Orlando man charged with hitting a Disney security guard during fight over COVID-19 mask rule

The pod parking at Heathrow is amazing .

Haven't been through LHR in a couple of years. Lately it's been Gatwick. I did go LCY to Amsterdam last November. Loved that vs the other 2.

Mine is the Airport Tram!

On some days riding the airport tram at Orlando International , the gators can sometimes be seen sunning themselves by the bodies of water, grassy areas by the airport runways.

I’m debating going to chocolateland for my daughters birthday this week for the day.

88 is not looking great.

Which makes me think if I have any shot of going to Orlando later this year I best be hoping for an unseasonably early winter.

Besides, it's harder to breathe in the chocolate fumes with the mask on...

 

[Smiley/OCD]

What's the name of that "Full Body Cavity Search" ride again?

And no upcharge!

Death by Chocolate. I could think of worse ways.

And no upcharge!

Not for the basic search. But gloves and K-Y are extra...

Well, wait a minute...if Disney is expected to supply the masks, why can't that be supplied for free?

What are you looking for -- some kind of deluxe upcharged entry experience?

Has anyone visited the Perfume store at Epcot/France?. The intense scents of perfumes can knock someone out.

 

[JoeCamel]

Yup, I mean, who needs WDW's Monorail when you've got the airport's shaky version making it a thrilling experience. Woohoo!

The Buddy narration takes these to the "classic treasures" level. On par with SSE if I may?

Depends if your talking Walter , Jeremy or Judy .

Just wait til we get the Joe Pesci narration at SSE. It will easily become the most popular ride in EPCOT on day 1.

"Da Yutes uzed to beat da crap out of dis ting called pappy-russ so deys could makes paper".

I'd use all my FP on this one ride.

I'll wait for the Joe Pasquale version

I wonder what time of day it was?

eta: check downthread but found the time was 4:40pm high was 97 that day and a thunderstorm dropped the temps about that time. He was either hot or wet and maybe both.

...but it really doesn't matter. Either you follow the rules or don't go to the park, and at no time is physical assault
a proper response for disagreeing with the rules.

 

[bromeo57]

He knew the rule before he entered the park. Don’t go if you don’t like the rules.

 

[Lilofan]

I get the feeling, from his mugshot, that this isn’t his first time in lock up.

He's a local and his arrest record includes being a convicted felon.

I've been filling in at a friend's small hardware store while the college I work at is closed. The City of Charleston requires masks indoors, and has for months, yet I daily have completely sober men at all hours of the day threaten me when I politely ask them to wear one, and offer a free disposable mask.

I'm less than five feet tall and 130 lbs soaking wet, but the alpha male is threatened by me and a piece of fabric. Don't blame the booze, or the security guard 's manner, this is who this jerk is.

It’s not as bad as where I work, but people are definitely up in arms over masks. Had a lady tell me “I forgot we live in a communist country now” when I asked her to wear one. Like yeah, a local mandate to wear a mask during a pandemic that’s killed well over 100,000 people is communism. Lol.

Lots of times they’ll wear one to get past the person at the front of the store, then take them off immediately after. Unfortunately the only people who can ask them to wear one are at the front of the store and are in fitting room. Not on salesfloor. Sigh.

 

[erasure fan1]

but why come to the parks if you can't handle a simple mask rule?

That is the bigger problem with the world right now. All too often, instead of saying, well this isnt for me, and just doing something else. They ignore rules, cause a scene, start a boycott... The mindset right now is, only I matter. And if you don't get your way? Throw a tantrum like a 3yr old.

I’m at Epcot right now. 99% mask compliance, literal walk on’s, test track and frozen included. Selfishly this might be the best experience I’ve ever had as an adult at this park. CM’s are in great spirits regardless of the situation they are in. I’m at the “relaxation station“ at Rose and Crown enjoying a Guinness enjoying the atomosphere without the crowds. Not sustainable for Disney but if you can and are comfortable going to the parks, now is the time.

Have one for me, living vicariously in the Northeast.
