Oh really? Last time I was there, about a week ago, it looked like they had a lot more work to do yet.

On the exterior, yes, but that should also come together quickly. If they're at the point of adding finishes to the interior as the various Instagram posts have indicated (e.g. the terrazzo floors, the dichroic glass, etc.), they have to be close to completion on that end of the building. Doesn't mean they'll necessarily have staff to open it in a timely manner, though. Also, the table service restaurant looks like it's lagging behind the other parts by quite a bit.

This is another offering they wanted for 7/1. We will see if it happens. They frequently fall behind on projects at Epcot, you may have noticed.

Seems practically impossible for them to have it open in two weeks, if 7/1 were still planned I would imagine they'd have announced it by now.

I think it would be silly to announce that a gift shop is opening in 2 weeks.

You underestimate Disney's ability to hype up the bare minimum.

Floors are generally one of the last things to go in. Some places will have cabinetry and other such permanent items installed before flooring and others will have it installed after, but for the most part, the floors are last in a build (so they don't get scratched/marked up, etc.). If they REALLY wanted to (and had the available staff), they could probably open in a few days.

I think terrazzo generally goes in before durable goods. If we were talking vinyl, plank, or carpet, I'd agree with you.

It really depends on what the customer wants to do...hubby likes the floor to be done before durable goods to avoid potential issues in the future with renovations, but that doesn't always happen.
My husband is a flooring installer.

Does it come with a cupcake? And, some Beverly to wash it down?
Those are Premium Ticket experiences, only an additional $99/person for each. (One 4oz cup of Beverly maximum per person)
TDO and Bob have to prop up that quarterly bottom line, you know. D+ isn’t making $472 quadrillion in profits yet. God forbid the stock drop a few pennies due to reality.

I mean, this doesn't really seem farfetched.
Scary, isn't it? And there are plenty of rubes who would buy it. Sadly.

If they were gonna change it you'd think they'd just take the springs coke store model and make club cool a bar for expensive coke cocktails and coke merch

I know it’s pretty unlikely at this point, but if they managed to open this place on 7/1 I would be ecstatic. That day will be my last day at the parks until probably late this year if not next year. Knowing my luck, they’ll decide to open it on 7/2 instead just to spite me lol

I hope that we get a better version of Club Cool. If not then there was no point in getting rid of the old one. Unless it was built on indian burial ground.
