Truly unfortunate vacation day for MK if a family was visiting for a few days and had no plans for Not so Scary Halloween party with dates of yesterday and tomorrow surrounding it.

Wasn't a bear issue last night

I'm sorry but this is ecologically ignorant. It sounds great in a tree-hugging sort of way but it's wrong on the facts.

Encounters with black bears are on the rise because the black bear population is BOOMING. It's not a case of development squeezing bears into smaller areas that then bleed into human-populated communities. It's a case of agricultural land (i.e. farms) being abandoned all up and down the East Coast of the United States and returned to their natural, forested states. More forests and fewer farms means more bears.

It is also interesting to note that the magic kingdom has been in that spot specifically for 52 years and the bear did not know a life before it.

New Limited time offering "Not so grizzly, runaway mine ride."

…how much is the ILL for that?

Also…breaking news across town: Comcast heard about this and they announced a new park to counter

MDE is showing that Pirates is open at least.

Pirates has been showing a wait time in MDE for most of the morning.

You need flip flops with better arch support for a day at WDW.

Literally my first thought when I saw the picture

So we can all stand-down and return to day-drinking, now? Phew.

All the lands?

Apparently not in the Big Thunder Mountain area yet.

You’re not actually blaming a bear, are you?

It is what it is…
I’ll be sure to have a big bowl of “Dust-e-oos” for breakfast tomorrow

Well like no one else like put the bear there. Blame is a weird word here though. It’s just nature. Rain gets me wet, and then it’s true that it’s the rain’s fault that I’m wet, but also I don’t blame the rain for getting me wet.

Too bad there are still park hopping restrictions. Probably would have helped relieve the crowd if people had been able to hop to a different park.

The bear was able to enjoy 4hours of 3 lands to himself for free, being a bear pays off.

 

[tparris]

Any change of routing?

Not sure, I was near town square when it came through.

Don't worry. They'll send him a bill at the buy-out rate, and for the lost revenue.

Just to prevent future issues, all Disney has to do is put up goal posts.
We all know The Bears avoid goal posts.

I was gonna say: he only had to wait 35 minutes for Peter Pan…

I thought this article was about the Disney stock price

 

[Disney Analyst]

The bear took Roy’s speech to heart, and I don’t blame them. Hope they enjoyed their vacation.

They should start up charging the tranquilizer and carry out experience, some of us need it after a day in the parks.

“May Walt Disney World bring joy and inspiration and New Knowledge to all who come to this happy place … a Magic Kingdom where the young at heart of all ages can laugh and play and learn – together.”

Those cargs were maxed out, man…

You need a Murse

There is zero point to cargo shorts unless you are maximizing the pocket use.
