This is a pretty random topic, but it's something that I've always wondered about. Has anyone ever heard of someone hiding out in the theme parks and staying over night?
With the number of people that visit Disney's theme parks, and the number of nooks and hidden areas, I have always wondered if anyone has ever tried to "camp out" overnight in any of the parks. I would think that you would have to be pretty desperate to use this technique to squeeze another day out of your theme park ticket... but it seems plausible that someone would try it, just to see if it could be done.
I know that Disney has a security and plenty of cameras. They probably also employ motion sensors and other security technologies (do they?). But, there are just so many places one could hide out.
On a recent trip to EPCOT, I walked around for about an hour after the park closed. And for long stretches of time... I saw nobody. No patrons, no cast members, and no security guards.
Similarly, I would think that it would be fairly easy to hide out on Disney property, in general (not in the parks). There is just so much land that I would think that it would be very difficult to prevent someone from trespassing. Has anyone ever heard of someone trying to camp out overnight on Disney property? Or, for that matter, just hiking around off the beaten path?
Again, I don't know why anyone would do this. I certainly have no intention of trying. But, as I mentioned, I am just curious to know if anyone has ever tried this (if they had, I am sure the cast member would have stories).
