Magic Kingdom No Longer to be Dry

[englanddg]

The comment that you quoted was completely unrelated to the alcohol question. I was commenting on the need to have electronic social devices with you. I don't know how one takes in the marvel that is WDW and at the same time devote time to electronic communication. That one is certainly under the category of "whatever works for you", but it is a puzzle to me. I even understand the killing time in line aspect...but there is something else one can do and that is socialize with the other human life forms also in the line.

Sorry. I read it out of context then.

Not a problem. I just wanted to be sure that you knew that I had separated the two, even if not very well.

Oh boy. Am I going to get wasted. I mean seriously wasted.

I'm not just talking drunk either, I mean plastered. Like female-college-freshman-after-a-three-budlight-beerbong-wasted. They will find me sans pants and sobbing uncontrollably in the disgusting waters of It's a Small World. Every boat that passes by will be my new best friend and I will tell them that repeatedly as I awkwardly try to hug them and offer them a sip of my Chardonay.

This is amazing. I'm shaking I'm so excited. Finally I have an excuse to lick the face of a princess to see if the 3lbs of make-up they wear is really butter based like I had read on here. Finally an excuse to wear my Mickey beer helmet and a reason to yell "Go Bears" as loud and as much as I can during the Carousel of Progress. The WEDway people mover will be transportation from the projectile vomit spraying future. I will singlehandedly show Disney what a horrible idea this was. Yes sir, my day has finally come.

Going to go type up a pre-trip report on this one immediately.

Really unnecessary to add beer and wine to a menu at the Magic Kingdom. I know that profits are always looked for - but the prices charged for food and drink at all the parks provide this. However, if wine offered on menu for a nice sit-down dinner - I'll partake.

All of this has been done before many times and they weren't even serving wine at the Magic Kingdom.

lol.

I can't imagine that sequence of events has ever been attempted even once, let alone many times.

Not in one sequence of course...but individually, by different people, and they might or might not have been under the influence of the demon alcohol.

Budweiser Clydesdales now making regular rounds up and down main street!

Off topic on my part but those horses are so cute

I would counter that not having beer and wine available at the Magic Kingdom was unnecessary.

 

[RSoxNo1]

people keep tossing out these prices as barriers to drinking more...

$7-$10 isn't expensive for beers honestly. In urban areas, not uncommon for a beer to be $6-$7 at a club. At a sporting event? forget it..

I mean, I enjoy my $4.25 bottled beer at our local townie bar.. but I don't have any delusions that when I head into DC that I expect a sub-$5 beer everywhere.

You can get ripped at Applebees on applejuice for $1.99 a glass.

Of course, you'll need to sit there for a couple weeks for the juice to ferment.
The free rolls help with this.

I would have liked to have seen tdo do the same thing that dl has done, and have a private club that only served. I doubt anyone is going to get smashed, but still it chips away at what Walt did differently.

Having to make a reservation 6 months out, pretty much makes it a private club.

Nobody will be able to walk up and get in.

I'm partial to the dog that gets to ride along. Just got to see them when I was working red socks spring training last year.

The difference is at DL it's a full bar with "VIP" guests. People could really get ripped and stumble out into the park. At BOG you have to be seated for dinner to get served and only beer and wine. In my opinion a club with a full bar is a lot more likely to result in drunk guests. Just because people are labeled VIPs or have the money to buy a membership doesn't mean they will behave better or have more class. Watch TMZ any night to see how well behaved VIPs sometimes are.

You can get ripped at Club 33, but you can't just walk in and order drinks -- like BOG, you have to be seated for a meal to get served booze.

I've had to think really hard on this one. As long as this does not become a "gateway" to beer and wine all over, I think I can handle it. It is not going to be an easy reservation to get and there won't be a walk up window or a stand alone bar ( I think). It would be hypocritical for me to say no to booze ever. I have partaken of many an adult beverage in the resorts and made a somewhat inebriated path to the MK in the past. Granted I was the laughing happy drunk. I'm a little too old to be doing that a lot now. The hangovers come a whole lot easier. There have also been a few times where I started to ask for the wine list at dinner in the MK before catching myself. Wine with a nice dinner is just a natural fit for me. Yet, I still worry how far this will go. I'm not entirely sure it is necessary. I can see arguments either way but would still yield to tradition on this one and support no. But yes, assuming it never expands from there, won't bother me.

 

[psukardi]

If BOG wants to serve beer & wine that's fine. I can't imagine going to a "fine dining" place and being told, "sorry sir we don't have a wine list...but here is our selection of fruit juices and soda pops"
