Balzac to leave?

[ToTBellHop]

I'm sorry but this is the funniest thread I've read in a while. :lol: I guess its true what they say about guys (meaning me) never growing up.

I just can't believe they actually went with the company name "Balzac". No one thought it might be an issue? That's almost as bad as opening an attraction called MILF.

It's not just the guys who aren't growing up - I'm a sitting at work laughing so loud they stopped in to see what was so funny and when I said Balzacs they just slowly backed away :lookaroun :ROFLOL: :ROFLOL:

I have to agree! I know I am giggling like I am 12 again! :ROFLOL: :ROFLOL: :ROFLOL:

Good Gravy!!!!

With closing an operation like that in a place as large as Disney, that's really going to hit Balzaks hard. That's gotta hurt them.

I mean if you really think about it, where else other than Disney would you see someone throwing large balls out into a crowd and people smacking them back to you. I guess maybe at a concert.

it was always a horrible name for a company...

Yes. Very misleading I would say.:ROFLOL:

My kids LOVED the Balzacs! I took a well-needed rest in Tomorrowland while my son played with the Balzac girl.

Didn't know that was an option. Play with the girl and not the balzac. Hmmmm. Interesting.

balzacs is THE best thing since sliced bread - pfft you lot are boring

i got one when i was there - and mrs cmatt loved playing with my balzac in the pool...

 

[Buzzforprez]

It's too bad that they'll be closing, but like anything else, once it's been around a while it get's old and just shrivels up and goes away, Balzacs would be no different.

So an old balzac just shrivels up and goes away. Always wondered what happened to them. So many people I work with that just don't seem to have a balzac anymore. :ROFLOL:

OK, I'll try to stop now. Really I will. Really.:wave:

 

[Buzzforprez]

I saw this lady get hit in the chin with the Balzac one time, she wasn't very happy about it.

No really. I'm trying really hard to stop. But this? How can I resist this? :zipit:

I know i'm going to get laughed at for this, but...What exactly IS a Balzac? Clearly not a store that sells the collected works of Honore de Balzac (which as a lit major was my first thought). Image Googling disney world balzac didn't turn up any answers, and googling Balzak...well let's just say it gave me the wrong definition.

My best guess it that they are balloons or ball/balloons?

Anyone remember that SNL skit with Alec Baldwin playing a chocolatier whose last name was Shweaty and he sold truffle-nut like things that he called balls?

this is the best thread ive read on here EVER. ive not laughed so hard in quite awhile. you guys are great! :ROFLOL: <br><br>
btw, i was almost knocked over by one of the really big...those things...last time i was there. i wonder if any of the employees has ever gotten yelled at by someone they hit who just wasnt paying attention to the giant ball headed for them...i think i would be angry...:shrug:

So your saying that someone hit you with their really big balzac huh? And that hitting someone with your balzac should get you in trouble with management. Where I'm from I think it would actually result in criminal charges being filed. Also, from what I see here it would seem like everyone was walking around playing with their balzacs. I find it hard to believe that everyone would be doing this. Maybe half of the people there but certainly not all of them. :ROFLOL:

 

[shanny]

goodness. we are sick people. lol. :lol:

 

[EpcotServo]

I for one won't miss the Balzac people throwing their balls at me all the time.

You'll all wish Balzac never left the first time you get a Croc thrown at you.

:ROFLOL:

 

[ToTBellHop]

Why can't we play with our crocs and balzacs at the same time? Walt would've wanted it that way!

You guys (and girls) crack me up. :lol: This makes the stress of the day so much easier.
