Dude. You went to Walt Disney World on New Years Eve!! The #5 destination in the USA this year for NYE. Of course its going to take longer to get a reprint of your AP and I completely understand them not wanting to store your tripod for you too. If your expecting close to 80,000 people in the park could you imagine how many tripods they would have to store. If they did it for you that day they would have to do it for everybody. There are always lockers you can rent if you don't want to carry something around. Now rude CM's is a different story, that should never be allowed. But you can't expect things to be run exactly the same on NYE as they are any other day, its just not going to happen.
I should have been more clear, so read the post that is hopefully directly above this one to clarify things. As far as the AP reprint, it shouldn't have occured. From what the few main entrance CM's I've spoken to have told me, they should've just verified my ID with the name on my AP and I should have been let in. The turnstile CM should have just let me through and saved me the 30 minutes. But they didn't, and that's what made me mad. I could've had the AP reprint done at another time, which is what I would've done, had the CM done their job and verified ID. It is NOT a Cast Members job to inconvenience the guests.
