I don't have a problem with people still willing to pay, what makes me cringe is those that compare the two implying that it justifies the rip off that Disney has become. Yes, it was always, relatively, expensive, but I'll bet they are sorry now that they didn't install a domed cover over all the parks so they could meter and charge for every breath we take.
Nope, I don’t have a problem with folks still willing to pay either…the market is the market, and folks are free to do whatever they want with their money. We don’t judge, but, along with the rising prices and continuing damn-demic, oldest DD decided that they don’t need to go right now.
We saved a bunch of cash deciding to rent a house in Ruidoso, New Mexico for a few days, instead.
I’m sure I could handle it, but, I’m not them, and they need to make what they feel are the right decisions for their family. They are grown, responsible, successful adults, and it’s none of my business. Ultimately, As long as we’re together as a family, I really don’t care what “Happy Place” we’re in…!!!!!
Hopefully, Emy and Audrey will be able to build a snowman, although they were actually able to do that a coupla’ times last winter…!!!!!
But, yes, I don’t know how anyone can compare WDW’s (or any other Disney Park, for that matter) restaurant, concession, gift shop, etc., revenue, that’s open roughly 12-ish hours a day, 365 days a year to any sports arena, field, or stadium in the same way.
As I posted before, even an MLB season only has 81 home games outta’ 162 total games in a regular season. The NBA is even way behind with only 41 total home games in a regular season outta’ 82.
I will definitely acquiesce if somebody can show me the numbers, and I definitely ain’t the sharpest knife in the drawer, but, I just don’t see how the math works out…
