First, let me say that this thread is totally theoretical. I have no plans to do this whatsoever, but it was something that came up and got me curious.
I recently found out about a travel agency based out of Japan that does tours for stuffed animals. People can actually send their stuffed animals to this place in Japan and (for a fee) they will take your stuffed animal around to do different tours and activities around Tokyo and Japan and send them back with lots of photos of the stuffed critters as they tour Japan, all of which is pretty darn cute.
What if someone wanted to start a business doing the same thing...but the business involved offering tours taking the stuffed animals to WDW and getting photos of stuffed animals going around the parks and doing activities and riding on attractions and eating in the restaurants and such? What would WDW's policy on doing 'business' inside the parks like this be?
I'm thinking there might not be a problem at first, but that if the person did this as a business and showed up to the parks regularly taking photos with stuffed animals on a frequent basis, that eventually WDW people are going to wonder what it's about.
So, would running a business where someone would take stuffed animals into the parks as paid 'tours' to take photos of them and such to send back to their owners be allowed by WDW or not? And are there other people out there who actually have some kind of personal business that 'uses' WDW property for their business but yet is not affiliated to WDW?
