent that can't handle themselves. Disneyland has been a haven from them, really.

Though as noted, it isn't really a problem in DCA.

Selling booze in Disneyland is a step toward crass public ... I was going to say consumerism but they already do that. It's something cheap and tawdry, and I think I expect better of Disney on the whole.

I've seen photos from the Cove Bar that would scream otherwise.

And, from what I've heard, some Club 33 memberships have even been suspended due to some guests getting out of hand.

I think hard liquor in any of the parks is a bad idea.

Again - why is everyone looking at me? It's not like I have a history of bad behavior when I...

Oh, never mind.

Oh yeah... forgot about you, Kevy!

I guess I don't go to the right parties.

No ABG, you don't go to the wrong parties

Lately I haven't even been able to get to the right parties.
