Yeah, it's entirely possible for a group who was seated later to leave the building first.
Still the whole thing seems absolutely bizarre. Even if you are annoyed at someone for squeezing ahead in line - wouldn't complaining to the nearest CM be the obvious solution anyway? - once you got into the theater and realized that it didn't impact you at all in terms of your time, wouldn't you just let it go? What kind of demented person would hold onto that hostility for something that had no impact on them other than moving to the side for a few seconds in line?
You see people say they had to leave for the bathroom etc but how many people do you ever see exit the line.. in theory if youve been in line 30 minutes, you should have seen this person alreadyExiting and re-entering queues for bathroom emergencies, especially with little ones involved, should be excused. Going back to retrieve a phone which could easily be stolen and re-entering the line is also excusable. Big difference between those instances and someone rudely holding a place for other family members to push in later. Two different ballparks, imo.
Why do people do that. Is it just narrow mindedness?Whatever punishment is levied against the guests in the fight should also be thrown at the video maker for filming in portrait and not landscape.
j/k....but maybe not....
Kids are sometimes the worst offenders. I remember one time there were a bunch of us waiting to get in to see the Lion King when it was still where Pandora is now. It was the first show and there were only about 20 of us waiting. I was at the back of the line, (actually just a group) lines aren't necessary for a show. Anyway a young girl and her mother came up behind me. I then watched the girl slowly work her way up toward the front by going around the side of us. Once she got there she just casually stood there for awhile and then acted like her mother had just come up and yelled out "I'm up here, Mom! Then the mother said... oh, good I found you and proceeded to go up to the front and stand with her daughter.It’s my understanding the person who went to retrieve her phone was 14 yo. If so, makes blocking her even worse. She’s a kid.
I'm glad I'm not the only nerd that finds portrait filmers annoying. Nothing makes me turn off a video faster than portrait mode. LolWhatever punishment is levied against the guests in the fight should also be thrown at the video maker for filming in portrait and not landscape.

Disney has greeters at most lines.. why not give 'return' passes for those that exit the line?You see people say they had to leave for the bathroom etc but how many people do you ever see exit the line.. in theory if youve been in line 30 minutes, you should have seen this person already
Like the old red line time marker! Great idea!Disney has greeters at most lines.. why not give 'return' passes for those that exit the line?

Besides maybe taking a picture of family next to a unique part of the queue, I can't think of specific ways to show proof to a CM or guests where someonewas in line. Realistically Disney should have not built queues to hold people for multiple hours without access to a restroom. Somewhere I read FOP was built to hold up to 6 hours.I'd imagine most people don't actually make their way all the way through the line to come out the front, they're more likely to duck under a side chain. Less shoving past people that way. So unless they have someone watching all exposed areas of the queue, that's not going to work.
And telling people to go up after leaving any way they can and say they left the line and need a pass is an obvious way to just lie and get one.
To say nothing of the difficulty of getting that information out there. They can't even convey to everyone that they need a park reservation to get in. Plenty of people would get accused of cutting, with "proof" in the form of a lack of pass, because they just had no idea they'd implemented a line return pass system.
...not to mention greasy and salty!Hey! At least these folks were not attacking each other with those large, tasty turkey legs. That could have been messy and sad.
There's no way FoP can hold a 6 hr queue. At under 3 hours it stretches out into the park to Africa.Besides maybe taking a picture of family next to a unique part of the queue, I can't think of specific ways to show proof to a CM or guests where someonewas in line.

Hmmmmmmm. Didn't those hated COVID plexiglass barriers eliminate the line cutting?
You’re talking like a normal well adjusted person. Not the case here, and I’m sure expletive words were used between the two during the original altercation. So many people these days don’t have the ability(not well adjusted) to walk away from being “dissed,” (if that’s the right word).Yeah, it's entirely possible for a group who was seated later to leave the building first.

Makes you wonder if Disney's "security" only focus on the front of the parks and preventing thief of their own products than help in cases like this. XDIf that is truly the case, then Disney security is worthless.
Very good point. A group doesn't enter a queue, several individuals enter together. It should not be expected that you can join friends or family members at their spot in the queue later.Very few people ever leave a queue. In all your many hours standing in line, how often did you see people backtrack their way from midway in a line?
More commonly what happens is that upon entering, one member decides he first needs a bathroom break, or a snack, or forgot something from the stroller. The group enters the line regardless, and then later the other(s) want to join them.
This is how problems start. Policy is to wait and enter a line together.
As for this fight, a firehose would've worked wonders.
