Is there another pretzel company that has a location near Earl of Sandwich?

AllEars has a menu for "Wetzel's Pretzels and Haagen-Dazs Downtown Disney West Side" (updated February 2013) and a menu for "Wetzel's Pretzels Downtown Disney Marketplace" (updated July 2012) - I'm sure I can remember a Wetzel's Pretzels in the Marketplace back in August 2011 because we went to it but it was closing/had just closed for the night.

Wasn't the marketplace location just a kiosk

Wasn't one of the reasons PI died the ridiculous security problems it was having on the weekends with the teenagers? Because I see that problem repeating itself with a mall.

Urban myth.
PI did die because they ungated the island.
Which meant they had to stop the live entertainment on the two stages; can't give that away for free.
Had to stop the other entertainers that roamed the island.
Made PI less exclusive because everyone was there now including all the stroller moms.
Complete lack of advertising for the place.
Many say deliberate actions were taken to ruin the place so they could justify killing it.
Thought they could make more money leasing it to others rather than run clubs theemselves.

So you are saying the rumors of drug deals and gang wars are just urban legend? You are ruining my vision of bloods and crips in either red or blue Mickey Mouse ears shooting it out at the rock and roll beach club. I have heard from reliable sources that there was a certain local element that frequented PI that became problematic, but it wasn't due to security problems. I am sure the biggest driver was money. If PI was printing cash it would still be open.

Aren't there two Wetzel's locations?

Already answered, but yes, there's the kiosk at the Village. For whatever reason, they aren't listed on the Disney online maps at all any longer. Wetzel's site only lists the main location, which is the District address. The Village isn't changing much, so I'm only talking about the Westside location.

Last night I was at splitsville and I asked him if he knows anything about the dtd expansion and my waiter to me that the third floor of splitsville is an office building where they have the model and designs of the expansion and he listed every single thing that was listed on here. He said its going to look amazing but that it might not break down until next year

I discussed this at length in a previous blog, one I'm really happy I did because the more I can share the truth, the happier I am

The most important aspect of all of this that I feel NEEDS to be addressed is ...


When can we expect that giant neon Jessica Rabbit to be sold by MouseSurplus on eBay?
