    Fake news, last time I heard...

    Disstevefan113 days ago

    Ya know how the MK transforms overnight from Halloween to Christmas? I head a rumor that is not happening this year. Is this just fake news?

    Dude you should see some of my posts when Fastpass ended and Disney started charging for lightning lanes. I'll pay for a multi thunder crappass when I get a lobotomy and pigs fly in the upside down. I'm going to UNI next year and I'm gonna piss away so much money there just to stick it to the mouse!

    Okay, I’m just giving you options for the week. You don’t have to be a jerk about it.

    hsisthebest15 days ago

    Yup, just spend more money ad I might have a good time. Buy that Hopper Pass, Buy that Lightning Lane, Stay on Site, pay $199 pp for a Christmas nigt that used to cost $39. LOL. I'm only going becuase I have 2 kids playing in the Thanksgiving band show at MK. I'll gladly save the money and go to UNI or DL in the summer.

    Are you buying park hoppers or one park per day? If hoppers, go to MK on a party day to enjoy low wait times, then return in the evening on a non-party night to see fireworks. If one per day, maybe get some Christmas party tickets and enjoy it.

    Magic Kingdom will close early for Christmas Parties 4 TIMES during Thanksgiving week/weekend. I am reluctantly going back to WDW for the first time since 2018 and it loks like it will suck more than ever!!

    No. I don't see that happening

    bmr159117 days ago

    That’s right. I’m thinking more of a day guest M&G.

    All problems of stalking aside, aren't Jack and Sally in Tinkerbell's old spot?

    Ayla17 days ago

    Ah. That explains why I'm clueless. 😂

    Stupido17 days ago

    Elf character from the parade that went viral on tik tok last season. It was starting to get a little unhealthy with people stalking this performer, so I doubt they'd want to give them more attention.
