Crystal Palace now offering alcohol

[flynnibus]

If it were just Walt's business practices (a notoriously poor business gambler) instead of his vision we wouldn't be talking on this board today, it would have been yet another failed enterprise. Disney languished during the years they spouted only the holy "Walt would have" mantra.

No the conpany floundered because of paralysis and creative direction. (Mostly in the studio). The 'wwwd' was an insecurity in they couldnt reach beyond his shadow. It was never about dated morals or beliefs. The parks never wavered under that burden. The studios need to adapt to consumer preference... because no obe goes to see the same movie month after month. The parks are a different beast.

The sophisticated and wholesome brand disney built is not stale.

I enjoy my beer but would never pay the insane price of $7.25 for a beer. Never wanted one that bad.

Beers in NYC are often this much or more at many bars and restaurants. A beer at a New York Mets game is $10.50. Drinks in Broadway theatres can be $25.00 or more. Seriously. These Disney prices seem almost like bargains to me.

MK for kids only??? I don't think so! The same people who take their kids to the MK also take them to Epcot, Animal Kingdom and Hollywood etc. There is alcohol there so what's the difference??? Their parents probably have a six pack at home in the fridge. Everything in the Universe changes daily....that's life.

Haha I know when people talk about the prices of food/drinks I’m like, but that’s cheap. But I live in the suburbs of NYC so my normal meter is off

Ironically the Disney Markup on beer is way more tolerable than the rest of the menu.

You'll pay $5-$8 for a beer at a ordinary bar... so Disney's markup is just tolerable... yet people complain. Yet happily pay $20-$35 for entrees that should be $12-$15... go figure..

MAGIC KINGDOM SERVES ALCOHOL
"head for the bunkers, the end is neigh!"

as a drinking guy I can say im thrilled that I can enjoy myself in MK and choose to have a nice meal with a beer in the evening at Disney world!

is having a single beer in the evening gonna turn me into a drunken slob! no! lol

I don't have an issue with it at all as long as Disney manage it effectively it will be fine and the world will keep turning.

People are starting to report that Heffalumps and Woozles now meet at Crystal Palace. But oddly, only the adults say they can see them.
